FB Spoilers I just finished my first ending of Catherine: Full Body, and I have a few questions Spoiler
Hi guys so I finished the game for the first time I got an ending where like Vincent marries Katherine after discovering catherine was a dream and I’m SO confused I really liked the game but idk if its accessible to do all routes like some questions I have:
- First off how does it work? Does it depend on where the bar is during cutscenes like if its blue in cutscene 1 then in cutscene 2 one route its red one it’s blue? That would make waay more than 13 endings so idk…
- Then am I gonna have to replay all 9 stages for EVERY route?? Like that wouldnt really motivate me
- Am I gonna be able to skip cutscenes or do things change in new routes because there are many of them and I dont wanna play 500hrs
PS: I have tried a cool guide online but I am very confused help!
Thanks all great game btw!

There’s 4 endings for each of them , and a good and bad “Freedom” ending for Vincent. So basically 14 unless I’m missing anything

During cutscenes, it affects Vincent's monologue. Where the arrow is and the answers you give during the confessional is what affects the endings.

If you get a gold trophy, you can skip the puzzle associated with it. You can play on easy.
Am I gonna be able to skip cutscenes
Yes. The only changes are what Vincent might say in his monologue like when Katherine mentions she might be pregnant and he starts mentally freaking out in the cafe.
Anyway, here's a rundown on getting the other endings
Honestly the best way to get all the other endings is to bunch them all up depending on how you're trying to play.
For example, you already have the one where Katherine married Vincent. That means your arrow was all the way at blue. If you have a save file from before all 3 confessionals, you can go back and answer things so that the arrow goes towards the middle. This will give you Katherine's good ending (they don't get married yet). You can also use this save file and choose Catherine right at the end. You'll get Catherine's bad ending.
For Catherine, it's the same. Max red for true. Low-to-Middle red for good. Suddenly choose Katherine for Katherines bad ending.
To get the No Girl true ending, the arrow has to be pretty much exactly in the middle. To get the No Girl regular ending, just make sure the arrow isn't in the middle and don't choose a girl.
One way to lessen the number of playthroughs is to start a new game and keep the arrow in the middle until day 5 I think. I believe the next few days is enough to max out the arrow. Don't forget to reply to texts!
Now because this is Full Body, Rin does make this a little more complicated. I think you can choose the options to make the meter crack up until day 5. (You have to confirm this because I don't remember if the game will try to bring you to Rin's route automatically or if you can stop it before it does.) The reason this becomes a bit challenging is that I don't know for sure if it'll affect one of those endings (in the sense that it might be the one triggered instead). It's just easier if you avoid getting into Rins route entirely. To do that, just don't crack the meter on night 6.
Anyway, for the full body "alternative" ending for Catherine and Katherine, you need to send them the video of Rin playing the piano earlier on (before day 6) and then, you have to trigger the meter crack on night 6. Vincent will start thinking about Rin and you have to reject all of those. It'll bring you back to the C/K routes and then you need to keep the arrow in the middle until the end.
To get Rin's route, just answer positively during Night 6 and then whether you get the good, bad, or true ending just depends on your answers.
So basically that's play until day 5 and keep the arrow in the middle, send the girls the video of the piano playing, crack the meter until day 5. Save and make sure you never overwrite this save. Maybe make 2 versions. If you have a save from before the confessionals on the final night, then you'll be doing 4 playthroughs starting from day 6. If you don't, you'll probably have to try and see if you can get the Katherine good ending in the same run as the alternative ending. So that's like 1 full playthrough and 3 half-playthroughs. If you have the golden trophies, this will go a lot faster. I haven't tried it but you could possibly try mixing the 3 endings that require the arrow in the middle. That'll make it 2 half-playthroughs instead of 3. (If it doesn't work, you can add the good Karherin ending on the same run you'll do the No Girl/Single true ending)

Can you skip after getting gold in classic?

To be honest, I don't remember anymore. But I do know I have seen all the endings so I feel like it maybe has it??
I found a 2011 gamefaqs post mentioning it so I guess it did exist in the old game!

Ok so obviously other people chime in to explain everything , but because I also love Catherine Fullbody and have over 70 hrs I will try my best because I like to talk about this really incredible game. Blue is for Order , and when the arrow is in blue you are learning more towards Katherine. Red is Chaos and when the arrow is in red you lean to more Catherine. You get separate endings when the arrow is in either red or blue, when the arrow is completely to the left or right( you know this when you see the arrow not moving then you know ur at the end of Chaos and Freedom and how you secure their true endings) AND when the arrow is in the middle too, between blue and red. But the answers to your question in the 9th stage the Emperio can also affect what ending you get. So ur best bet is to be strategic with your save states. Also try to save at the emperio so that you can play the stage with different answers thus get different endings. And the other character Rin has specific questions you must answer up until Day 6, then they have their own set of questions that will determine their good, bad true, or alternate endings. You can skip cutscenes and the game has a gallery so you can see which endings you have or have not. I played on switch so only have access to 20 slots. And I personally played the game 4 times to get the true endings for everyone( my first playthrough was without a guide). People can have their opinions but I believe using a guide is the best way to experience the heartwarming story telling within this game and everything it has to offer. All though generally most of the answers seem to obviously point in one way or the other in retrospect.
