Hey, /jp/. Playing my first visual novel. What should I expect? How much is there to do in this game? How big of a difference do my actions make? How long will it take to "beat?" When do I find out that Saber is King Arthur?

Heroic spirits can come both from the future and the past. Shirou became a heroic spirit after his death and was summoned as archer, using Rin's pendant as a catalyst. He loathes being a heroic spirit and wants to kill Shirou.

So, are servants deceased spirits? When they are summoned, are they taken out of their timeline while they're alive or have they already been dead? If the latter, why do they already seem to know everything about the Holy Grail War?

Not really, Fate/Zero happens before FSN so you can just skip this shit and get to the good stuff.

It took me like 60 hours to get through all 3 routes. There's like 20 hours of cooking and breakfast scenes for "character development", as if needed all that to figure out Sakura is a filthy worm slut.

>How big of a difference do my actions make?

You'll know when you get killed

>When do I find out that Saber is King Arthur?

If you already know then what kind of stupid ass question is that? It probably happens around the time Berserker is about to rape Saber, literally ... Ilya was kind of a crazy bitch during Fate wasn't she

>What should I expect?
Depends on the route.
>How much is there to do in this game?
three routes, you have to do them in order.
>How big of a difference do my actions make?
two endings per route,aside from the first route.
40 bad ends.
>How long will it take to "beat?"
Fate took me about a day and a half,
UBW about 2~3 days, and HF another 4. I'm not a slow reader, but I'm not a blinding fast one either. I'd say about 50? hours for an average reader.
>When do I find out that Saber is King Arthur?
Rider fight, I'm pretty sure. When she first uses excalibur.

>What should I expect?
First of all, you should expect spoilers for as long as you're reading this thread. /jp/ used to be a decent place, but now it's filled with people who'll just spoil stuff just to be an ass.

Fate/stay night is a very, very long story (about twice as long as the entire LOTR trilogy), divided into three parts:
-Fate, which focuses on Saber and tells the story about Shirou participating in the Holy Grail War.
-Unlimited Blade Works, which focuses on Rin and has the HGW take some weird turns. It focuses a lot on Shirou's character.
-Heaven's Feel, which focuses on Sakura and has the HGW become more of a background element as you find out what the "Holy Grail War" is really about.
These routes must be followed in order; picking the options to go to a different route are either not possible or lead to a bad end.

It has a lot of slice-of-life, a lot of action, some drama, and a tiny bit of ero (7 relatively short scenes throughout the entire game).

>How big of a difference do my actions make?
Very little. It's basically 'make the right choice or die' throughout the entire game, with a few exceptions.

>How long will it take to "beat?"
Depends on your reading speed. For me it took 120 hours, but I'm a slow reader. For most people it seems to be roughly 60 hours.

>>11512575
Mollusks are from the author's previous VN, Tsukihime.

>>11512642
Heroic Spirits are explained early in Fate route. Basically, they're people who became heroes but in exchange have their soul help the universe for all eternity. The place where they exist is outside of any concept of 'time', so they can be sent to both the past and the future. In the case of the Holy Grail War, the souls of various famous heroes are summoned into a Servant body.

Important elements for watching Fate/Zero are Shirou's backstory (about Kiritsugu post-Zero and his personality in general), and pretty much all of Heaven's Feel.

>>11512791
'A Fate project by ufotable' is what was announced. There are rumors of it being HF, but I don't think we've had confirmation about what it is yet. (Please correct me if I'm wrong.)

Why did you have to start with FSN of all things? It'll just spoil your tastes. Then again, few good VN are translated.
