There is very little character development for Saber in UBW or HF, whereas her development alongside Shirou is the main focus of Fate. The end result may be the same, in that her wish isn't granted in any of the three routes, but the only route in which she actually comes to terms with reality and accepts her fate and the fate of her kingdom, as it were, is in the Fate route. The same sort of thing "sort of" happens at the end of UBW, but it's really shoehorned in and feels almost like an afterthought, and I can't help but feel like it was just thrown in to take some of the tragedy out of Saber's disappearance rather than as an actual attempt at displaying character development.

What? A character can still receive development even if she is not the "focus".
