UBW divergence point requires "SaberClear" variable in the 1 position to even give access to the necessary choice. It is also overridden if you have "SakuraRoute" at or over 3. Heaven's Feel one requires value of 3 or more in "SakuraRoute" variable to automatically get you into the HF route, and you can't have any without the initial requirement of "RinClear" at 1.

Heh. On one hand, bad VN adaptations(Hmmm, I heard Grisaia is incoming....) are extremely common. On the other, it's those bad anime that led me to their source material. MuvLuv, Tsukihime, Fate... Hell, Campione or Blade Dance for media other than VNs.

I actually like the flowchart format more. Preferences, I guess.
As for the second, I usually do it the other way. Check out incoming stuff, look up whether anything interesting is an adaptation, read the source material, proceed to be terribly disappointed while watching the series. Recent example: Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance.

I don't know if my body is ready for this... 1 hour prologue and 1 hour common route?

MY BODY IS READY.
Also Tsukhime anime a shit.
Yeah I used to have it (traded a friend for his old 3ds, best trade [on my side] ever). My old PS3 fried so I lost my save (which I'd probably restart anyway), but I sort of ruined it as I blocked my path with an optional quest which I'd have to grind a ton to do (ff13 spoilerish) It was in the cave on...pulse? right after the large fields.
Actually, Square's been pretty decent with PC ports lately, Tomb Raider and such for example, unless they have a separate PC team doing the port for them. Potentially it'll be the best port, or the absolute worst. I doubt there'll be any middle ground.
I'm probably going to buy it myself, I don't know if I cba playing through it again, but if it encourages more Final Fantasy on PC, so be it.
