I understand how you don't really want the storyline to split anymore since it's already unmanageable, but I think that makes it less fun than your previous games since there's really only one non-dead outcome here regardless of what you choose.
I think it would be better to have it split just like before, and then when you make a game just have it pick one of the endings from the previous game to continue from. I would like that better.
Otherwise still great work!
