Note :

At the beginning of the game, you will have a Premium choice which decides the type of equipment your character will have throughout the whole series. For my first run I will use the Premium route and since the Story is still being released, I don’t know yet how much it will affect the game and the options the characters will have. Once the series is completely released, I will play the Normal route and add any differences.

If you decide to go the Normal route and it is really different, please let me know and I will try do to both route at the same time as I know not everyone uses the Premium option! 🙂
