I've never played SOS before but with the release of SOS2 I decided to give it a try so I could really understand the story and not go in blind. I know there are a lot of LIs and the possibility of tragic endings for them. So between courage and caution, which path and LI did you find most interesting? I'm going to follow the walktrough but I don't want to spoil myself so much

I know that some of the older stories don't forgive of certain decisions, and I don't want to restart the whole story if I get the most horrible ending possible
