How good is The New Frontier's Background Generator?
I'm switching from the PC version of the game to the Collection. Unfortunately, it doesn't allow Cloud Save transfers! The tragedy! 
So my question is this: Is the Background Generator for The New Frontier very effective? Does it cover all the bases and satisfy as a replacement for a direct save transfer? Or does it fall short and I'm better off replaying the original seasons?
Let me know what you think, and I'll figure out where to go from there. Thanks!

It's pretty elaborate - you can read about it at one of their older News posts: https://telltale.com/news/2016/12/telltale-s-a-new-frontier-story-generator/
(TL;DR: It gives you a questionnaire and generates around 42 clusters/permutations of different player personalities, using super high end statistics, data analysis, and such of what kinds of choices/dialogue options each of the 42 clusters of players would choose.)
...However, aside from a few particular choices that result in quick references, the majority of the previous Season choices for Clementine don't affect too much of the story in New Frontier since it mainly focuses on Javier.
Thank you very much for this! That puts my mind at rest significantly. I guess I'll just start a new save, since this is the case. Much appreciated!
Yes, don’t worry much about that. As for me, I wouldn’t have passed ANF at all. The only ep. that you will actully need is the last one. I mean it continues Clem’s story, while 4 previous deal with Javier. If you’re interested in Javi’s story, you’re welcome.
