Okay, so I haven’t seen a detailed guide for Hayasaka’s route yet, and with the update that dropped on July 12, 2024, I figured I’d take a shot at penning one myself. Using the choices I’ll be sharing here, I was able to get the following achievements exclusive to her route:
-Sake It to Me!
-Don’t judge a book by its cover
-Prolific, Passionate Prose
Also as a rule of thumb for reading my guide:
No asterisk = pretty sure this choice DOES NOT affect Hayasaka’s route
1 asterisks = pretty sure this choice DOES affect Hayasaka’s route
2 asterisks = new choice present as of the 7/12/2024 update, not entirely sure what it affects either way
In all honesty, there’s probably more than one way to follow Hayasaka’s route, and the game is short enough that it’s not that hard go through a route from start to finish in a relatively short amount of time, especially if you use the CTRL key to skip dialogue you’ve read at least once before. And with all the possible save slots, it’s heavily encouraged that you create save states at different choices just in case a choice you make has a consequence you weren’t aiming for. That’s why this guide is aimed more at people who have at least been through one of the other routes and/or unsuccessfully attempted Hayasaka’s route at least once, so I don’t recommend proceeding any further until you’ve given this route at least one genuine shot yourselves.
