Lil' thought experiement of mine:
On YouTube there's a whole bunch of these "Chris Chan: All endings" videos. Where, as the title says, several more or less possible endings of Chris' life/story are shown, in a similar manner to the endings of a Visual Novel. This made me wonder about something: All Visual Novels (or VNs, for short) have a Common Route that the player MUST complete before they reach a certain point in the story where several Different Routes (each leading to a different ending) branch off. Which one exactly depends on the Player's choices they made during the Common Route. So here's the question: if Chris' life was the sotry of a VN, then what perticular moment was the point where the routes branched off?
