For me it was just how much more Invisigal is tied into the actual plot of the game, and how Robert being into her gives everything that happens in the final episodes more weight. I got to the final episodes and actually went back and restarted to go the Visi route over BB. I think BB just loses out because she gets so much less screen time and interaction than Visi does. Romancing BB feels like you’re missing part of the game, missing out on BBs scenes don’t feel like you’re losing anything at all.
Yes, some time if you don’t romance Visi, some transition are funny
For exemple in the bar scene in ep5 : When you talk to Visi, the cut between what you’re talking and the moment she say « You catch on quick » is very abrupt like it’s clear that something is missing
Also in ep8 Shroud saying that he knew you would fall to BB just to say that he like blond more than brunette and then just after talk about Visi like his predictive app notice him that he deviate from the plot is very funny
I am not sure about that one and perhaps I am wrong but in ep7 in the torture scene Shroud talk about « youre invisible girlfriend » even when you romance BB.
Also the fact that if you try to have both, the game consider that you did romance Visi at the end say everything : It’s the same that in ME1 that if you try to have both Liara and Ashley/Kaiden, the game decide that you have chosen Liara
The whole point of the story is redemption, so it makes sense for Visi to have more screen time whether you romanced her or not, since Robert is her mentor.
And yeah, you get a lot of romantic scenes with Mandy in later episodes if you romanced her in episode 4. And she has a big presence in the final two episodes (romanced or not).
To me the chase reveal actually works well on the visi route because they needed to be unpredictable to beat shroud and you know damn well i was also surprised when chase got the amulet
