/v/ - Video Games

>>15153586

>Inb4 "w-we only talk about VN here!"

No one has every claimed that, we talk about the VN, Extella, Extra, GO, and various LNs as well, hence, it is not a Fate/Stay Night thread, but a Nasuverse thread. It turns out though that the only thing continually getting content is FGO, though I am interested if the general plot of Extella Link has been translated or if I should just wait for a western release.

Extella Link turned out to be pretty short. Most of the side stories seem like jokes and stuff, too. Karl is fucking overpowered as shit, though.

>>15153578

>Where you right about the new Archer?

People have been going nuts over Napoleon. Also, this is more like his young lieutenant form, whereas as a Rider he's more of his EMPRAH!, though both apparently have Imperial Privilege(just not in game as a skill, here). Also, Rider form is shorter. He's essentially a stronger Nobunaga, which is kinda funny.

>What do you think götterdämmerung has in store for us?

Hoping to get some Chad Sigurd to juxtapose with virgin Sumanai. Also, that little shit Sieg better not show up. Brynhildr would be nice.

>Will there be more furry servants?

Kemono is pretty niche in Japan, and quite a bit less cancerous. I doubt it.

>Who is best Saberface?

Saber.

>Are you planning to roll for Napoleon?

Nah.

>>15153600

Ignore him.

>>15153590

FUCKING END IT ALL

Why is Napoleon not a manlet?

>>15153590

Congratulations. You've ruined the thread.

>>15153659

Because Napoleon wasn't a manlet, it was a translation error converting the French foot to the English foot.

>>15153671

He was 5'6". He was still a manlet.

>>15153689

Do you know what the average size of a Frenchmen was in Napoleon's day and age? It was 5'4", and he was actually 5'7" not 5'6", if he were born today and were 3 above average he would be 6'. The author's made him 6'2" so I guess you're right and they cheated giving him 2 inches.

If it makes you feel better they did it for the same reason Iskandar is tall, because they can.

>>15153729

>you know what the average size of a Frenchmen was in Napoleon's day and age? It was 5'4"

Do we know if that's another translation error or not?

>>15153772

I converted it from cm from this source. http://www.napoleon-series.org/research/abstract/population/vital/c_heights1.html

Which is just a table taken from the information in this source.

http://www.press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/H/bo3638508.html

Done with historical records after the fact when most of the sources of the shorter figure for Napoleon come from propaganda campaigns and newspapers during his life.

Another factor is that Napoleon had very tall guard himself, the kind of guys that make everyone look puny. So in comparison, he seemed shorter than his guards even though they were incredibly tall themselves.

What are the chances Magni will show up in the lostbelt as a loli?

>>15153865

Didn't we already see his arm in Prillya and he's bigger than Ivan?

does this have oppai loli in it?

>>15153953

Nah, most you get is shortstacks like Nero Claudius.

>>15153997

>4ft 11

>B83/W56/H82

>>15153997

She's a Roman woman with the height of a teenager yet somehow has the bust and waistline of a full fledged adult.

The only girls shorter than her are literally children and ancient demons that somehow have the bodies of children.

Unless we're talking about fantasy races I think this is as realistic as you can get to a shortstack.

>>15153978

>>15154008

I would still say that doesn't make her a short stack, Nero isn't approaching Goblin tier shit. Maybe the midget Hassan is more up your alley.

>>15154031

>always thought she was tall

>hopes and dreams, shattered

>>15154036

well her body type isnt that of a shortstack

>>15154068

Foreigner/Assassin, because I want to adopt Abby and Jack.

>>15154068

Berserker

>>15154068

Berserkers. No doubt cutest mentally.

>>15154392

I have him at NP5 because when I first started the game I really wanted Saber Alter so I rolled on the Story banner a lot. Learned my lesson. Got the final copy of him trying for Gilgamesh on the Zero prerelease banner, also got Lancelot from that.

>>15154392

At least her banner isn't dog shit. Quetz is a great 5* rider, Gorgon is a great 4* Avenger, I just want her though.

>>15153907

So you are saying she could be a muscular fluffy monster girl loli with a strong fapping arm and poor hygiene?

>>15154535

Not to be too gay, but you fucking know Leonidas has an absolutely huge cock.

>>15153600

>we talk about the VN, Extella, Extra, GO, and various LNs as well, hence, it is not a Fate/Stay Night thread, but a Nasuverse thread

bitch this ain't remotely true. Every skim I see it's you fags wanking over jpg waifu rolls and fuck-all else aside of getting into these kinds of arguments. At least be honest about the bullshit you contain in these shitbin threads.

ps granblue sucks donkey ass just as much.

As cool as Napoleon is he has "Bait" written all over him.

>>15157308

I've seen people whale for him. Which is extremely dumb considering Summer is very close.

>>15157442

All i know is that they apparently gave her pants

and there were NA faggots unironically saying that they preferred her that way.

>>15157807

The outfit is unironically terrible. The Chinese have SQ for compensation, which I'd personally take. Then again, I'll never use Boudica anyways. Of course that opens the problem that once you censor one outfit, soon you get all of them censored. So fuck that.

>>15158136

Chinese moral standards, again the same thing happened to Boudica where they turned her panties into a shorts in >>15157442 Allegedly the law is badly worded so publishers get a bit trigger happy with censorship in China because if the government does take action it takes forever to get resolved.

>>15157442

AFAIK Jack is normal, which is hilarious.

>>15159137

>shortstack

>second girl isn't stacked

You're a deceiver

>>15159712

Asuka is extremely smol, and Smolder has reasonable boobs for her size, but she's extremely thicc considering how short she is. Unless we get into those weird images or Yordles and Goblins with weird midget bodies, these are about as far as you can go in either direction without it becoming freakish.

>>15159668

It really depends how she stands, you can see that in at least one of those images that she appears to be at least a B Cup, but they look smaller when she's posed differently like in the top left.

>>15159933

>extremely smol

It sure doesn't show

>and Smolder has reasonable boobs for her size, but she's extremely thicc considering how short she is

Sounds fair enough

>>15157832

tbh that jack is a lot better than the thot version we get

>>15160393

Asuka's 5' 1", so she's definitely short enough to qualify with those titties.

>>15160619

Doubt it.

>>15160619

There was a weekish gap between anniversary and Summer on JP

>>15160992

He wasn't talking about your rolls fag

>>15160874

I finally got the Gilgamesh CE after wasting a shit ton of stuff and not getting anything whatsoever. Rolling for specific CEs feels even more painful.

>>15160086

>>15160687

That's why I want to know if the China version is real. It would be a nice way to get the fags who balk at normal Jack to shut the fuck up and it should really be an alternative costume you unlock if it looks like that, but evidently it isn't so. I'm fine with Jack as she is, but, it's almost like too much exposure to her thighs is a bit samey, then I see skin tight pants and it make my penis the big penis.

>>15162648

Faggot.

Summer Tamamo will be the death of me.

>>15153590

It would at least get me to give a shit. Well, that or a Berserker Servant based on John Henry.

>>15167016

It's more like next week.

>>15167053

Didn't we get the Anniversary animation updates (Waver, Vlad and Jeanne) at launch?

The only thing that's killing me is the wait for the Summer event but I guess farming for chains will ease the pain a bit.

>>15167053

The -20 quartz was bullshit but there was a week between the anniversary banner and summer on JP too. It's best to get the Camelot 2 banner out of the way here.

>>15167066

We have gotten that and for Altera as I recall.

JP and maybe NA will get 3 SQ for Google Play shitting itself.

>>15167774

The notice said they'll speak about compensation later.

I do hope it's also 3SQ as JP got that amount.

>>15168167

My favorite speculation about this is that we're gonna end up helping Surtur blow the Lostbelt up.

A while back some anon posted about finding someone with a 5* in every support slot and the name Ready For Tama. Think I managed to add the guy.

If I don't get Yome Seibah in the anniversary gacha on JP I'm going to kill myself.

>>15171318

which one is that?

>>15171602

I can't believe they actually released Sigurd, risking the wrath of the waifufags who fell for Byrn's cheap waifub8.

>>15171631

The spiky armor and ice weapons he has for some reason give me WoW vibes back with the lich king. However, I will say that the glasses are a nice touch; They remembered Brynhildr's valentine choco CE "Frozen Glasses"

>>15171631

>biggest slut in the game

>even bigger than Tamamo

>her NP special effect "Those who love" affects only men (aside from Ushiwakamaru for some reason)

>it affects like a quarter of the male servants in the game

>even the fucking old man samurai

>even fucking skeleton fire angel of death

<Yes, this is the woman I'd like to be my waifu

Anyone that waifud Byrn is a cuck that deserves whatever they fucking get. They can sit there licking Byrn's ass while Sigurd fucks them like the little soyboys they are for all I care.

>>15171938

you seem like the kind of guy who thinks its unusual when peoples waifus are in canonical relationships

>>15171602

https://youtu.be/UD55fvE0LNQ

https://youtu.be/_dlwqKQQoRY

>>15171602

Holy shit, that Gram just looks fucking awful. Why couldn't they just use the design from F/SN that looks like a normal fucking sword?

>>15172127

Siegfried is the one in the opera, Anon. Sigurd is the original legend. Siegfried gets Balmung and is a Germanic Heroic Spirit, while Sigurd gets Gram and is a Norse Heroic Spirit. That's been said since as early as F/SN almost.

Except back then Gram didn't look retarded.

>got DaVinci-chan off a random ticket

>lost all luck to get Lancer Tamomo

>>15171602

So when will NA get the animation updates?

>>15172405

About 2 years after Japan does.

>>15172473

You summon all of them, with three different ones taking the lead role in battle which changes depending on the Ascension stage you set them in.

>>15171602

Are the Valkyries drawn by SaberMan?

Another servant i'll fail to roll

>>15172583

>ll of the servants are virgins unless otherwise stated, such as Medb and Solomon's wife.

[citation needed]

>>15172539

I'm glad, i really like his style.

>>15172597

Sounds like a good use of your command spells.

>>15172597

Regrowing your waifu's hymen doesn't mean you've undone her sleeping with other men. In fact, Nasu had to take such a big shit on his perfected waifu summoning system that he had to make extra servants to fix this, with Tamamo and Nero still lusting after Hakuno's dick and not to mention Miss DRAGON DICK. All because he wanted to reference Fate/Extra and Apocrypha.

>>15172625

Nero's canonical appearance is as drawn by Arco, so she's fairly distinct from Seiba as drawn by Takeuchi. When Arco does both of them, like in Extella, you can tell them apart easily.

Okita is literally a pallet swapped Seiba made as a joke.

>>15172625

Call me crazy, but I think Saberface should only extend only to variations on King Arthur, not the girls who seem to have the same 'face' as OG Arthur.

>>15172617

It wasn't sarcasm.

maybe just a little

>>15172539

Takeuchi digs Valkyries. Iirc he wrote a manga about them or something.

>>15172667

Well in any case, my point still stands. All of the saber faces EXCEPT Okita and Nero are virgins. And Jannu (thanks Apoc writers)

>>15172685

Reminder that in Fate route Shirou dicks Saber, so if you ever summon her after the fact she has either ascended to the throne with a torn hymen or she is mid suffering on the edge of death.

>>15172695

It doesn't matter what happens in any of the fate routes because we don't know which one is canon. In 2 out of the 3 routes, Saber remains a virgin, so the chances are pretty high.

>>15172733

If she remains a virgin, she was never saved by Shirou, she stills thinks she's a gigantic fuck up at the end of Fate/Zero and she's mid suffering trying to undo her very existence. If she is saved by Shirou, she has been dicked, and has lost her hymen. So either you are dealing with happy used goods or a mid-suffering virgin.

>>15172733

Garden of Avalon makes the Fate route ending the canon one because Saber being saved is the reason that Merlin let's Fou escape from the tower in order for him to show up in Grand Order.

>>15172753

Well if that's the case then I'm alright with the OG saber being spoken for, Shirou is a good character and they deserve eachother.

>>15172733

The way the universe works is that they are all canon, like in SMT.

Apparently Scathach Skadi might be the Quick Support Servant people wanted all along.

I can see her being in the second banner like Ivan was.

>>15174067

Maybe. Quick can't have nice things so it is too early to say yet.

>>15174067

Is there any sort of connection between Scathach and Skadi? Because it seems really lazy for them to bust out an Aokoface like this. Some of the blogs only say that they're only slightly related?

>>15174107

Ivan was also not a mammoth either, remember that we are exploring alternate timelines, so although this version of Scathach is related to Skadi, that doesn't mean she is in wider lore, and it also means there's probably a deeper explanation.

>>15177183

If Cu can be a Caster Shishou who taught him should be too, in addition the design makes as much sense as mammoth Ivan.

>>15153729

I'd like to give Napoleon 2 inches if you know what I mean

>>15178218

We're going through alternate reality, but nearly every Servant that's been made available for summoning so far has been part of the Greater History of Man. The only AUs that we've had so far:

>Bedivere: The one from Camelot, which is an alternate reality summoning.

>King Arthur (Male): From an alternate reality, but not necessarily a Lost Belt.

>Musashi: She's a dimension traveler from a Lost Belt.

>Ivan: He was a Lost Belt King.

That's it. If anything, when you take into account BB, the two Sakura Five, Redman, Detroit Man, Kerry, Iri, Illya, Kuro, Fujino, Shiki, and Void, plus the assorted band of pseudo-Servants, you have more Type-Moon OC donut steels than anything else.

Is it obnoxious how many good Servants aren't being used? Yes. Is it obnoxious that the greatest civilization in the ancient world was reduced to a pitiable state by Nerowank? Yes. But the Lost Belt story-line hasn't been the cause of those problems.

>>15178302

My pronouns are Fate/Fay

>>15178218

>Artoria's excuse for why she's recorded as a man

<I crossdressed my entire kingship

>Nero's excuse for being recorded as a man

<I crossdressed all the time as emperor

One of these things was justified that other wasn't guys, remember that.

>>15178501

Who else jumped timelines constantly to shit things up? Sefar? Altera? I suppose one could count the Umbral star as the big bad, but the way it worked seemed more like a force of nature rather than anything strictly evil.

>>15178517

>>15178501

I fucked up, he was Archimedes not Aristotle.

>>15178536

I didn't notice, well I guess that isn't good enough.

>>15178490

One had a somewhat original somewhat meta justification of being genderbent to keep the reveal of their identity as more of a surprise. The "Oh wow, they genderbent this character!" twist is only surprising or unexpected the first time. Especially when the reveal that they're actually a genderbent character is coupled with them looking almost identical to the other genderbent character, and therefore immediately brings genderbending to mind. Now, genderbending isn't even a twist anymore, it's just something that happens often for no reason.

When does the Summer Event start?

>>15179791

Early August.

>>15178490

>>15178570

>>15179774

>crossdressing Nero

There's a story about the real Nero dressing as a bride and having a marriage ceremony with a freed male slave. Could just be another case of anti-Nero propaganda like the fiddle thing. Or I might have mixed him up with Caligula again

>>15153578

Trash game. Trash servants.

I can't belive there are poepel on /v/ who seriously play this trash…then again, given how many people on /v/ play trash games in general, I shouldn't be surprised.

Artoria kind of made sense.

>Uther needed an heir, yet still cast aside Artoria?

>Arthur had no heirs(Welsh myths aside), despite being married for years, thus Mordred was such an issue

But they're still post hoc explanations. Saber is wonderful but it's still an annoying practice by them, especially since they keep ignoring actual historical and mythological women in favor of just genderbending someone.

>>15180062

I think the idea that random Japanese people mentioned vaguely in some stories get more attention than more famous heroes in other countries is the bigger issue. I mean, I like Ushi and all but did anyone outside of Japan even know who he is?

Meanwhile we got Thomas fucking Edison, a household name all over the world, and he can't even manifest as a proper servant. Hell, even Zhu Ge Liang has to rely on Waver to get a manifestation, despite being super famous in Asia.

>>15179891

Oh that guy, I vaguely remember him. No, I'm talking about Nero marrying a guy called Pythagoras (no, not that one):

>…he stooped to marry himself to one of that filthy herd, by name Pythagoras, with all the forms of regular wedlock. The bridal veil was put over the emperor; …

Though my only source is wiki, so take that as you will.

>>15180315

Isn't Ushi Minamoto no Yoshitsune? He is pretty popular in Japanese media.

>>15180390

Yeah, but how many people actually know of him outside of Japan? And especially compared to those two examples that I brought up, who didn't manage to make the servant cut, but he does?

>>15180411

Well, it's not like it's just limited to the Japanese servants, how many people knew Blavatsky or Eric Bloodaxe? And they still became full servants. Yoshitsune at least fits the bill as a legendary hero. You might have a better point if you said the Shinsengumi guys. Hijikata and Okita are basically just cops Japs need to study about in school.

>>15180441

Hijikata and Okita are well known in Japanese pop culture. They're way more obvious as picks than say Fuuma Kotarou or Sasaki Kojirou.

But someone could easily disagree with that too.

Japan puts their historical figures in fiction all the time, it's pretty pointless to argue which one was popular enough in life to deserve being a servant considering they're apparently all popular enough to be put into video games and anime all the time.

>>15180441

>Eric Bloodaxe

You mean you don't know of THE Eric Bloodaxe, THE Bloodaxe King, who wields THE Bloody Axe?

The Japs don't really both me that much for the simple reason that it's a game made by Japs, and I somewhat expect to see them over-wank their own heroes. In-universe it's justified in two manners: One, the Age of Mysteries lasted much longer in Japan due to isolation and general xenophobia, so there's a disproportionate number of Heroic Spirit candidates relative to population; Two, the only real catalyst Chaldea has is (You), and (You) are assumed to be a little Jap kid that stumbled in one day, so it makes sense you'd be summoning your own people. What makes a little less sense is why Gilgamesh summons so many Japs in Babylonia, but considering that fucking Leonidas and loli Medusa overshadow most of them, that's not a massive point in their favor.

>>15180315

Zhuge isn't reliant on Waver, it's just that he doesn't want to manifest, because he'd rather not get involved. Waver would rather sit in his room playing shitty video games all day, but he's forced to teach students instead. So now he's forced to be a Servant. For Zhuge, it's some more akin to Schez, except he's not a retard so he found a better way to game the system, and his reasoning isn't nearly as stupid.

>>15179791

On the 26th, don't listen to the cuckchan doomposter who said early August.

>>15180590

>For Zhuge, it's some more akin to Schez, except he's not a retard so he found a better way to game the system

I thought Zhuge couldn't manifest without using Waver as a vessel.

Though it would be hilarious if he just simply couldn't be fucked and used Waver as a scapegoat instead.

>>15180590

>>15180789

You're both right and wrong. Zhuge Liang can not manifest as a servant by himself in and of himself. He does require Waver (or someone else compatible) to manifest. However, when he possesed Waver he basically said "I can't be arsed into doing this, you do everything, I leave my power to you" and doesn't show up personally, which is why Waver is the only 100% unaffected pseudo-servant personality wise. Compare to Jaguar Man that doesn't act like normal Taiga, or Ishtar.

>>15180923

Wait, I thought you had to be willingly summoned as a servant. How is it that he's manifested in somebody else but can't be fucked to do anything. If he didn't want to be summoned at all wouldn't he just be able to tell the throne or Chaldea "Nope, not today" And just not manifest at all?

>>15180781

I hope its the 26th, but I highly doubt they will start the campaign before they do the IRL event, and the IRL event starts on the 28th.

>>15181055

IRL event? Do you mean the anime con?

>>15181079

I may have incorrectly automatically assumed he was talking about the JP anniversary event, but this is the IRL event I'm talking about.

https://gamewith.jp/fgo/article/show/109840

If he was talking about NA, I have no idea.

>>15180940

I'm uncertain if that applies to Chaldea summoning as it's a fundamentally different ritual, but even if that were the cade he was fine being summoned but too lazy to do anything himself when he got there. It should also be stated that Waver did talk to Zhuge Liang when he was first possesed, and Xhuge Liang recognized him as someone who could use his powers well. In addition, Zhuge is still inside Waver, he's just dormant. which if we ever go to Ancient China I do want to see Zhuge go full possesion on Waver's ass just so we can ginally see what he's like.

>>15181462

>all these spelling mistakes

I am too fucking tired.

>>15181466

Don't worry, we appreciate your autism.

I was able to get mama in one 10 roll which i was saving all last year for her so right now i got about 750 quartz and 35 tickets which im saving all for Ishtar and Merlin. I got a pretty good chance of getting them since they are at the end of the year and i wont be spending any tickets or quartz till then

Summer Event's on the 26th.

I hope Tamamo comes home. I'll buy into the catalyst meme and prepare the CCC Bikini Tamamo figure I got.

>>15179792

Get fucking fucked

>>15188129

im sorry that you dont have the self control to save

>>15188129

If it makes you feel any better, SaverCucks often don't get the waifu theyre saving for

>>15188795

I think im gonna have to reevaluate my opinion of you, Mordred fag. Why the fuck do you want an even delayed more than it already has? Need I remind you we've had a month of 0 content? You're actually saying you wanted more dead air? Fuck you man.

>>15188806

Having more time to get quartz for rolling is valuable. You guys all bitch that the other servers get more delays but that's artificially inflated by the fact the event quartz get hit rapid fire and once they catch up they'll slowly fall behind because there simply aren't the same number of cumulative log ins/consequtive log ins/master missions. Time = quartz, the more time you have the more quartz you have. That's why NA has the hishest total quartz even though we're slower.

>>15189102

*get less delays

Anyone got that caption of Agravain saying he hates women?

>>15189140

Thanks, let's see if the drawthread takes my request.

>>15189134

No one said it was a major difference, just there are benefits to going slower. Again. Time = quartz

In a game where 456 Saint quartz gets you to a 50% chance of getting your 5* waifu each one counts.

>>15189477

They could have sped things up and compensate the sped-up event schedule with quartz, like anyone that's smart would do.

I wish I had that riyo gudako pic that said "I showed you my saint quartz answer my summon" right now.

>>15189496

None of the other servers do that why would NA in this hypothetical scenario?

>>15189507

Isn't that what they're doing in Korea and Taiwan?

>>15189518

If they are, it's not enough to match NA, or NA wouldn't have the highest total quartz like that server analysis showed. If it's not matching, that means NA is strictly superior in this regard.

>>15189496

>>15189518

The other servers give out far more golden apples but not quartz. They just hit events (and thus event quartz) faster. The quartz per a day is not high because they are getting more quartz, it's because they are getting far less days, more than the quartz they're missing.

Aren't the kikebook and twatter campaigns for 3 or 10 SQ a NA only thing?

>>15190629

Kikebook specifically yes, a majority of the other serverd (including JP) use twatter. I think chink land uses their own unique one though if I recall.

>>15190629

I've never seen a kikebook banner, but we did get 12 SQ on JP for retweeting the stupid news show thing they did right before Lostbelt 2 was added.

>>15189102

Oh yeah, God forbid a faggot be deprived the 2 SQ max per week he can get to add on to his collection so he has a tiny bit larger a chance to get his waifu. Nevermind the fact the NA server is constantly let out of SQ opportunities, but the way to fix it is definitely more dead weeks of zero content

I thought only Reddit could lick corporate boot this hard

>>15191837

>2 quartz

Not very good at math are you? Theres, 4 from login bonuses every seven days, 2 from Master missions, a ticket for login bonus and if you want to autistically count the cumulative bonus past 100 it's 2.8 a week. In total 8.8 quartz and a ticket every week.

>plays waifu shit

>upset that waifu fags want more quartz for rolling

There's plenty of reasons to hate a slow server

>US app stops being supported when JP app ends (unlikely)

>dead weeks of peaceful boring grinding

>waiting a long time to get to read in native language

But total Saint Quartz is not one of those things.

>Nevermind the fact the NA server is constantly let out of SQ

You didn't look at the server analysis that showed NA had the highest total quartz before Rashomon did you?

>>15191881

You forgot that techbically we will get more 5 tickets before some events. So, technically, each week gets you an additional 1.25 tickets roughly.

None of this includes bond farming either for even more quartz with more time.

>>15191919

Bond farming is debatable, other servers objectively get more golden apples to compensate for lack of AP due to high speed pace.

>>15191887

There's no excuse for how slow the NA server is. All they have to do is translate because the content is already done, but even THAT isn't done correctly. Our server getting 'technically' more SQ is also a non issue since the amount is quite negligble. The JP server would have more total by an order of magnitude if they had the da vinci shop at first like we did, but they did just fine cause they had the apologems and apology apples. Getting caught up the top priority. Who cares if the autists think the fast pace would be 'tiring', nobody is forcing them to play all the time and keep their AP from capping out. None of it would matter if the JP server died, and it eventually will die or hit a point where the devs stop caring and content slows down to a crawl. In either case there'd be no point in sticking around on the server that is slower by 2 years cause that promise of content is no longer there.

Even if we took up the pace that Korea has, we'd reach the point of being caught up quickly and won't have to worry about 'the grind' quite as much, nevermind the fact that there are near constant reruns of events, so you wont be missing out on much for long.

A while back I saw someone say to hold off on getting the shop ces this time, is there a reason for that? I'd assume it's because of the development quests if anything.

I hope we get solo rateups like with Saber Wars.

>>15192022

Do you ever get tired of sucking that fat corporate cock?

>>15192122

Both gacha's CEs work with both parts 1 and 2. You don't need to save FP for the 2nd part.

>>15192122

I dont know exactly how reruns work in this game but id assume they change things up at least a little bit. If that's not the case, I'd prefer it if the NA server skipped reruns altogether. It's just more of a reason for Albert to give us yet another empty month of zero content.

>Why? Because if the JP version ends the NA version will just stop because obviously businesses hate money?

Are you dense? The NA version will continue but player count would drop dramatically, even moreso once the updates stop on the NA server as well. There's no point in playing a mobage if there won't be any more content. We all know its coming but I guess we all assume that day will not be coming for years to come. There's simply not enough content in a mobage to sustain players without getting two or three major updates a month. Seems a bit strange to us NA server cucks but I must remind you that JP got a rerun event, interlude events, and a new singularity event in this month alone. Meanwhile we get jack shit until the 26th

>>15192231

And the point of this is?

>>15192184

>I dont know exactly how reruns work in this game but id assume they change things up at least a little bit.

>continues to bitch about how we have to get caught up with JP

>doesn't even understand how the reruns work

The reruns gave you much less time but lowered the shop costs to compensate. (and because you're too retarded to look this up, if the event has a grail, and you already got the grail for that event, you get a lore instead). There is no new content for the most part. Only exceptions is Saber Wars reruns give Saber Lily a NP upgrade if I remember, and Kuro gets her second skills upgraded barely at all by her rerun, besides that they are the exact same content. Korea has already been chopping down time, and dumping apples to compensate. There are two approaches

>reduce the costs in shop to ridiculously low levels

>throw even more fucking golden apples than they did the first time

They usually cut it down by a third of the days originally. (First Christmas event was 9 days rerun was 6, Halloween isn't a good comparison because JP had ungodly issues with the original.) The amount of bitching about grinding would only go up.

>There's no point in playing a mobage if there won't be any more content.

But there will be new content, in NA at least. If everyone in this fucking thread could speak Japanese we would all be playing JP right now, but you'll notice that the key point of the NA server is getting new content translated. Even if JP server ends, and even if NA branch hates money for some reason, there will still be content to translate to English, the main reason people play NA in the first place.

>Seems a bit strange to us NA server cucks but I must remind you that JP got a rerun event, interlude events, and a new singularity event in this month alone. Meanwhile we get jack shit until the 26th

>rerun counts as new content

HAHAHAHAHA

Compared the part of JP we're in, you know, because we're not rushing, let's check what they got July 2016

>Anniversary

Check

>Bond expansion Part VI

<inb4 he didn't know that JP released bond level 10 on a group of servant by servants basis

This means that effectively NA has gotten 6 "mini-events" more than JP in just this one area alone by having bond 10 from the beginning alone.

>Strengthening quest part IV

Check

>Camelot release

This started before July in NA but the banner in question lasted until the 11th, so check

>Ember gathering 1/2 off

We have Free quest 1/2 off

>Onigashima

We got this a few weeks earlier, so that was in June, but, we got Summer in July instead, which JP got in August.

All reruns are just pity gestures to those who missed the first time and are effectively the exact same in all but two cases.

>>15192257

It's a bot that some autist manually enters the captcha for in /v/ threads.

>>15192638

We got shafted on gimme quartz during the Zero event as well

>>15192638

This would all be much easier if the faggot who made the originals spreadsheet didn't hide it from public view.

Archer class Servants have damage reduction, only doing 0.95, but they have Independent Action that kind of offsets that with crit damage being higher.

Does anyone know what rank of IA a Servant needs to be doing more crit damage than say a 1.0 or a 1.1 type servant? Or are they still shafted in comparison?

>>15192951

Generally speaking, the .95 damage reduction is not that noticeable considering how good offensively many archers are. The .9 damage of casters and assassins on the other hand is huge simply because many of them don't have good offensive kits.

I dream of making a team consist of lolis. What do?

>>15192951

Basically this:

>>15193027

Archer is the class of Euryale, Robin, David, EMIYA, Gilgamesh, Swimsuit Artoria, Arash, and Kuro. There's not a lot of bad Archers. Maybe Arjuna, but he's still a 5*, so he's at least a statstick.

>>15193107

Wait for Prillya event.

>>15193537

Thanks, man. I'd been wondering whether IA balanced out the 0.95 thing since they have such high Crit weight.

http://fate-go.us/news/?category=NEWS&article=%2Fiframe%2F2018%2F0724_summer1%2F

Advance notice is up.

Also, unlike JP, we get rotations in the banner so if you're aiming for a specific 4* you're more than good.

Mordred and Kiyohimefags rejoice.

>>15199039

I should preface this by saying this assumes maximum jewry concerning how the "at least one 3* servant and up" and "at least one 4* CE or servant and up" is programmed into the 10 pull summoning. If DW were actually generous the math gets much better.

>>15199039

>>15199051

So unless RNGesus decides to fuck me over harder than Nerowank did Septem it's almost certain SuMor will at least come home. I also have 12 tickets, do they change the math any?

>>15199069

You go up to 96.02% I believe, and yes it's completely possible to get fucked over by RNGesus but it is unlikely.

>>15199086

>96%

Well shit, that's pretty damn good.

Just curious, what would the odds be of rolling Saber Mordred with 10 tickets and 150 quartz on her original solo rateup for the London release?

>>15199098

34.3% for at least one I believe.

>>15199112

Wow, so I got really lucky when I summoned Saber Mor. Hope that luck holds out now, thanks for the maths.

I hope 240 Quartz and 10 Tickets can bring Lancer Tamamo home.

Is there a way to play it on browser?

As a person who played Fate Stay Night and Fate Extra is it safe to say that the majority of the enjoyment that can be derived from this game can be substituted by masturbating to doujins of the new servants?

>>15200476

The fun used to be derived from being a history buff and getting your favorite historical character as a servant; however, the problem is the rampant genderbending and literally-who Nip favoritism has kept good and recognizable heroes throughout history from getting the spotlight, nevermind the stage.

>>15200476

It's probably much more enjoyable to jack off to doujins than it is to play this game, if you had to pick one or the other, but playing the game may or may not enhance the experience of the doujins.

>>15200519

Not to mention how historically inaccurate some of the servants are, in which case being interesting in the historical figure actually ends up making it even worse to see how they're portrayed in game.

>>15200519

>Historical characters being good servants

Nah buddy

It was always about mythological heroes who never actually existed or at the very least semi-historical figures who were lionized to a bullshit degree as a heroic spirit. I mean seriously Thomas Edison as a heroic spirit? Not Billy the Kid or Paul Bunyan but a fucking hack of a scientist who couldn't wrap his brainlet mind around using AC to deliver electricity over large distances?

>>15200540

That was my main concern will context of this mobage nonsense enhance my ability to jack off to servants, Medjed is pretty cute.

>>15200550

Billy the Kid is a servant in the same storyline that Edison is. Edison is actually a great example of a historically inaccurate servant, just take a look at his design if you haven't seen it already. He's a fucking furry. And not even something that would have made sense, like an elephant, or an eagle, he's a lion. Nikola Tesla is a servant too, Edison bitches about him a lot and is pretty obviously jealous because Tesla is significantly stronger.

>>15200550

>It was always about mythological heroes

I…shit, you're right. In that case, the first actual historical character introduced in the Fate series was Nero, wasn't it? As if that weren't bad enough, Nero was also genderbent and then made much stronger than (s)he had any right to be.

Also, fuck you, Thomas Edison is a cool servant. It's just a shame some of the leaders of men were grouped up with some of the worst leaders of men and mish-mashed into one heroic spirit. Andrew Jackson and George Washington could have easily served as separate heroic spirits.

>>15200587

In retrospect it's supposed to be that he took on forms of media that were popular with america, so his head is the MGM Lion, his outfit looks like a cross between Flash Gordon and Superman, his Noble Phantasm is the 20th Century Fox logo, etc etc etc. It's because when he was manifested he extended on the forms of media that his inventions sort of propagated to Televison with the patent of Motion Pictures. It's fucking reaching as shit but there you go. It's about as Reaching as Ushiwakamaru being a young puppylike girl bro-con as much as I like her.

>>15200613

You know despite Edison being an absolute brainlet that kind of reaching bullshit being the embodiment of pop culture that came from his inventions and being fueled by all of the preceding American presidents is the Nasuverse crap that made me fall in love with the man's work.

Although not having my boy George Washington is a terrible sacrifice.

>>15200476

If you like the characters in the doujinshi you're masturbating to, you might as well give the game a try. It will probably enhance your experience. It's free anyway. Assuming you're not absolutely strapped for time, and who on 8chan is, trying it out is fine. I've never seen a servant that I think GO ruined. I've seen servants get shafted on their chapter/story before Nero, but never anything that totally ruined the servant for me.

>>15200366

As someone who mains JP and only plays NA very casually, if you can't read Japanese very well, play NA. The best part of the game is the story (eg, bonding with your cute servants), and you can't do that very well if you can't understand them. Yeah, the NA server is about 2 years behind in terms of content, but I'd say it'd be worth it to be able to read the text. Probably.

>>15200919

But the explanation given for Cu Caster and Cu Lancer being the same person is that it's the same timeline of Cu, just Cu being also qualified for Caster (this was stated as far back in Stay Night, in addition to Cu qualifying for Berserker). So while Big Titty Artotira is literally from a different timeline that she didn't have Excalibur keeping her chest small, Cu Caster is the same person and same timeline as Cu Lancer. Ivan the Terrible is obviously Sonic OC because he's a giant furry from a different timeline, so I would count titty Artoria as also OC because she is from a different timeline than normal Artoria.

In addition, I would personally count Anastasia as she appears as OC, as the only reason Anastasia has the powers she has is a bullshit "she made a deal with viy viy before dying" which has nothing to do with the actual Anastasia. I

>>15191919

Do tickets give a bonus to summon rates? If not, then that 10 free tickets thing instead of the 20 sq was a fucking scam.

>>15202186

As far as I'm aware tickets do not give any bonus to summon rates. Anything you get off of a ticket is pure luck.

>>15202186

They do not. And it was not an either or. JP got both 10 tickets and 30 quartz total.

>>15202214

Wait, really? I thought that was our little consolation bonus. Fuck this game, and anyone spending money on it.

>>15202186

No, it's debatable even a 10 pull increases rates

>>15202410

It still guarantees one 4 star card, so that cuts out any chance of a 3 or below.

>>15202510

Depends on how you program it. If the check just outright removes the chance of a 3* Servant or CE, yes it's better. But you could also program it that if a 10 pull doesn't have anything 4* and up, change one of the 3* Ce or Servants into a 4* CE. Therefore not increasing ypur chance of getting a 4* or 5* servant.

>>15203089

Bedivere is cute.

I was hoping they genderbent him the first time I played Camelot because he's so cute.

Don't even try to tell me that isn't a cute girl pose on your Success screen.

>>15203089

I just hope they fixed Anne's fucked up proportions, or at least give us another Saint Graph that distracts as well as that lewd one in their normal form.

>>15203125

No, Bedivere amongst the manliest of men. No woman can muster the amount of LOYALTY Bedi had for his king.

Finally finished farming enough medals that I can max out Mo's Cerulean Ride skill, might as well get the rest of the homo babs I need for her now. Is the best spot to farm those somewhere in London?

>>15203089

Nice work. God knows Bedi deserves it.

>>15203172

>Failed to understand his king, only serves him blindly until they fail because he didn't stop them from fucking up

>Doesn't stop his king from making retarded decisions because that's loyalty to him

>Can't even beat Lancelot

>Completely BTFO by a roman umu autist, a smug redman and a mikon slut on the moon

Gawain a shit

>>15203267

>Right there. Like I said, as opposed to stopping the king - who was made King for a good reason - from doing whatever, even though the King is probably more suited for the job than anyone else

But Gawain didn't do that, King Arthur explicitly chose to forgive Lancelot and when Lancelot came to ask to help in Camlann Gawain explicitly forbade him. Deciding for himself that his decision was better than the king.

>>15203274

Kinda sounds like hearsay to me. I'm sure he was under orders from the King to do such.

>>15203267

>As opposed to serving conditionally, which everyone else did? And you saw how that worked out, they betrayed King Arthur anyway. Gawain was the perfect knight and served his king well

True loyalty is not just blindly being a yes man. Hell, he was even blatantly disloyal at the worst possible time. Artoria wanted to pardon Lancelot but Gwain went to go fight him instead and as a result neither was there for the battle of Camlann.

>>15203267

Gawain is a fucking retard that thinks blindly serving someone is better than helping them rule, except when it serves his personal notions of what a king should be. He'll just stop thinking when he realizes that the king is making bad decisions, but as soon as Lancelot asks for help, he tells him to fuck off.

Not only is he not the best of the KotRT, he's one of the most irritating fuck ups in the entire Fate series. He can eat shit and die.

>>15203296

Southwark, thanks.

>Hearts

Oh god, now I'm remembering the horrible grind for those I did before Saber Mor's release. I eventually just gave up and held on to some I'd been planning to use for Herc's skills. Worth it though.

>>15203309

This is exactly the lesson he learns at the end of Extra, after he made the EXACT same mistake with Leo as he did with Arthur.

>>15203334

I liked his side story in Extella. It's about him finally overcoming that flaw for good, and at the end he even gets Arturia's forgiveness after a sparring match with her.

>>15203346

The Extraverse as a whole has really strong character writing. Wish they'd make a more traditional action game or rpg with that huge cast.

>>15203358

So, CCC?

>>15203371

CCC still has the god awful battle system extra had right?

>>15203376

The only thing keeping me from doing an archer and caster run in Extra

>>15203328

The trick with hearts is the events. People can give shit to Go West, but the Bollywood node had amazing heart drops. Same shit for the Demon Room in KnK, and the Tower in Onigashima. I'm sitting on like 90 of the fucking things right now.

Meanwhile, I need like 300 Void Dust, and only have about 40 despite farming Charlotte non-stop for the last week at 1/2 AP. Gold mats are hell to farm, but events make them trivial to collect. Bronze mats, where one skill takes like 120? Fuck those.

>>15203395

The best time to get Void's Dusts was back when the training grounds only had knights and cavalry split. I remember sitting on a stockpile of 200~ of the things before the dailies changed.

>>15203382

>>15203371

I see what people don't like about the Extra battle system, but I don't really mind it. It's one of the closest representations of a "grail war" we may ever get, with all its attack planning, enemy research, and resource management. It's why Yakisoba Bread is on the Victor of the Moon CE, it was pretty much the only way to restore master mp.

Repetitive? Sometimes. But it's super satisfying to hit all of a bosses weak points, and fill the gaps with a Domus Aurea and some battle skills or code casts. Writing is just what ties it all together.

>>15203468

Bones aren't so bad, just run X-G in Fuyuki, you can get 2 or even 3 if you're lucky.

Before hitting the bump limit, any guides/tips for the upcoming event?

>>15203544

Roll the gacha a lot of times.

>>15203544

Don't roll the bait gacha.

>>15203544

Use event CEs

Use servants who give bonus drops

Get the Shop CE as quickly as possible

>>15203544

Spend all your event mats on QP trust me it's worth it

>>15203580

Actually, for this event in particular, for once the Shop CEs should

wait till the story missions are done. Supposedly, completing the story missions unlock the best farming nodes, so it's best to get those out of the way first.

Computer's being a piece of shit as usual, don't think I'll end up streaming anything after all. Instead I'll probably just record my summons with Bandicam and then throw it up on Cytube or something.

>>15208213

Hope Rider Mordred evades you. Unless, of course, your physique has improved significantly. Otherwise you're not even on her level.

>>15208213

Remember to wait until her solo up banner.

>>15208489

I'm not sure if this is supposed to be supportive or not but yes, I have. Still not as fit as I'd like but a lot better.

>>15208536

I will, I just hope it won't be an entire week out. I've had good results with a simulator, but rng could still fuck me over.

>>15208546

If you cannot princess carry her in full armor it is not enough.

>>15208548

>110 lbs

Soon, soon.

>>15208553

>110lbs is 50kg

>he thinks Modred weighs that much in full armour, despite an average woman weighing 40kg and an average set of armour weighing 15-20kg

>>15208553

Actually wait. Adding that to her own weight is about 202 lbs instead.

I'll get there. She's worth it.

>>15208563

See >>15208570

>>15208570

>>15208571

We know Mordred's weight, it's 42kg, if we go with a generous 20kg for the armor, 62kg=136.69 lb

>>15208579

I found that full plate armor could weigh up to 50kg (Though that might've been for jousting armor), so I went with a high ball. Being able to bride carry Mordred is the goal, but being able to do it easily would be better.

>>15208570

>>15208548

I'll just add that you can princess carry a person who weighs a lot more than you can bench, assuming they're not actively being a fuck about it. I've done twirls with people over 200lb in arms because they were smart enough to know where to put their damn arms. The average man should be able to carry someone of roughly his body-weight in that position.

It's difficult to know what Mordred's armor would weigh, since it's ridiculously fucking large and gaudy, not to mention completely out of place in the historical period it's supposed to be from (Monty Python and the Holy Grail may be a comedy, but the armor and clothing in it are an almost dead match for period accuracy). The amount of metal involved in that hunk could easily be well over 100lb, just eye-balling the bulk and comparing it to how much a slab of metal would weigh. Possibly a lot more - in any event, no serious fighter would ever wear it (though Mordred =/= smart so it's okay). While raw strength could be used to shrug it off in most cases, Mordred is reliant on Mana Burst in the same way her father is - and from how we've seen Saber behave, it seems unlikely that Mordred is just constantly blowing Mana Burst to keep her armor on. This leads to the point that it's faerie made and laden with magical enchantments, which combined with her movement, suggests that it's much lighter, if not effectively weightless. To approximate that, we can consider some sort of LARPer nerf gear, which suggests more like 15lb.

I got Summer yuri pirates and Summer Tamamo in 60 Quartz. I can die happy.

Everyone seems to be getting yuri pirates, I was gonna just throw 30 sq of the Archuria funds to get some CEs and I got yuri pirates and summer tamamo.

>>15209555

What was it supposed to be?

>>15209555

They also do a fucking doge reference on top of that for archuria. These fucking people…

At least I got SummerKiyo in 30 quartz, but got nothing in the next roll. I'll wait for SurMo's rate up.

So far, only one from 65 friends in my list pulled her

>>15211103

>also how the fuck do you turn iron from the ore itself into plates big enough to make a shelter in the middle of a jungle without the proper equipment?

Scathach explained at the beginning that her "runes" will take care of converting shit into useable materials. Evidently it's handy enough to turn raw ore into metal sheets/pipe.

>>15211103

>also how the fuck do you turn iron from the ore itself into plates big enough to make a shelter in the middle of a jungle without the proper equipment?

You think this is crazy? Wait for Part 2.

>>15211103

And here I'm trying to figure how they got their vegetables and crops to grow overnight? a few days? weeks? What the fuck is the time scale here?

>>15211162

At least you've got AoE and ST, my only other gold lancers are a Li and a OG Cu grailed to 80. Still no AoE lancer unless I level Hektor but I've hated that smug fucker since Okeanos. Then again:

>With Tama lancer, I now have 7 SSRs

>one in each main class

Now I, too, can pretend to be a whale on the Friends list

>try for swimsuit waifus 3 times

>no swimsuit waifus

Not what I was aiming for but I am still extremely satisfied, didn't expect a Jack that's for sure

>Excessive Medea and lancer drops

Fucking hell.

>>15211411

>And here I'm trying to figure how they got their vegetables and crops to grow overnight? a few days? weeks? What the fuck is the time scale here?

If there is an inconsistency that can not be explained, it is all Scathach and Scathach rune magic making anything possible as long as she has the "resource". Where they got wheat/rice/watermelon in the first place? Hell if I know.

>>15211423

As someone with two Anne's do to accidentally mashing the quartz summon button while dumping FP I got Fran out of it too so I am not at all angry you are factually incorrect unless you mean from gameplay standpoint. Fuck their anatomy.

>>15211423

I feel you, man. There are very few servants in the game that are worse than Mordred. Unless you like boring manchildren that can't go 10 seconds without talking about their daddy.

>>15212586

>only 200k FP

You need millions to have a real shot of getting him.

>>15212591

Pretty sure I've thrown more than 1m FP since he was introduced by now. Guess I'll just get him eventually off a free roll or something.

>>15212606

That's what happened to me, and I spent nigh 600k FP

>>15212591

>>15212606

>>15212610

I didn't think he was that rare, I pulled 2 out of 100,000 FP so I just assumed he was fairly common.

>>15212701

You're just a luckshitter

>>15212701

He is many times rarer than pulling a 5*.

>>15212701

It averages about 2.5mil or so, with some people taking a lot more. I got him in 1.15mil, which was pretty surprising, but nice. Some people have spent over four times that much and got nothing.

>>15212769

>It averages about 2.5mil or so

Since we don't have actual summon rates for the angry manlet, any odds you see are based on, essentially, anecdotal data. People tend to focus on extremes so you often only hear, "5 mil no angra" OR "Got NP2 in 100 k lol", which skews the data. People with "not bad, not good" results tend to go unnoticed even by themselves. While, I'll readily admit his drop rate is much lower than a 5*, I'm willing to bet the average is probably in the more reasonable range of 500k - 1 Mil for a first copy, just from seeing about a third of my support list having him during the Zero event. Also, bear in mind, he can show up in a free daily summon.

>>15213044

It's like how Karna references his Master in CCC.

Never ever.
