💡 Key guide points

📋 Unlimited Saga Walkthrough: Choosing a Protagonist and Progressing

Choose 1 of 7 protagonists and play through that character's scenario. For learning the systems, accessible options are Judy, whose main scenario is relatively easy and whose companions are strong, or Ventus, whose delivery work makes rebuilding character development easier. Laura's branches vary in difficulty, while Ruby is more enjoyable with knowledge of other scenarios, so leaving them for later is safer.
