That's something of a turn-around. You always used to be a U6 man
through and through. As I still am.

U6 was the first game that I completely obsessed over. But I'd say U7 even
topped it.

A lot of people say that, but I don't agree.  U7 looked prettier,
certainly, but its conversation engine was nowhere near as versatile,
and while the plot as just as non-linear as U6, it got confusing if one
skipped ahead of Elizabeth and Abraham rather than being led around by
the nose, following them.
In U6, it didn't really matter what order one did things -- even
teleporting to the gargoyle world with the Orb of the Moons at the
start of the game had a built-in way of balancing things out.

....I've forgotten. What happened if one just slaughtered all the gargoyles?

He said 'it didn't really matter what ORDER one did things', not
'it didn't really matter what one did'.
U6 isn't self-stabilising enough to prevent sabotage >
There's a lot of ways you could total the game, killing key
plot characters and then burning their corpses.. casting VANISH
on critical objects might work too.

Perhaps it's because I played U7 most recently. I'll have to do U6
again now. And try to avoid cheating..
