I honestly don't remember, exactly. I think either a friend told me about it or I just saw it around and got intrigued. Then I got my hands on the visual novel and decided to try it out. Never even got through the first route before my laptop at the time was fried. Then it took a few years to get back and it was when another friend of mine - who I had been talking about Fate with, about how we both should check it out better - told me about FGO soon after it had first come out. I played it for a while until my phone at the time got fried. Took about a year until I got a new one that I could use to play FGO and I've been nearly addicted since. Now that I've been playing FGO more, I've been getting into mangas of Fate/strange fake and Fate/Apocrypha and such as well as restarted the original visual novel as well. I got to the same point I had gotten to before and then... My laptop at the time was fried... All the files got saved this time around at least, but I still haven't gotten around to getting them onto my new laptop, because that's a job for at least maybe two full days to go through all of them and see what I want to keep and what not.

TL;DR: I don't remember what first got me into Fate, but I've mainly been branching from FGO to other series in the franchise and I sadly still haven't completed the original visual novel.
