@Gelugon_baat Haha. Your responses are all spot-on, I must say.

Although I agree that having more path options is preferable to linearity, it needs to be done well. Paths for the sake of paths makes for a frustrating experience that merely consumes time and nothing more. Nonlinearity needs to be buttressed by compelling reasons to take any number of paths available to you. Bioware is more than capable of this.
