>>530325278 (OP)
should I take the story of a lotto event seriously?

I want to hold Indra's nose shut and burp in his mouth. Let's see how long that cool, stoic expression lasts.

>>530326024
Only if you're a schizo trying to create agendas out of nothing.

>>530326024
You shouldn't take any event seriously. Nasu says they're non-canon.

>>530326024
it had the mention of the death of a close friend

>Indra's NP
It was one planet busting away from being like the animations of those chink bootleg gachas of Digimon and Pokemon

>>530325278 (OP)

>>530326172
What if he burps a lightning back to you, though? He drinks alcohol all the time.

What games do you think kinoko has played this year

>>530326935

Except Ophelia who got cucked by Bryn

>>530326935

Is Arc still good? Ciel really took the crown for wave clearing even at NP1.

>>530326935
Death Stranding 2

>>530326814
We unite and burp in Mashu's mouth together until she cries

>>530326452

>>530326935
Deltarune 3 and 4 and Persona 5: The Phantom X.

>>530321674
At this point it's obviously that they fucked up their broadcasting, so they probably don't care either, I think that even second episode would end with Jester's arrival to police station.
But I'm kinda interesed how the fuck that happened, how it became a production hell.

>>530326935
To Heart

>>530326935
E33 which is probably pretty close to what Nasu was going for with the plot of FGO

>>530327161
>>530327242
>>530327512
>>530328369
>>530328471
What about his game?

>>530328837
>>530328863
E33 was just a shitty nier knockoff amusingly much as I enjoyed it.

Except Nier had the balls to erase your save when you erased the world and they didnt

>>530329038
How is it a Nier knockoff lol they have nothing in common

>>530329742
Anon the writer literally said he was heavily inspired by it.
Also
>World of artificial beings who come to realize what they are and seek to end it. The final option is to even erase yourself or not
Theres also a lot of the humor was very much so in Taros style and them enjoying doing bait and switches with rpg conventions.

>>530330163
Only Verso wanted to end it, the rest didn't even know they were fake until later and definitely didn't want to delete themselves.

>>530329038
E33 reminded me more of FFX than Nier desu

>>530330516
And only Nier really knows whats going on since Kaine was absent for the twins and Emil sudokud and still chooses to doom everyones existence

>>530330898
I'd buy the Nier thing if necrons turned out to be people or something like that but it's barely similar. Verso just wants to kill himself and make Maelle touch grass.

Still no welfare servant for this year despite we already halfway through of 2025

>>530334021
Yet another thing that they finally realized makes no profit and are fazing out
>reruns
>animation updates
next on the chopping block are welfares

I think the "funny" part of Nasu deciding Anastasia x Kadoc is the only true canon now, is that Guda x Kadoc managed to be 20x more popular than Kadoc and Anastasia ever was at its peak, and they've just been effectively cucked now. No matter what fujos do even as they're crying out that they killed self insertfags for good this time, they still somehow managed to cuck themselves again. Every male option in this game manages to cuck the fujofags who want to self insert.

>still no up

I can't wait for this year's RankUp teaser.
Screaming at eachother with my friends about who gets rankup, and then rubbing it into eachother's faces when we guess right is the most fun I have every anniversary.

>>530334021
5* welfare Olga for Anni.

The character /fgog/ loves the most.

Circuit Connect skill when?

>>530334021
everyone is getting free 5* daybit, but you can only use him for 5 minutes each day

100 portraits means we're getting 4 portrait tickets, plus the 2 tourism portrait tickets. Right?
Why did they have to make so many rare and good ones this year.

there was pandering with the city in the event?

>>530335843
I do like her. I will roll NP2 when I get the chance.
also wtf is she doing in that artwork

>>530329038
Am I the only one that really is not into Nier and into anything that Yoko Taro does? For me his works are all about
>uuuh so sad the world is so sad and unfair you now feel bad misery sad all the time
And the erase data thing is under my opinion a very shitty move

>>530335539
They've been pretty stingy with SQs recently too haven't they. There was a point we were getting 3 or 4 every event now we're lucky to get 1. I wonder if that means they are going to go ham with them during anni.

>>530337003
I loved Nier but more because I love post-apocalyptical robots and the like. I always loved games like Megaman for example.
2B being hot as fuck was more of a bonus and even then I prefer A2
I think most of it really is in the twsist. Nier keeps throwing curveballs your way. While you could deduce some of the plot twists due to stuff like Megaman Legends, the rest legit blindsides you. And that’s why I liked it so much.
Oh I also loved the concept of multiple types of androids including Executioners specifically tailored for models they knew would be too good ag the job. I also liked how Nier justified all the combat models being sexy females as while the beauty was due to human preference reflected on them, the make bioroids were actually stronger by the male frame but this made them more independent and supposedly hampered teamwork the revelations later on S types veing high end models that end up learning too much and this being accounted also indicates the actual reason would be that make Battle models would do the same and be way harder to deal with instead which is also something I like. I love organizations that factor risks like that and put according countermeasures

>>530337276
>>530335539
I really hope the reason things have been so slow is because they're preparing something big for the anniversary. But i'm stifling my hope. Every time I thought
>Woah, there's so much dead air... they must be preparing something big behind the scenes
They were, in fact, being lazy, and nothing big ever came to explain the absence of content. I hope I'll be wrong about it, but I think anni 10 will be very disappointing.

>>530326935
Seconding E33, DS2, ToHeart, and probably Hundred Line. Adding Nightreign, Dynasty Warriors, Pirate Yakuza, 07th's latest VN and probably some other VNs no one in the west cares about.

So are we forced to put our grand servant in the farming battles? Even if they are max bond? I can't replace mine out of the team

>>530337963
Fate?

>>530337963
Guess I can't into Yoko Taro's mind. He seems to know what he does but I am not someone who is into stories that are all about deppresion and sad, or bad things the majority of time. Another reason why I didn't really like Drakengard.

>>530339152
Yep. My Melu's at Bond 15 but I'm just gonna use her as an attacker anyway

>>530339157
2B is an even bigger collab slut than the cups.

New GudaCastoria artist
https://nekomatsuri.fanbox.cc/

>>530337963
IMO the big appeal to Taro is how fucking weird he is.
It makes his games memorable.

To pick on E33 there was a scene at the start where Gustaves GF looks at the camera and goes
>GEE EVERYTHING THINKS SHES EVIL BUT I THINK THE PAINTRESS IS JUST SAD
And its like wow thanks for spoiling your twist 10 minutes in game

Look at this succucup

>might as well log back into FGO EN for anni and comeback bonus
>no Castoria or MLB BG
How do people play this game without those 2, man...
I have like 3 MLB BGs in JP....

Hvae you guys also reached the point where you don't even bother to get new characters if you can't get them to NP3 minimum? All the NP1 shit I have hoarded over the years and never used because zero damage, since last year I'm not rolling anymore

>>530343797
No. I never roll for more than NP1.
*spends 30SQ*
>WOAOW!!! Lucky SSR! I might as well do NP2 now!
>throws away 800SQ
Not worth it. If the servant is built to loop NPs, maybe. But otherwise, fuck the 30% NP damage buff. I'll roll for NP2 when I can afford hitting pity, which is never.

>>530343797
I only roll for characters I like but that also means I'm also rolling for NP2+ since I like them.
Major supports are a must roll since they're supports. However sometimes they have a PU with a character I like so I have to ignore them(Summer Skadi).
If you're a new player, Castoria/Koyan Light/Oberon cannot be ignored.

>>530337276
This year we got a rank up campaign outside of anni, though.

>>530343797
There's never a guarantee and I'm usually too irresponsible to save up really big stockpiles, but for the past few years I usually try for NP2 if I think they really fill a role that needs it or do something interesting. And I've been lucky enough to hit NP2 on quite a few, some from the start and some on rerun banners. I got my first Morgan mostly on a whim in her original gacha, then got her NP2 on one of her early reruns; I barely managed to scrape up Arcueid and Aoko in their original gachas and got a lucky NP2 on reruns; and I got both Draco and Space Eresh NP2 on their first gachas. The only ones I'm kind of disappointed that I didn't go for NP2 were Kuku and BB Dubai, but for the former I already have a few other NP2 Foreigners and for the latter that would have meant not going for NP2 Eresh. Maybe Phantasmoon too for even better Alter Ego killing but I barely got her at NP1 during her second rateup so I'm just happy to have her at all.

>>530334021
Anon? Your other two summer Valkyries in the evocation shop? Your other Hakuno that became available in February? Your 5* Mashu who can 3-turn farm and has 50% battery?

>>530343797
No? I roll because I want that character first.
NP2 isn't my main interest unless I really like that character, and usually it ends badly. Indeed, most of my NP2+ SSRs are from spooks.
I was more lucky with rate up NP2 in the past year though.
I managed to get 3 NP2 on their release and 2 on their rerun.

Former GudaBB fan here deciding to pay a visit after seeing pic related. What the fuck is this shit? Not that I care anymore cause fuck the TM fanbase but it’s sad seeing this, my heart goes out for you GudaAna fans

I rolled for Titty Alter
Got another Karna
Had I spent this on Indra it’d have been him

I've never seen cuckposters this desperate in a while.

>>530348216
What did I miss? Is this from the Indra event? If yes what is Ana doing here?

>>530348636
Are you any surprised? Raikouschizo, the jew, now this clown. We've got the whole crew of living embarassments.
All with the same twitter post.

Not turning this thread into another dumpster fire over bullshit, just go to the previous one

3rd skill buff when?

>>530350827
I would ask SE.RA.PH buff when?
But Nishiide already clarified that he will undergo surgery.

>>530350601
Can I at least know what is Ana doing in the event?

Who are the best lancer supports for the upcoming Grand?

I am planning on grading Romulus

so who grand lancer????

>>530350601
Not that anon but doesn’t lines 3/5 imply Kadoc? I mean the “not her possession” and “someone close to her” seems to contradict the point being made in that post. Otherwise, the user in that x post wouldn’t be acting semi-emotional if it wasn’t referring to Kadoc, that and I’m sure she knows JP.

>>530352405
When Indra summoned himself as a Servant, he caused a shockwave that broke the concept of the sky, so to fix it he formed a Singularity to keep the shattered sky from spreading and then he nabbed the closest sky-related containers available to stuff the fragmented aspects of the sky into. Those things were our Servants: Bhima's relationship with the wind, Wandjina's relationship with the clouds, City's relationship with the rain, Raikou's relationship with lightning, and then Anastasia/Viy's relationship with snow.

>>530352749
In your case the Command Code that turns people into romans

Kind of hope Indra just says fuck the rules I'm Grand Lancer now with no elaboration.

>>530353281
I already use it but I want some other buffers to him.

Hector seems solid but maybe there are better options

>>530353045
Decided to check JP Xitter and the anon I replied to was right, sorry.

Now that the event's story ends tonight, can someone do a rundown on what happened so far, because I could care less about what happened in it?
What is Indra's deal?
Bhima?
Wandjina?
City?
Raikou?
Anastasia?

>>530352749
Someone already said Hector
Vlad, Romulus (assuming you're granding Quirinus), Leonidas, Gogh, Ashoka

Vitra if the target is Divine?

>>530353474
lancer raikou for buster lancers (40% buster + 20% atk up)

>>530353428
It's obviously karna. The pattern is familiar servant in fgo like musashi, heracles.

>>530355667
Lazy Super Karna with more flame sxf recycle...

Grand Lancer will have divinity if it's one of the poos
Enkidu and Scat will make it easier unless the gimmick is some bullshit

Herc didn't have his 12 guts so I doubt they will make the fight too hard on purpose
But It would be cool to have some lore accurate fight like Karna with 90% damage reduction armor

I wish Grand Lancer was Clae or even Scat (for maybe some Celt lore) but them tying it to the event makes it obvious that it'll be Karna. Boring imo.

I lost all interest in grands again

>>530357675
>powerful enough she can tank the BOOSTED lightning of Raikou
This aztec city is too powerful…!

>>530357668
>calling Karna boring when you want Scat of all Lancers to be the Grand
I'd suggest suicide

>>530358981
we've seen karna a million times. even scat is comparatively underused for what she can offer (the part you didn't read because you're a shitposter)

>>530353142
Thank you.

The Vajra kusogaki are still trying to kill Vritra in this event so I wonder if there's going to be some kind of connection with them triggering either the Grand or the Beast or both. Neither is also a possibility and we're overestimating the connection between this event and Grand Lancer.

>>530356746
Plot twist is that Indrajit is the villain of this event - he has the real Indra locked up somewhere and took his identity (he's a master of illusions and trickery after all), he is also the costume in the event shop. He took Vritra's powers so that he can power up Nagapasha/Nagastra (his snek weapon). He will be the Grand Lancer and anti-divine won't work on him based on his lore where he can only be killed by a common man who hasn't slept for 14 years

Don't think too hard, Grand Lancer fight is just going to be Indra and the Vajra kusogakis. AoE lancerbros rejoice

>>530360178
Maybe but I get the impression that if Indra's using a new ascension to directly fight, he'd be using Vajra outright without the kusogaki being separate

>>530360178
>grand lancer is a newfag GOD
The only way it could be worse is if it was Raishit herself.

>>530360178
Indra being grand lancer is an even bigger stretch than Tez and Quirinus. What is the point of the seven strongest heroes when half the roster is filled with gods larping?

I would have totally had sex with Lilith as she was dying.

>>530357668
> He wants Scat to be Grand Lancer over someone with an actual famous spear(sorta)

Lmao. Lol even. Is anyone else thinking it'll be Super Karna but with the two floating vajra helping out?

>>530363442
>actual famous spear(sorta)
This is another thing
None of the poo heroes were "Lancers"
Astras are more like casting magic on arrows and then they become nukes, lightning, weird magic animals, etc
They all fit more Grand Archer

>>530363442
Gay Bulge is way more famous than whatever the name of Karna spear tho, he's more famous for his gifted armor anyway.

>>530363442
That whole time the eye on Karna was Indra’s eye well good thing that was answered.

>>530361996
>Wada only got one so far
The second one will be wasted on Nero, BB, or Tamamo.

>Grand Lancer is a Poo
>Grand Rider will be either DUDE or Ozy
>Grand Caster is going to be Solomon or Gil
Dang, I wanted a Grand Cu battle

>>530361996
Who did she get?

>>530364893

>>530363442
>Is anyone else thinking it'll be Super Karna but with the two floating vajra helping out?
I don't know about them using Super Karna since among other things Super Karna's palm was replaced by Ash's gemstone so it's nonsensical as a Grand design.
But I did think about them giving Karna various targets in his Grand form that would appease people looking to use an AOE for a change. Either Super Karna's Gradius Options are extra enemies, the Vajra kusogaki if the Grand Duel is part of the story and not a separate thing that follows up the climax of the story, or if Karna's hauling around his Indra eye supernova behind him and you can target parts of it

>>530365072
Kengoro's Gawain is still my favorite. He beat Wada at her own game.

>>530364687
>wasted on BB
BB has 0 Anni CEs, retard.

>>530365635
Yeah, but BBitch has 2 summer variants, retard.

>>530364867
Would've been a great chance to use Warp Spasm too. Could've just reclassed Berserker Cu as a Lancer, renamed it Warp Spasm, and boom, Grand Lancer.
But now it feels like the chances are slim for Warp Spasm Cu to be relevant before the end of Part 2

>>530364867
He has a chance as Grand Caster but it would be more connected to Odinwank

>>530268140
Thanks for the help, it was actually pretty fun to figure out once I had an idea on how to break down the phases. Not doing the higher difficulty versions in a million years though

>>530363442
Ive heard of gae bolg like 20 times over in various weebshit media. It’s right up there with gungnir.

I have literally never heard Vasavi Shatki referenced outside of Fate. Karna himself isnt a famous hero outside of Fate either. Scat at least got the dumb SmT backdrop. Fame is really not the argument you want to run with.

Do you think Indra's third ascension will be cool or lame?

>>530368103
I don't like Pako so lame.

>>530343797
I have reached the saveschizo point.

>>530368103
I hope he has long hair to add more sex appeal
Also since it would be kinda cool subversion to Junao's ascensions too

>>530367684
Really Gay Bulge has to be at least Top 5 most famous spear used by a non-god, right? Even top 3.
The Spear of Longinus is probably the most famous but after that what else is there aside from Gae Bulg that has a major legacy? Lu Bu or Guan Yu's weapon? Anyways, the problem with the idea of a Grand Scat is that she's a fucking footnote and her FGO version is 99% OC

>>530367074
Yeah clap please care, lmao.

>>530343797
No? If I like someone, I roll for them and rarely chase for a second copy with how shit the pity and rates are this kusoge (I think Douman is the only one I ever really tried, and the second copy took over 800 quartzes and so I've learned my lesson).
Also, they tend to give you CEs or have mechanics in the event that boost damage so worrying about it that much is rather silly since np1 works just fine still.

>>530369401
>clap
>from something that happened in FGO

>>530367684
VS is a sidenote weapon even in Mahabharata because Karna is an archer. Vajra is more famous than Gae Bolg, but there are numerous interpretation whether it's a spear, some sort of dart or something entirely different shit.

Sex with the banana goblin

Man Riyo's gonna have a field day with this new Ana scene.

>>530365786
And your point is? This argument is about Anni CEs and not Summer Alts. Fucking dumbass.

>>530370941
What scene?

>>530370028
Yeah it is fuck off

I hope Grand Archer is either Tametomo or Emiya.

>>530371043
It'll be a new Servant or a new form of an old Servant. There's no way it's so out of order unless they're cooking something up with it.

Love your advisor!

> The Vajra was created by the artificer god, Tvashtri, from the bones of a holy sage, and its name literally means "thunder."

Well that confirms it, Vajra was made by a god.

>Nasu: Right now I have too much homework...

>But some of the gimmicks I was planning to use in DDD have already been used in FGO. This isn't a prepayment, but rather something I could use because I was thinking about the main story of DDD.

Even if Nasu used Fou, we know it's Olga and Roman.

>>530382685
And?

>>530383051
Nothing. There's been a discourse spanning nearly 2 decades about whether it was man-made or god-made, or whether Tvashtri was a human in Fate. This cleared it up.

Excalibur and the Camelot weapons are called divine construct and are made by the PLANET. That means it's not made by civilization, that's why Gil doesn't have it. but most god shit is actually part of civilization.

>>530383469
Back to my regular life.

>Nasu: All I can say is that they should do "Archetype Inception" [※]... I also saw the great works of our predecessors and thought "I want to make something like that too".
This man is so hopeless about his Extra shilling.

>>530383469
I am going to visit you.

>>530383508
Actually is Lord Camelot a Divine Construct? Who made the Round Table? It seems like a Human Order-based power, rather than a Gaia-based one.

>>530383508
Being made by a god doesn't necessarily make it a divine construct (though it should be IMO). But because it was in the gate and that Shirou could trace it, there were arguments that it was actually man-made.

>>530383469
Fate/Star Train

>Nasu: Well, "Archetype Inception" was exactly the conclusion of the theme of the past 10 years. It was like I had been wanting to say that for 10 years...and it just so happened that the timing was right, and I could see how "FGO" would end, so I thought I should write about it properly here.

>Humans can't live forever. I think it's okay to be selfish when you're young, but a time like this will come eventually. For that time, we should prepare ourselves properly...that's all.

>Also, including "Humanity Hymn," this is a theme that great predecessors of the past have experienced many times and handled at the same time. When I think about it, it makes me sad, but at the same time, I feel a little happy.

>>530383680
Extra Record doko?

>>530383469
Don't worry bro, Nasu even says in that interview if public pressure and Aniplex orders him to make more, he'll have to do it since he's still a wagie in the end.

>>530383735
Camelot was a social experiment by Vivian and Merlin before was crashed by Vivian evil alter ego Morgan.
It was an attempt to bridge the planet and humanity.
That Round Table has fairy letters. It helped to found the human order but doesn't mean it's human civilization run. That's why it functions in LB6.

>>Arjuna called Anastasia "Sir"
No fucking way, the translation machine must be wrong, right?
There is no fucking way they let an Indian servant use the word "Sir"

>>530383508
Divine constructs were explained by Holmes. Weapons forged by gods are also labelled as divine constructs. They don't have to be made by the planet, though one can reason god = planet. Same thing in the end, I suppose.
> That means it's not made by civilization, that's why Gil doesn't have it. but most god shit is actually part of civilization.

This is a misconception. What you're talking about is centered on inventions made by mankind. Collector EX =/= First hero perks. Gilgamesh has various NPs because he physically collected them and created a paradox. Where they come from didn't really matter. They just needed to be owned by heroes so their legends get traced back to him. The entire civilization/collector ex clause came in CCC.

>>530383839
>>Nasu: Well, "Archetype Inception" was exactly the conclusion of the theme of the past 10 years. It was like I had been wanting to say that for 10 years...and it just so happened that the timing was right, and I could see how "FGO" would end, so I thought I should write about it properly here.
yikes

>>530380993
>OC3 Shilling
Nasu STOP.

There won't be a FGO 2 in 3D because they will continue FGO 2 in this 2D sprite container lol enjoy.

>>530384013
Are you sure? Melusine acknowledges that the protection of the Round Table is something foreign to their LB, and also, Camelot is called the Tower of Human Order, not to mention that Galahad's powers are all derived from the Human Order or God.

>Why end it, why send "death"
>--I'd like to ask you about the fact that "FGO" will be reaching the end of its second chapter this year, but how do you, Nasu-san and Yakitori-san, perceive "a beautiful ending to a game"? I think it's especially difficult to end a social game.

>Nasu: Yakitori-san said earlier that he felt "emptiness" after completing "Fate/stay night". I also felt that way when I completed "FF4" [※].
BROS HE BROUGHT THIS SHIT UP AGAIN.

>Nasu is still going with the "Le evil Jewplex is making me continue!!!!"
No dumb idiot its because all the other garbage you released that isn't FGO flopped and died within the year and your side writers release novels they can't even complete

>>530384235
Would you rather reroll every single servant you currently owned again from zero? Like those poor madoka fags?

>>530384220
Blame the interviewer that hypes that piece of trash. Must be an Ereshfag.

>So I decided from the beginning that I would end FGO properly. I can't change the way I end it, but if public opinion bigger than Kinoko's ego comes along, I'll have to give in to that opinion. Because Aniplex is the sponsor!
Nah fuck him. He'll probably litter the game with more AI shit and Servant universe. Let's wrap while we have some crumbs of dignity left.

>Nasu:
>But since it's a social game, I'm thinking of an ending that takes advantage of that characteristic.
>Sorry, but I'm going to go first!
>It's a win-win situation!

What the FUCK does this mean? It sounds like he's done after part 2.

>>530384473
But Eresh was the worst part of it, she's just a parody of herself now

>>530361340
She’s probably getting two to be honest. It’s Nero we’re talking about.

Dumb MTLtard.

>>530384702
Yes you retard have you completely ignored the past 2 years? It's been abundantly clear that once Part 2 ends, even if FGO goes on, Nasu will step down from his role as head writer and come back every once in a while to force his autism on the new writing team with an event he had an idea for before going on vacation again.

Nasubros... was he a hack all along?

>>530384851
Again with this retardation. He's not leaving.

You now remember Xu Fu was in OC3

Holy shit he's still fucking talking about OC3 in conclusion. not the main story, but his pet wormface slop.

>>530384459
Yes.

This guy has no life, christ.

>>530384015
You are right, it should've been "saar", clearly a mistake from their part.

The game has been on life support since LB7 ended, doesn't get new players and will lose a part of the playerbase after part 2 ends, it's not going on for much longer

>>530385151
Sakura is going to be in mortal danger the moment he passes away. He’s using all of his influence to keep her afloat and it’s working in a sense.

Though the problem lies with the fact that it’s only because of him she hasn’t faced more scrutiny. The times will forget about her very quickly once he’s gone and he probably knows that in the back of his mind.

>>530385081
Also OC1

>>530384714
>But BB was the worst part of it, she's just a parody of herself now
FTFY

nasu's love for sloppy seconds is too strong to contain

>>530385951
They are both trash but BB was already a meme before

>>530385567
Nah. Sakura Matou is one of the three main Fate/Stay Night heroines, along with Saber and Rin, so no way in hell Nasu will die soon, and no fucking way she'll ever be a flop or fade into obscurity.

>>530385929
They made me forget it so no, I don’t remember it.

Wormbros, we will feast for as long as Nasu lives.

Reminder that Summer 9 and OC3 are the only story chapter and event respectively to all have a Sakuraface, a Rinface AND an Artoriaface (not Saber, an Artoria variant) at the same time.
Now we need an actual FSN Collab event to bring in Muramasa as well.

>>530386224
I just can't stop winning, I fucking love fucking sluts.

I remember seeing this game all the time before. Did anything happen to make it unpopular or did it just get stale?

Sakura was the most successfully implemented “tradwife”/“wifejak” in history. He even told everyone you should just accept a non-virgin woman as a part of growing up so used-goods wouldn’t feel so bad about their stupid decisions. Hope he gets his rat utopia society.

>>530386320
>no one cared about the Artoriaface and she served no purpose
>the Sakuraface was a big meme that fell flat
>the Rinface was a beloved character that got ruined
Sad

>>530386497
>Hope he gets his rat utopia society.
we are already living in it for at least 100 years already. So, yeah, he got it alright

>>530386496
It just passed its time. It hit its peak around 2021 and everything since then has been a slow slide downwards since the devs are too afraid to mess it with. They could only slow the gravy train by cutting the story pacing to nothing

>Saber on the mihomo collab is from AFTER the events of FGO

>>530387339
he just cant stop dabbing on fgo players

>>530387417
Why? Also he mentions DDD on the interview, and says that Archetype Inception is the conclusion to the theme he's been writing for the past decade. Lmao

>>530386320
FSN collab needs to bring in the side characters, because we've basically had the main cast with us the whole time.

>>530387759
i remember bitching about it years ago

Nasu will kneel to what the fans and aniplex decide

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Jk1QCN-jgo

>>530387954
Eos finally!

>>530387954
gilbro here
please translate

>>530387954
I wonder if he could fuck up the ending so badly everyone just voluntarily leaves forever?

>>530383839
Why was OC3 so ass if it was using themes from the past 10 years anons?

>>530388342
he's trying to leave because he already ruined everything that he could. he thinks "my job here is done" but money doesnt let him go

>>530384989
Yeah, because you asked.

>>530388398
No one really likes those themes that much
What people usually like from Nasu are his characters and certain concepts in his writing
But when he goes full "muh accept death muh end this is my final work this time for sure!" many just ignore it
He wants to be like Anno, kojimbo and other weirdo writers so bad its cringe but at the end his fans are just the typical otaku that just want to have mindless fun

erice is so fertile...

Realistically how many people do you think will even stick around once Part 2 finally ends?

>>530389898
Yes.

>>530389898
About 60-70%.

>>530389898
I'll probably login/logout if this game would stick with reruns and no original content.

>>530390249

We're fucked. Even if he decides to 'stay'. This confirms he HASN'T planned next part and it's not in the works for devs either. We may not even have a filler arc until he does. We'll have to wait a year or two until he comes up with something.

>>530391569
The game won't survive on events alone, only some main story servants manage to avoid being fotms now

>>530391569
Listen. Maybe Nasu has no clue but Aniplex has to, right? No way they'll just let a cash cow like this go.

>>530391569
Who are "we"?

Nasus been checked out for years so nothing really changes

>>530391758
Fgo players

Grand Rider leaked

What did she did she this?

>>530391569
This game isn't even that good to cry about it. Back then I thought that at least maybe they would use that money for more TypeMoon projects, real games and etc, but we've got only crap. They even can't produce an anime series.

>>530391826
I'll be totally fine either way.

>>530391884
i begged her for it

Honkai writer Shaoji asked Nasu about a DDD sequel in which Nasu replied perhaps in a parallel world because he has too much on his plate.

He instead used concepts planned for DDD in FGO. For example, Beast IV's "Comparison" ability was originally DDD's Kanata Ishizue's.

>>530391439
Already got one

This general felt more emotionally mature 10 years ago.
I'm not sure if it's people who regressed or there's a higher population of retards who overreact for the sake of overreacting.
If the game is over, they'll make an offline version as there's obviously enough demand for it.
If the game goes on, they obviously won't spoil it in a fucking random interview a month before the 10th anniversary and some more months before the climax they're hyping as the end of the 10 years long storyline, it would kill the momentum/fomo/sense of urgency they're trying to create in the players so that they can fucking do the story.
Part 2 was greenlit at the end of 2015, but it wasn't announced until Part 1 was over at the end of 2016, after all.

>>530393394
>This general felt more emotionally mature 10 years ago.
It was. But most who played FGO during its launch year are probably gone by now. They either stopped playing or left to play other stuff. It's been a decade, anon. Not even I drop daily.

>>530392578
Really? A shame, but I suppose it was kinda obvious it would never be developed into a proper full work. Thanks for sharing.

It's over

>>530392578
We literally know DDD has Dr. Roman and Olga.

>>530394312
I am still here but even back then, you guys ARE fucking retarded when it was about Gilgamesh vs Lancelot incessant shitposting. nothing changed much.

The fact that the population of this game is composed by retards that even reddit and fucking facebook had a better community even back then.

And I hope the trash back then are just shitposting on the thousand other gacha games from today instead. Even as a day 1 player, I never felt bad about playing the game but every time I came here I see the constant shitposting, cuckposting and for (you) posting that drains the soul of a nigga

>>530397721
gayest post i have seen today and im browshing 4chink for 3 hours already

Aesc

>>530394312
I'm still here, took some breaks from the general and had time where I played MUCH less.
I really think that simply there are more retards here (/vg/) than before, makes sense with gachas becoming more popular.

>>530358748
City tanked ORT
Frankly she's got the highest level of defense in the entire series besides ORT

Frankly it's retarded how OP City is. Tanking ORT was the dumbest thing ever and has now introduced a problem where her scaling is so absurd she frankly should not ever lose to any Servant since 99.99999999% of them cannot feasibly damage her.

>>530398852
Her gundam is the one who thank it, City herself isn't that powerful without her Gundam. So the easiest way to defeat her is to kill her before she summon her Gundam.

>>530398852
>ORT
ORT Larva

>imagine still thinking OC3 was bad due to Extraverse
If Extra was so shit, why was it the best event for 7 years? And then the one who dethroned it was Extra themed too.
OC3 was a failure because Nasu decided to be retarded and shove Tsukihime and Servantverse in it. Also, replacing Summer with it.
Servantverse has never been good as a serious story. It was alright as a Star Wars gag.
And Tsukihime is Tsukihime. It deserves its own Event.

>>530400068
Also the pacing was ass. How many chapters we spent in Kiara's bathouse?

>>530400068
>If Extra was so shit, why was it the best event for 7 years?
It wasn't. Those are tasteless faggots voting for a TERRIBLE event because has a crumb of waifu pandering. All Guda Gudas past second one easily clear Seraphix in terms of plot and cast, and has genuine humor instead of Nasu's weird as fuck cringe "comedy." The votes got spread because there are so many, that's why a bunch place high.
Seraphix is only popular with braindead waifufags.

>>530400428

OC3 was just bizarre
>Separated from half your servants for 90% of the chapter
>But when you rejoin with Xu Fu and Karna after 2/3s of the timelocks they dont really serve a purpose or do anything
>The big everyone sacrifices themselves in actually a cool sequence at the end of the second timelock, then next timelock EVERYONES STILL ALIVE AND PERFECTLY FINE
>Speaking of timelocks it felt like the story wasnt even close to being written with them in mind, both timelocks were super arbitrary and didnt happen after a big event or cliffhanger
>90% of the story was just filler, the last bosses were kind of completely irrelevant and mostly actual jokes
>Why the fuck was Arc there? Just to justify summer Ciel?
>The big """"twist"""" was KD betrayed you and was larping as KP, which didnt really have a point since she was essentially off screened 2 minutes later
>In fact calling that a twist is almost an insult since like 4 different characters flat out told you she was going to betray you. I honestly thought it was so foreshadowed it was going to be a bait and switch
Also essentially the entire plot of summer (which was also fucking awful, very probably the worst summer story FGO has ever had which is saying something) hinged around everyone acting aggressively dumb.
How many times did someone walk up to the cast and say "THERE ARE NO HUMANS IN DUBAI"?

new account who this

>>530403018
Does he have a different name in it at least or it's nothing at all? Just Indra "getting serious"?

>>530400428
Extra is still cancer. Zepar and Memespheres are the only reason Seraphix was passable (not great just passable) because they incorporated that shitty setting and grounded it in FGO logic and connected it to the Ebin plot.
While OC3 was pure undiluted Extrawankery with more BBwankery and focused on Extra shit you get swept in for no FUCKING GOOD REASON by making everyone in the cast act super fucking stupid. SU and Tsukihime shoehorned is bad too, but the Extra part didn't make sense. Instead of adapting to the OC setting, it broke the fucking pattern of it and felt truly superfluous with the WORST class fucking ever. That shouldn't exist at all.

>>530403018
He kind of looks like Karna.

>>530403535
it's Indra getting serious yeah
and this is the side of him that Vritra thinks is cool, so she tries to bring it out of him and that's why she inflicts trials on humanity

>>530404091
No, she got sent back like the previous helpers after the snow area, with Anastasia replacing her.

>>530403734
It's the floating golden parts, they look like Karna's stuff when using Vasavi (Indra's weapon).
Also same artist and all, so a degree of sameface is understandable.

>>530403758
No fucking way
That just makes Vritra a fangirl
They ruined the possibly only normal enimies relationship

>>530403018
was it really necessary to lock this for a week?

>>530404216
Swapping colors are far easier to implement that doing new animations, prease understand

>>530404237
I missed the part where she went back I thought she was still around

Surprise, look who's here

>>530404391
Like every third ascension locked for a week that wasn't Draco or Komahime : lol

>>530404391
The point of locking ascension isn't hiding something that may spoiler some stuff related to the character or the event, but making players believe that there's something that needs to be hidden and talk about it for a week.

>>530403371
Apparently this is some random apsara.

yeah indra is grand lancer lmao

>>530404565
I saw no one discussing his potential third ascension so I guess the trick doesn't work anymore

Wait Vritra wasn't some primordial evil thingy? I mean, Typhon isn't either, but I dunno, he's got a cooler backstory.

>>530404602
So what's the excuse this time for a divine being becoming a Grand?

Not the 200 IQ play he thinks it is.

Timelocking the story is also retarded. The story's retarded writing + time locking makes OC3 awful. 2+ months for ass. Why the fuck wasn't Karna used more? It's bad when fucking Bart is the best male helper there.
>>530403630
>>530403838
>wah wahhh BBwank wahhh
Sorry that your taste is shit. CCC Collab was passable not because of the FGO plot but because of CCC. You're an EOP who didn't play CCC so you wouldn't like it.

This is not even a shitpost.
Vritra comfirmed she likes serious Indra. He looks both pitiful but also cute. Her scales rise when reacted to him.
That's some Sakurai love story bullshit here.

>>530405367
Enkidu doesn't have extra damage vs divine, only a stun.

If Indra really is the grand lancer duelist, then Tesla for grand archer is basically deconfirmed since the lightning shtick is done.

>>any chief gods could be Grands
It's all so tiresome...

>romulus has no lance
>indra has no lance
Gods were a mistake

So is Indra canon grand lancer? I guess Quirinus throw away his position in Olympus didnt he?

>>530404378
Kinda funny, when they do make a "No, we legit fucking hate each other" relationship, the fans ship them like no tomorrow, like LilithxMashu

>first two revealed grands are kino
>the remaining ones are shit
History repeats itself

>>530406694
>Like them
Hmm really

>pretending indra isn't cool because you're racist
Lame

>>530406181
SEA doesn't exist in the Nasuverse.

Remember when this game is "Humanity fuck yeah" game?
Oh yeah. Now turn out the gods can be Grands. Humanity are shit and have no representation.

>pretending racism isn't based
Cringe. Pooshitters should be nuked.

>>530406929
yeah yeah we get it you're Indian

>>530406953
Do you know trung sister from, retard?

Why does Lancer receive special treatment?
They made up an entire event just to introduce the guy we will face in Crowning battle.

>>530407085
Because he's a new character?

>>530406929
Sorry if I don't care about pako pajeet 56

>>530407232
It's still going to be Solomon because Sugita is voicing the Grand Duels cms and he never stopped being grand caster.

>>530407234
>I am grand lancer
Nice lore

Indra is a grand because he's the upgrade of Karna+Arjuna, making sure they won't get two slots. So rather than give it to either of them, they gave him to Vasavi real owner and Arjuna's father.

Grand Caster Zoroaster doko

>>530405087
What a lame way to trigger this event

>>Lancer so shit they have to pick gods to be Grand
THE ABSOLUTE STATE

>>530357668
>maybe some Celt lore
I feel the best chance of a Celt getting a shot at a grand at this point is probably only rider Oisin, though I doubt it

Wasn't Quirinus basically forced summon as a Grand. He wasn't a real Grand. They created a ritual to force the grand vessel on a god using Caligula as Catalyst. He was NOT dispatched by the Counterforce. It was more like Qin case.

Reminder that the Nasuverse is a place where a global conspiracy of therapists will literally assassinate anyone who provides effective mental healthcare.

>>530407582
>Assassin is so shit they rely on gods if King Hassan is on vacations
Assassin bros...Lancer bros...

I like how no one cares about Vritra that they can just give her to Indra and people here discuss about Grand more.
Compared to the shitshow yesterday with Anastasia lol

>>530407735

I liked this event

>>530407773
We all saw the signs. She's fixated on him since introduction, and he thought she was beautiful (in my room) until he realized she was Vritra and went no way fag. Also how Vritra characterization is bullying the one she likes, and she overfocuses on Indra.

Looks like I was right to skip this events story

People care aboit Vritra? She's uggo af.

The frame flash at the end of Indra's NP is cool, not going to lie

>>530408170
Now being a grand is kind of nothingburger when the lore is a mess.

>>530408308
It's the same people that like Ibuki. Makes sense.

>>530408358
Indra's cool as fuck in design. He has 3 extremely different sprites, all high quality.

Chief Gods of pantheons being a Grand means that Zeus could be Grand Archer.

>>530408308
eh, I like her looks actually. But I don't give a fuck about her character.

>>530384220
> "Archetype Inception" ended up being very well-made.

Nasu gaslighting himself, lmao

>FGO will end only if Aniplex allow it
surely Sony will kill one of the few cashcow they have left

All Grands so far are divine:
>Musashi had divinity and was merged with her STAND (who is a god)
>Herk was himself as a god (he became the god of strength) hence "Ichor"
Now Indra.

>>530408569
I'm sure that he theoretically could, but I doubt that they'll double dip with the same niche.
Also because his LB version was a Ruler. Curious that Indra isn't too considering that he's a king of gods.

>>530408626
He also said the end of the story was non-negotiable and always intended. The game may not end but the end is set for the main story Nasu wrote.

>>530408569
Yeah it's like tezcatlipoca also can be applied to another mythology maybe odin.

>>530408693
Quirinus is technically the chief god of Romans.
And Tezca is the chief god of his pantheon.

>>530408671
Is that pattern I see here

>>530408765
But how many times did he rewrite it?

Ashoka is also qualified to be Grand Lancer and he has divinity, so another Indian god becoming Grand Lancer is not unexpected thoughbeit

>>530408671
Yeah, all of them
>>Quirinus and Tez are gods
>>Orion receives buff from Artemis
>>Noah, KH and Solomon receives buff from God
>>Taigong is Xian
Legitly only Merlin has nothing to do with gods. In fact in some stories he was destined to be Anti Christ. His father is an incubus but cmon, incubus is fucking shit.
Truly the greatest and pinnacle of humanity.

>>530407645
>It was more like Qin case
If I see one more chinktard claim Qin is Grand tier when he can't even damage base Heracles I'll lose my mind

Eight more days until the grand lancer duel in the skies outside.
Indra has officially confirmed the Grand Lancer venue.

>>530407735
Explains why the setting is full of schizos

>no grand herakles event
it's not fair...

>>another "enemies to lovers" trope
Well Indra still hates Vritra but it's kinda annoying they repeat this trope again.

I went back to double check in the story in case I misread it but yeah it's there.
What was the point of bringing up that Karna and Bhima couldn't be used in the Singularity because something was off with them, but then not explain what was going on with Karna? He just like shows up in the epilogue of the event talking about Indra's trial.

>>530407631
>rider of a divine steed that's already appeared as an CE
>half fairy/god and king of the fairies/gods
>linked with both Mannanan and Fionn/Diarmuid
Could work but there's not really any time left whatsoever for the reveal of a new servant since riders are next month and there's anniversary/summer before then. Unless he's shown off and released later could not see it happening at all.

>>530409605
Unironically too strong

>>530390891

>>530410315
The fug
Doesn't look like him

>>530410315
Weird pick. No one will choose him.

>>530409791
Wasn't Karna just going Waku waku over fighting Indra or something

>>haha I'm Grand Lancer btw
>>also in the event
>>his full power in serious mode couldn't even scratch Vritra
LMAO

So Indra being Grand confirms that Indra > Zeus because grand are meant to fight beast while Zeus got so fucking scared of beast that he would rather leave the planet than facing one LMAO.

>>530411121
Yes, and that's his first appearance in the story after Mashu and Da Vinci talk about how there's something amiss preventing him from being Rayshifted.

>>530380610
Iori bottoms

>>530411245
Beast vii is not ordinary beast and why are you thinking like this?

>>530411201
Reminder that all dragon slayers in Chaldea can't scratch weaker version than Vritra of this event.

>>530411268
Well, in the end it was just an excuse to give Arjuna some solo focus.

>>530411245
>Syncretized bum stronger than UFOChad
kek, don't redeem those NP's

>>530388398
Because Nasu is just like Kodaka or Anno, he believes that his work should be immortalized and kept static through the years as "done" not realizing that people do not give a fuck about everything else he created ( and that he keeps shoving in FGO for us to care ).

But just like Anno and Kodaka, he'll turn around and stick with it to results that might not be the best.
Kodaka tried to branch out, failed, tribe nine'd and almost went bankrupt. Anno killed Eva for good and from iconic it became cursed to even mention.

>>530410315
I'm still amused America had to censor him and lighten his skin color.

>>530384235
A new game wouldn’t be FGO2 anyways, a new app would need to be a new story with new characters, you can’t expect people to read 10 years of story on an old app to understand a new one.

>Still getting more fanart than Vritra and Indra
Not surprised.

>>530413707
People would still expect their favorite fgo servants to be in it sadly

>>530413965
Obviously they would eventually mostly appear again but they’d have to make new ones too

>>530413286
Vritra had the grail, so her defense went back to her mythological source of "can only be hurt at twilight, by something neither hard nor soft". Apparently that superceeded any anti-dragon buffs

>oc3 wasn’t good
KEK. only to /fgog/ but JP(the only audience that matters) LOVED it. Even its HakuBB farewell, where were the GudaBB scene or fucking fans, huh?

>Extra CCC was popular
Lol the fact that it was relatively niche I fucking doubt it(why was the fanbase so small then). The only reason why the 2017 collab was good is because of Melt’s pandering(which was poorly written btw). The story itself was mixed with CCC true route elements with FGO story. Melt fan’s will lie to make her seem she wasn’t written as waifubait. What a revision of history.
>anyway
Fuck this franchise and it’s fanbase for ruining GDBB. I’m off to playing Uma Musume where I can actually be happy that it’s fanbase pairs the MC with the cute uma musumes

BBfag woke up. Decline hours started.

Pekora needs friends

>>530414650
I'm sure any Dragon Slayer with a Grand container can just bypass it.

Never mind, it's the cuckposter who wants to bait. But yeah, decline hours started. Once more waifufags wake up, it will be hell all over again.

>>530414754
Who cares about your cope here, shitposter.

>>530415606
honestly, yellow isn't her color

>>530415084
They wouldn't, her defense trace back to her original mythology which mean it's on par with Indra who is the grand lancer and also Dragon slayer.

>>530414754
So you're festering uma with your cancer and lies next? Good riddance. You're just a pathetic trendchaser using lies and cuckposting to give a meaning to a life that has none.
Just die, you'll spare your parents the money.

Event's story was decent, if a little repetitive. One of those charming events with nice interactions. It would've been on par with this year's serpent event or better had the ending not been a wet fart.
Doesn't make sense to start the event with Arjuna's begrudging relationship with Vritra, complete with its own CG, develop it, and then walk back on everything at the last second to settle on Vritra as an abrupt twist villain.
Setting up Indra's flaws as a pompous braggart and an absentee father towards and Arjuna's implicit wariness towards him, but never writing the confrontation about it between the two really sours me too.
Felt like they were building into something at first but the finale is a really dire narrative backfire that spoils the rest of the experience.

>>530417867
Forgotten...

>>530418013
I get the feeling the ending was rewritten but the rest of the story wasn't changed to accommodate it

Imagine if they buff Vritra at anni instead of during this event

Rider in August.
Assassin in September.
Archer in October.
Caster in November.

>>530421090

Literally Vergil

>>530405098
>>530405462

>>530422026
They made Indra look like Vergil because they liked the "I AM THE STORM THAT IS APPROACHING" part of Bury the Light and you can't convince me otherwise.

>>530422678
It's actually because he's an absentee dad.

>>530422996
Surya soon bros

Its ogre...

>>530415084
Technically he would with enough brute force. George noticed Vritra's defense works more as a Damage Reduction based on the amount of conditionals. Karna and Beowulf that were punching her dealt a bit more scratch damage than his Ascalon and Alterjuna Mahapralaya for example. Coversely when they achieved most of the conditionals during the dawn with Scheherezade and Hans coating their stuff in bubbles, he deduced since he was coating a sword, he'd deal less damage than Karna that was coating his hands.
So yeah, theoretically if you are a Grand and have all the power boost that comes with it you'd be able to beat her down in sheer power, reduction be damned. There is also the possibility that the container may amp up a trait from his ability as Orion's Orion Orkhos as a Grand bypasses all invulnerabilities and keeps hunting through infinitely self-replication. A Grand Dragonslayer could potentially invalidate the resistances.

>>530328439
>how it became a production hell.
Seems to be a common Type Moon issue

>>530425042
In the end, raw power is absolute

>>530413741
Goddamn what were the Aztecs using when they built this city

>>530397721
/alter/ is at least funny when they doompost, fgog is just a miserable walking corpse

>>530425042
In what world that Karna's normal punch is stronger than Ascalonand Mahapralaya, they actually gave reason to that, because Fist isn't count as weapon and Vritra can't be harmed by weapons and in day or night so since they satisfy one of the conditions they could deal some actual damage to Vritra.

>>530425621
Speed of light punches + exquisite techniques of boxing = stronger than any sword

>>530391908
Well sometime you really can tell that Nasu and Takeuchi started out as a doujin circle. Even nowadays they still have the “I can do it or not, doesn’t matter” mindset most doujin creators has

>>530391690
Nasu did say if they wanted him to then he just have to keep writing, because he is being paid by them
All he said was that he can visualize how to end FGO, not WHEN to end it

>>530425621
We don't know the full nature of the conditionals. If they work like Warframe and stack multiplicatively with each other, a few conditionals may not be much, but when you have too many the difference between one more could be the difference of 10% to 1% damage

Imagine you're in Chaldea and you walk into a room. It reeks of booze and cigarettes. Dr. Feelgood by Motley Crue is blasting over a cheap bluetooth speaker. And there you see Indra and Tezca leaning back in their leather recliners watching reruns of Magnum PI. What do you do next?

>>530426290
Which Magnum PI?

>>530426670
The one with Tom Selleck

>>530426801
I get a chair and start to watch it too.

>>530410315
Judgemental as always I see...
>>530410761
He's Emiya, he's a meme (in other ways than Redman), he plays a big role in the F/GO SE.RA.PH. manga. I'd say he might have a chance.
>>530413286
The funniest thing is that it the major complaints were about his lips (which was not addressed) and a some questionable things Sasaki Shōnen said about his design, not the darker skin in general.

It is strange. In the epilogue, when Indra says his “title”, the crowned kanji that normally comes out when a Grand Servant reveals his title is not shown at any point. Nor is there any mention of it in his character profile, nor do the members of Chaldea comment on it because Indra only says it in the epilogue to a group of alcoholic and Indian servants, making a sort of lancer tournament against him.

>Scat isn't Grand Lancer (True) but will be the best Grand Lancer (Player)
uhhhh kino?

>>530404775
Rules exist to be broken. Specifically by me and me alone. Everyone else has to follow them to a T, otherwise I will start passive-agressively retconning left, right and center.
>t. Nasu

>>530428745
BASED

>>530404775
I really hated this one loophole in particular. Quirinus being an exception due to being close to mankind still worked somewhat (even though Orion would have been a man that became a god if he accepted Artemis' proposal)
However, cheating by creating a human body is something ALL the Olympians could do. And since Tezcatlipoca cheated further and forced himself in the Assassin container to fill King Hassan's spot because he was the sole qualifier, this essentially means someone that has the bare minimum qualifications can force himself in other containers anyway. Fuck's sake, the requirement for Grand Caster is Clairvoyance. Zeus can arguably be Grand Archer because of the Tesla Lightnings and since he has Clairvoyance he could shove himself into the Grand Caster container by that logic.
Nasu wasn't thinking. Neither when he estabilished the rule nor when he broke it. It's ironically one of the few situations Sakurai actually took that more seriously than him.

>>530404854
Shut up and start cleaning, alayajanny.

>>530429114
I love that artists have decided that Skadi is younger but slightly chubbier

>>530429534
>Zeus can arguably be Grand Archer because of the Tesla
At the end of this event Indra states that he could be an Archer but chose to be Lancer just because.
Shooting lightning is a good enough excuse to be an Archer in my opinion

>>530429534
Zeus is going to be the Grand Rura.

>>530429771
It's literally what Koyama said
>captcha:GAYRJ
wtf

We ARE getting a Morgan/Tonelico art this year, right?

>A jobber god like Indra is Grand Lancer
The Grand title really means nothing, uh.

>>530428463
One thing I noticed is that Arjuna said that so long as Indra's here, the trials will continue so I wonder if they'll use Indra as the excuse for us having Grand Trials

>>530430653
Takeuchi already did Okita, Mash and Jeanne Alter so who knows

>>530429872
Afaik bow is the actual main weapon in India culture, their traditional form of dueling is shooting bow on chariot
So their main class is actually rider and archer, not lancer. Same thing in Japan, I remember reading that samurai who only know how to use katana are laughed at, as they would often use bow, and katana is only for when they get close

>>530404494
Wait is this real? How does the scene goes?

>>530404602
>Fate shills humanity Fuck Yeah! shit
>Also Musashi is the only grand that is not a god, demi-god or empowered by God.

>>530430829
>complaining about jobbers when Grand Herk exists
The fact that he's a Grand in his worst class is even worse.

>>530430829
Name your candidate then

>>530431091
Fionn

>>530430946
Takeuchi should stop being a lazy retard and keep working if he is already using the same poses he always does.

>>530431046
>or empowered by God.
Musashi's powers all come from her devotion to her Jap-Shiva god

>Musashi is connected to Buddha
>Orion and Herc are connected to Zeus
>Quirinus is the Chief God of his mythology
>Solomon is connected to God
>Gil is connected to Marduk
>Taigong is connected to the Supreme Emperor
>KH is connected to God
>Tezca is one of the Chief Gods of the Aztecs
So at the end the Grand requiriments were to be close to a Male Chief God
Probably to parallel Beasts who are related to Earth Goddesses and Sinful Demons

>>530404982
They cannot think of a human lancer that could be a Grand, for some reasons most legendary lances are in the hand of gods, same thing with Gungnir and Odin, or Amenosakahoko and Izanagi

You've got Cu and Karna already in Chaldea as a Lancer. Lu Bu in Chaldea. They gave Percival Longinus. You've got Guan Yu still unreleased.
They have plenty of options

>>530431091
I don't have one in mind, but Indra isn't even the most important Indian characters present this event. At least Tez has the status as a god in his own mythology to justify his title.

>>530431860
>Karna
So, the guy with the lance of the guy we are fighting as Grand Lancer?

>>530431331
just make Longinus a Grand or something

NP buffs when?

>>530430883
I don't think Indra will impose the OTHER Grand Duels, but I can see him masterminding/kickstarting some other smaller events.
This Grand Duel is specifically Indra issuing a challenge to other Lancers, so I'm more interested in how he said that it's only Lancers but *for now*, if it means that Grand Duels will be open to different classes in the future or if they'll use him to come up with some other stuff like the lottos with Exhibition Quests.

>>530431331
Rhongo Bongo is very important in Fate's lore and a gift from the big G in welsh folklore. Just bring back Simba.

Merlin being the sole exception of a Grand who has nothing to do gods makes me kinda root for him.
It's like talent vs hard work thing. You kinda appreciate this guy.

>>530432798
Wait, explain the Welsh lore there. The variant of Legend Arthur I learned in literature classes was really ancient, with Druid transition into Catholicism, no Galahad only Percival etc. so I'm blindsided from Rhongomyniad also in it Mordred wielded the reforged Caliburn instead of Clarent

>>530432798
Rhongo is a god in though

>>530429534
One issue with Nasu breaking the rules in the instances of Grands is that it's thoroughly unsatisfying. Nasu breaking established rules as the culmination of a story, showing how it's a miracle in that context is the intent.
Breaking the rules for Quirinus was a case of people already expecting Romulus to get some wank and just it being done in a different way than expected. Even if people don't care about Romulus it was a, "Yeah, we get it" since it was foreshadowed for ages.
Something like Indra is a dude being tossed in at the last minute, getting wanked and saying, "lmao Grand Lancer." Tez getting wanked as Grand Assassin is something people accept because Nasu established the Assassin class as shitters and the context of it being "nobody else qualifies so Tez cheats his way in because you gotta have SOMEBODY in the seat" and also that Tez' introductory chapter had him get established as a character who people enjoyed reading.
For Indra it's a character people don't even care about being allowed to break the rules but doesn't have the Romulus aspect of it being something that at least was built up and it's for no adequately explained reason.

The duel Grands being also new character kind of breaks the theory crafting because then they can just release the opponent 2 weeks before it like they just did.
Well, at least Rider can't be like that thanks to Summer.

>>530433492
>Well, at least Rider can't be like that thanks to Summer.
You act like a grand fight cant be a swimsuit servant

>>530432926
Merlin is related to Cernunnos, ancient forgotten Chief God (also wanked in Wicca)
He, Artoria and all arthurian servants have Abrahamic and Celt wank

How does Erice feel now that her mother can be a grand lancer?

>>530433729
It can't, right?
>>530433770
Even ignoring that, our Merlin is an half demon spawned by someone that can live between earth and the moon, plus a Beast larva

>>530433729
>Well, at least Rider can't be like that thanks to Summer.

>>530433797
You mean because gods can be grands or because Izanami shat out 8 different thunder gods when she got dumped and divorced after she became a smelly corpse?

>>530431286
How is Gil connected to Marduk? His main divine connections are Lugalbanda, Ninsun and Shamash.

>>530431331
Vlad as the most infamous impaler in history, his NP already has the thematic idea of "denying invaders from entering your territory" which is incredibly suitable for a spear.

>>530434052
The first part and they confirmed a while back that Izanagi and Izanami spear Ame-no-Nuboko is a divine construct so they could be granted lancers too. Since this event confirms that any major god can be a grand.

>>530433058
In the Welsh Triads, a group of medieval manuscripts preserving parts of Welsh folklore, Rhongomyniad, Caledfwlch and Carnwennan are listed as weapons given to king Arthur by God.

>>530433082
Funny how Romulus and Tezca's issues are done due to Sakurai.

>>530431286
>gil
>grand
You're gonna have to pick one. Gil has already stated he is not a Grand.

>>530434489
And his NP is even impalation itself. Unfortunately the Vlad that best symbolizes that isn't a Lancer and they did nothing with the Extra Vlad to shill those qualities.

>>530434489
>>530434815
Now you remember that piece of lore about how Vlad is only seen as a hero in his homeland of Romania, I wonder how that affect things

>>530434509
Well, first I think that she would need to have Izanami in Chaldea before thinking about it
>Since this event confirms that any major god can be a grand.
I also wonder if it's more the case that a major god can get serious only if it's in a grand container.
Only reason I'm not even slightly entertaining Grand Rider Quetz for the duel is because her artist is on hiatus/depression break from what I understood.

>>530434995
>Quetz for the duel is because her artist is on hiatus/depression break from what I understood.
Kukuslop got an anni CE tho

guanyubros we lost...

>>530434985
I wish stuff like that got explored more. He even got debuffed outside of Romania due to that.
Sucks that this kind of thing stopped being used since long ago.

What this argument even? I thought the lore is that the Grand Trial doesn’t necessarily mean you are fighting Grands? It is just a “You need to beat this person to qualify as a Grand of this class”

>>530435426
At the end of the event Indra called himself a Grand Lancer or at least a "Great Spear wielder" with the ruby text saying "Grand Lancer"

>>530434995
There should be nothing stopping Izanami from being summoned she can just do what Tezca and Indra did and she’s a goddess of creation can easily make her own vessel. But you know Meteo too lazy.

>>530435940
Then she'd have to pay child support to Erice for 14 years, and that ain't happening

>>530433082
>Tez getting wanked as Grand Assassin is something people accept because Nasu established the Assassin class as shitters and the context of it being "nobody else qualifies so Tez cheats his way in because you gotta have SOMEBODY in the seat"
Nothing about this is an acceptable explanation.

>>530360367
Fucking hell. I take it back. It should have been Karna. At least Karna is an established heroic spirit. Why the fuck are big dick gods in 3 fucking grand slots? It completely defeats the point. Not only that, but it means the grand can be any new character which weakens points of speculation and hype. They just wanted a way to shill Indra and went the power level route.

>>530435940
Grand Pretender Yabadabadoo when?

Hey at least Grand retard Eric Bloodaxe is human.

>All Chief gods can be grands you rike anons?

The more I think about it, the weirder it is. Indra was not always using a servant vessel. He crafted one specifically for this event. So this basically proves that just fucking anyone can get selected as a grand even if they became a part of the class like 5 seconds ago? Even when there is no recorded beast to face?

Why even male up these rules if they’re never going matter?

The concept of a Grand having to be human was probably created in relationship to Orion's story, as it made his decision to stay human impactful. Nasu probably finds it too restrictive nowadays and most likely wants everyone to quietly forget the rule.

are you happy about the Protea swimsuit tease fgog?

>>530437785
lippers keep on getting shot in the back even when they're already dead

>>530437916
we're never fully dead, we're always shambling along crying "Just a welfare would be fine" or "Please a CE at least" or "Those boobs were fine huh?"

It would be interesting if they at least confirm that every servant who wanted to be Grand have to also pass these same trials. It would at least partially explain why no one can fill in KH place yet

Nobody is commenting on it, so I will.

Vritra costume is kinda nice.

>>530437465
>So this basically proves that just fucking anyone can get selected as a grand even if they became a part of the class like 5 seconds ago?
This isn't really a problem anymore now that fgo already legitimized this as a gameplay mechanic a few months ago
>Even when there is no recorded beast to face?
This hasn't mattered in the slightest for half of the "grand servants" up to this point anyway
>Why even make up these rules if they’re never going matter?
Because setting rules means setting expectations to epically subvert

Can't believe even Alaya is outsourcing Grand slots to the jeets, baka

It's just a recolor sadly

>>530437610
And Nasu’s idea sucks. The restriction makes Grands much more meaningful and goes to show the power of humanity that Nasu so schizophrenically adores. A human may not be as powerful as a god but there is one thing he refined so far that it stood at a pinnacle.
If anything allowing gods to be Grands but still keepinng the chosen one human heroes could reinforce that further. But he isn’t even doing that.
Merlin, King Hassan, Orion, they were all pretty strong by their own right iutside their niches and in those niches they showed their worth. But someone like Indra doesn’t have that, he is all power. It works when he is a normal servant because it’s funny since he is a mix of Jason and Gilgamesh doting asshole parent. But it just cheapens everything that the Grands were when he is one.
Fuck’s sake for all that people were arguing with Karna or the Artorias they actually would have kept in line with the pre-Quirinus Grands.

Is there anybody here who's only gotten 1 CE drop or none at all?

>>530439620
How many apples did you use? I'm at +12 but I only got it after uhhh 130 golden apples and some hundreds of bronze ones.

>>530438196
When Nasu had that weird “only King Hassan qualifies” my theory was actually because of the mix of “high stats” + whatever restriction. So for example Merlin has stats to compete with Knight Classes and Clairvoyance. But the Assassin class only has KH filling both of its conditions. So while rest of the 19 Hassans probably fulfill one requirement, their inherent lower stats filter them out, and conversely the physically stronger Assassins don’t have the other trait. Tezca fills both.
I thought the Grand Duels were to prove that X servant could be worthy regardess of the stats on the sheet by showing he could best a Grand in combat. Thiugh the feature was just implemented and nothing exposed on it

>>530439620
30 boxes and only one ce drop here

Honestly I'd rather just stop thinking of this and wait for whatever excuse they pull out in the 10th anniversary Famitsu interview.
It usually releases on the 15th of August, right?

>>530438624
>setting expectations to epically subvert
Except when you do that every constantly it kind of loses its meaning. Especially when we're still expected to act as if those "rules" still exist.

>>530439539
It's such a funny affair
>makes a "gods cannot be grands" rule just to throw it under the bus by giving one easy fucking workaround that any god worth their salt can perform.
Conceptually, it is, as you said, a terrible idea. The seven grand were the strongest heroic spirits. Yet a third of the known ones are gods? The only solace here is that there is some respect towards "grand-class" by having it filled with king of the gods. Anything that surpasses grands as a whole would have to be a beast or something of that calibre.

We're making our own grand system. Alaya's rules are irrelevant.

>All those Sun related Event Bonus Servants
>And yet nothing sun related happens
>Random NPC who is Vritra appears for three lines in the final chapter
>Vritra is now randomly the last boss and has a bare minimum recolor
>Grand Lancer is the new god Servant now
I have a sneaking suspicion that they couldn't get the actual Grand Lancer assets and/or voicelines done in time and had to quickly redo this event and settle for Grand Indra

>>530441051
Wouldn't it be easier to reanimate a Servant? Making a whole new one with various ascensions seems like more work.

>>530441789
More like Indra was intended to be in the event but not intended to be the Grand Lancer.

>>530436536
Retard

>>530436419
Point is that while it was in part due to Nasu's stupid decision to say, "lol only King Hassan can be Grand Assassin" that it's easier to swallow someone cheating the system to get it. Tez wasn't walking into a class full of many different characters who are viable choices and last minute saying, "None of you, it's me" he was assigned a position that was said impossible for anyone else to be placed in and where most of the class hasn't been constructed to "feel" worthy of the seat. Lancer has so many viable options that even outside of the big popular 5* it also has characters like Hector, Fionn, maybe even Don Quixote where you could do something cool with them in a Grand seat.

>>530409205
>>>Noah, KH and Solomon receives buff from God
Solomon had divine authority in life, according to Roman and couldn't be considered a human existence. Not just due to his "personality." He listed the authorities as making it impossible.

>>530441051
Between the two rulers and one avenger I was wondering if this was going to have a throwaway line or something about what everyone else is doing when their class is arbitrarily banned while they're not actually part of the banlist
But no, looks like bizarre Kadoc pitybait is the most they can manage

If they were to release a Greek God I'd rather have Demeter than Zeus.

>>530441051
The sun servants were there to pad the roster and give a better idea of the event theme (sky/weather), they didn't have a trial because this event was to give Arjuna focus with his relationship to Indra, Karna having a playing part would take attention away from it.

>>530442146
Tezca was only an Assassin due to a certain writer's interference.
Even in Olga's dream he was a Berserker.

The silly thing is that we have been able read a Grand unless they're hiding their powerlevel like Orion, but not only does Indra not hide his powerlevel, he also fully displays his power, and stays at Chaldea like that and nobody, not a single person, not even Tez the guy who is super obsessed with the fact that he's a Grand, realized that Indra was Grand Lancer until Indra said as such

>>530442356
No, put all 3 from Olympus in the same event.
This way Demeter gets demoted to 4* and she's easier to pull.

couldn't Indra just be showboating? it'd be hilarious if he's not the Grand Lancer.

>>530442565
His "Grand Lancer" thing also didn't have a mention about the Crown Position, so it's entirely possible that he's just "Grand tier" rather than holding the crown.

>>530442746
Is that really a problem? He just didn't use the Grand kanji specifically right. I'm sure there are many other instances like that for Grands.

People are too busy talking about Indra as Grand Lancer to notice that when he proposed the Grand Duel, he also mentioned that he could have done it as an Archer if he felt like it.
So the guy can also summon himself as Grand Archer

Humanity is a bitch that can't do anything without divine help
Nasu's "Humanity Fuck yeah message" is OBSOLETE

>>530443315
Think anon is referring to Amaterasu since she’s already a beast she could do what Indra did to make herself a grand because she’s a chief god.

when he got serious Indra used his vajra like fin funnels and for beam spam so he could have been developed as an Archer and reclassed to Lancer to use him for the Grand Duel, or its fgo's beamspam love at work again.

>>530443675
Seriously, years of Humanity GREAT WE WILL REACH THE STARS
And now Nasu has depression, obsessed with death, changed how Grands work to be less humanity wank, and his current message is humanity should give up and let the next species take charge

He literally looks like Junao with shorter hair.

servants and heroes also almost always have godly weapons or blessings for their NPs or mail skills.

The problem is when the grand is outright a god that it just feels pointless. the grand were supposed to be heroic spirits only. such a flimsy philosophy and theme.

>>530444447
AI eventually will gonna rule this world, like it or not.
So whatever.

At least King Hassan, Taigong, Solomon, Galahad and Merlin don't have Divinity as a skill. Every other one has though. Even Ashoka.

>>530443675
That message was always stupid because the Gods have been helping (you) in part 1 and part story. Indra says (you) have various Gods blessings in the event story.

>scripted loss
>scripted loss

imressive

Gods are just tools for an end.

>>530443073
I mean yeah. people have said time and again that poos are more archers than lancers. if he can be grand lancer, then he more than qualifies as grand of any class that doesn't have a gimmick.

>>530443543
That thing was that Karna was merely not compatible with the singularity, the instable graph was for Bhima and I guess others that got summoned as Trial givers.

>>530442829
The Crown kanji has always been used when declaring a Grand, at least the first time. Even when comparing Qin, Melu and Galahad the kanji is used. Indra also has no social interaction with any other official Grand Servant, even Romulus belongs to the KH social circle (This is known thanks to Arcade)
I want to see more Grands in the game but it's hard to say that Indra is one.

>>530431695
He's the "son" of something that lives between the Earth and the Moon.

I do find it odd that Indra doesn't seem to have Vasavi
Is it more of an arrow than a spear?

>>530431695
He's a larva
Sure, one that won't develop in a Beast, but he's not normal at all.

>>530443073
>So the guy can also summon himself as Grand Archer
He didn't do it because he'd have to fight GilCHAD.
>>530444589
>Taigong
isn't this cunt a Xian?
King Hassan, Solomon, Galacuck also have some god affiliation or blessing. Might as well be the same. Same with Noah but people forget him. Merlin is the only G here.

>Goddesses DUMB and EVIL BEASTS
Femalebros...

>>530444904
>no social interaction
>new character has no social interaction but to those within his cultural sphere. of which there are MANY.
Not the best argument
> hard to say that Indra is one.
the very strong guy who got a humanoid vessel saying he is grand, and is the grand form the grand duel, is probably the grand.

>>530445016
It's a dart, so a spear meant for chucking

>>530433891
>>530433770
>>530432926

Fun fact: Cernunnos and Morgan are married in mythology. Morrigan is not just a death goddess but THE mother of celt gods in the most ancient take, the Earth Mother.
Merlin and Morgan Le Fay are connected to Sky-Forest Father and Earth-Water Mother too, that's why Merlin's a horned in some takes of Arthuriana, and why they have something going on.

>Indra shilling the Grand Lancer duels
>Archer position was thrown last
Well at least we know whoever is the Archer of the event close to that duel is gonna be the next Grand Archer speculation be damned.
It was fun speculating Grand Berserker while it lasted though

>>530444904
You're talking about the 冠位 [グランド] thing, right? What did Indra's line use specifically?

>>530445148
eh they had it coming desu
early Nasuverse loved goddesses too much
reminder it took us nearly half a decade of FGO to get a proper male counterpart to Goddess Divine Core

I thought a curry grand would be Krishna or Adult Rama well whatever.

Among everything that this shambling rushed-rewrite-retcon hat trick of an event has managed to accomplish, the worst is that they reveal who the Grand Lancer is and then make us wait a fucking entire week before we actually get to do the Grand Duel.

>>530437610
It makes sense because Orion was a REAL Grand dispatched by the Counter Force. In case of Quirinus, it was a god summoned in a Grand vessel by US, we built the vessel because otherwise Quirinus can't manifest, not because the CF chose him as Grand.

>>530445408
>>530404602

>>530445408
To put it in your terms he used 偉大なる槍使い [グ ラ ン ド ランサー]

>>530445710

He still lost his Grand seat after Olympus though

Solomon may not have them in gameplay but Roman confirmed he had Divine Authorities when he was alive presumably. This was one of the reasons why Solomon couldn't be human.

>>530445769
He also doesn't refer to himself as Archer with the traditional nomenclature, so I'd chalk this up to his speech patterns

Raikou won

>>530446173
>rank up on transformation with NP charge
>it's only for herself

>>530445218
It is not an argument, it is the pattern. Grads servants and candidates for the crown have been known to know each other since before they saw each other in some singularity known to us.
>Proto Merlin considers KH his “tomo gurando” (grand friend)
>KH knows Romulus and even anticipates what he would say in a certain situation
>Taigong knows Noah and calls him tomo gurando
>Tezca knows Noah
Etc
Indra doesn't comply with that or the Kanji. Sorry, but it doesn't seem to be an official grand.

>>530445824
The point is that neither Indra or Quirinus are dispatched by the CF. Quirinus was an artificial Grand.It was more like he couldn't be SUMMONED unless he had this kind of strong container.

>インドラ : まあ弓使いア ー チ ャ ーでもいいのだが、そこは気分だ。
Oh so he could be grand archer too guess that anon wasn’t lying.

>>530445769
I see what you mean here, but at best we can say that maybe this means he's not a "canon" Grand Servant with the Crown Rank, or something like that, because the Grand Duel's canocity is dubious to begin with.

>>530446473
he mentioned Solomon never changed and was like that from birth, unlike other HS who change and mature. The rings probably were bestowed to him since then.

>but he wished for wisdom
That's what his Servant version says. Servants are modified by the perception humanity has of them. Ars Nova is a np made by human perception rather than facts of what happened. To humans, it seemed Solomon gave his treasures to God, when in reality, Solomon threw his ring into the future, following God's orders.
Goetia implied the HS version of Solomon is weaker than the living one.

>>530446965
>Goetia implied the HS version of Solomon is weaker than the living one.
Solomon has no power to control the DGs as a heroic spirit.

>>530446473
He specificially said "was born with too many Authorities" I think. A lot of what Roman said of Solomon made him sound like a Living Servant, but this was before Nasu developed that as a Bad thing so probably didn't notice.

So what's the point of the Independent Manifestation skill again?

>JETS is Grand level without the help of gay Gods or divine blessings
He is so fucking strong

He's a lightning god, if Tesla can be summoned as an Archer because of his zappity zap then all of them should count too.
Also he's an Indian.

>>530445840
It’s pretty obvious at this point the writers themselves don’t give shit about the Ramayana they are clearly Mahabharata fags first.

>>530447114
Which means it was probably an authority that was not recorded with him. Because he has no divinity as Servant. Nasu's not consistent with this shit (none of the genderbents SHOULD exist if he were) but when he does, Servants aren't souls but records of a hero.
The ascended beings, for example, like Buddhas or Xians, have records but their real souls are transcendental. We can assume it's similar to "angels" like Galahad.

Gods are cringe.

>>530447176
People need to not confuse IM with self-summoning. Gods have always been able to summon themselves through loopholes. Otherwise it's very difficult depending on the era. Saver was the first to do so.

IM doesn't give a shit. You get to be there in full, wherever you want, and you are your own anchor. No mana problems either. And because you're a fixed existence, existence erasure is or time manipulation is either mitigated or cancelled. That's why Space Eresh (yeah yeah, she's trash but still) had nothing to fear from BB's anti-servant/anti-purge de-summon beam.

Until Nasu corrects me, I'm going to assume the real Galahad and Solomon became angels, and their Servants are versions of them with leftover "what if" regrets and attachments. That's why Solomon as Servant could wish and why Galahad could get bias. Like Buddhas and Xians.
