Overall, what I've discovered is that not a single one of the choices you've labelled "important" is actually important. And you seem to know they're not important, and are thus confused why we're agonizing over them. We're agonizing over them because you've labelled them as important, and you are the only one who knew that they're not.
I am truly sorry that after reading this much content, about 6 years worth, you still haven't grasped how this game works and what the intent of it is. maybe try another game instead of complaining about it all the time. And before you say "I'm giving criticism". just because it doesn't fit your ideals or perfect mould, doesn't make it bad, or incorrect.
