>>4309986No noteworthy news.I untimately decided for that image for the OP, I'm sorry for those who may not like it.
Pancake. Also, I have the silliest fun with assigning the various stars of destiny to the servants. Just caters to the Suikoden fan in me.
>>4309986This is so cute https://www.pixiv.net/en/artworks/123361075
One more to go
>>4311330Morgan?
>>4311469> Eats her siblings on NPhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOLBMwXcDzgWhat an adorable manifestation of pure evil. On the other hand, this is the first confirmed appearance of Violet in FGO.
>>4311469Why did we get a 2nd summer BB if we were just gonna get Kazuradrop right afterwards anyway? Not to sound disappointed, but I don't like how much screentime the Sakura 5 and the Extraverse take up in FGO. Popping up for a story every now and then is cool, but at this point it feels like FGO is being used to get people hyped for the Extra remake that's taken forever to come out.
>>4311564The only reason I can think of that she can also be her LB6 version. The costume she gets makes her her fairy variant and all.
>>4311564I think they just like them. Doesn't make sense to use the Sakura 5 to promote a game in which they don't appear (regular Extra).
>>4311578But they're connected to said game and it's characters, hence why we saw the Hakunos in the last story. As stated in the past you can't think of BB without thinking of Hakuno as well. So I disagree with you on that
>>4311592You can think about Hakuno without thinking BB, though. Which is good, because BB is a terrible character.
>>4311603Terrible gameplay wise? I think she's pretty decent to use.
>>4311608No. Terrible CHARACTER. I already disliked her in CCC.
>>4311564I mean, to be fair, there's a decent argument that F/GO only exists because of Extra, so this can in some sense be seen as repaying a debt. It was TM's first try at doing (non-fighting game) gameplay, and on a mechanical and story level a lot of parts of F/GO were clearly modeled on Extra, sometimes with a few tweaks (basic combat is turn based, attacks are with three types of cards, getting three in a row grants an Extra attack, a limited list of servant skills that can be used every now and then, and some less powerful utility options the master has access to, NPs as cinematic super moves, QP as currency, a personal room to talk to your servants with, and so on.) And that's without even getting into individual characters.
>>4311612I highly doubt this is the case. FGO exists because of one reason and one reason only, money. I don't think it has anything to do with Extra. I think FGO has outlived it's storytelling capabilites and is now used to tell stories with other characters from other games to pretty much be not only promotional material but also allow writers to tell whatever type of story they want with them now. Almost 10 years of a game that has been directionless since Solomon would do that to a game.
>>4311612A lot of the lingo is also directly lifted from Extra. Like code cast, command codes and spiritrons.
>>4311618I think you're looking too deep into it
>>4311619They certainly didn’t use those terms in Fate/Stay Night where there wasn't even a lick of technology and magic mix like it was later introduced with Extra.
>>4311620But you're implying that because of those terms FGO is heavily marketing Extra characters. That the game is doing it because of some sort of debt. That's like saying Artoria was in later Extra games because Extra used the holy grail war idea from the original games and is now indebted to them. In reality it's money and the devs using previous game concepts in newer ones. I doubt when people heard command codes they all immediately thought of Extra.
>>4311330Naisu!>>4311472Yes. . .>>4311469Glad she wasn't BB!Dubai.>>4311551>What an adorable manifestation of pure evil.You can say that again.>VioletNow maybe we can get her in 2 years when we get another EXTRA related Event.>>4311564I don't see how getting Kazuradrop invalidates getting another BB prior...I pointed it out before, but in 9 years, there were 4 EXTRA related Events (and 4 Events with some level of BB focus, 3 of them being the same as the EXTRA related ones), so personally I don't feel like it's all that frequent. If anything, the frequency to which Amakusa shows up in Events bothers me way more.My only concern regarding DCG!BB is that I already used so, so many SQs to get Summer!BB, so I fear I'll have to use pity to get her...>>4311592>you can't think of BB without thinking of Hakuno as well.I certainly can.
>>4311621>But you're implying that because of those terms FGO is heavily marketing Extra characters.I'm not, that was the other anon. I'm saying that Extra heavily influenced the terminology that would get used by FGO and that, in fact, it is influenced more by Extra than it is by the original Fate since things like how Gilgamesh is written is straight out of the Extra games, not Stay Night obviously.
>>4311551Wow, they gave her a Swimsuit Alt in her regular Ascensions, plus a Muryan Costume? Fancy.
>>4311631>Yes. . .I just thought that was the crazy snake
>>4311644I still don't think that's the case. I think that's just some writers are used on different games. I don't think any Fare game directly influenced any other Fate game. The only thing that influenced these game is the almighty dollar.
>>4311631When did I ever used the word invalidates? Please stop trying to put words in my mouth.
>>4312190I mean, you're clearly and obviously wrong, because of course Fate/Stay Night influenced the other Fate games, it created the entire setting.But even setting that possible oversight aside, it's pretty easy to point out a very specific example of the storyline from the Extra games influencing F/GO's.story. Two of the Lostbelts in F/GO, Olympus and Avalon, are Lostbelts precisely because they handled the threat of Velber 02 as originally introduced in Extella differently. In the Atlantic Lostbelt, Zeus combined the Twelve Machine Gods and drove off Velber 02, which is why they still have physical bodies in Olympus. And in the British Lostbelt, the Faeries never forged Excalibur, so there was nothing to stop Velber from destroying all of Earth's human civilizations and most of the land, which is why it's built on top of Cernunnons in the first place.
>>4312204Oh my god shut up. You're just talking but your ass now. "Oh they share terminology so that clearly means everything in FGO is influenced by Extra". Shut up and stop kissing the Extra games ass loser
>>4312204This is the result of someone with no life people. Seriously anon no one here gives a fuck. We're all here to talk about yuri. Take your need shit somewhere else https://youtu.be/IRsPheErBj8?si=oJMG7yaHCRAE4eoC
>>4312204Anon you're using the word influence wrong. There's no direct influence on FGO's story from Extra's story. To have influence over FGO that would mean it changes or has impacts FGOs story in some kind of way. Since the LB stories are not impacted in at from by the Extra story said story can't really influence it, especially if the writers are mostly the same people. That's like saying a superhero movie influenced another superhero movie just because they have a shared reference between them. Now if something Hakuno did had an impact on Gudako's story, or if key elements of Extra directly impacted FGO, than I would agree that FGOs story is influenced by Extra. Since both games are independent of each other you're wrong in saying Extra influenced FGO. Also I a company can't take influence from themselves when it's the same writers for the most part. That's like Takeuchi saying he was influenced by his own Artoria drawing when drawing Jeanne or Morgan. Can Nasu's writing really influence Nasu's writing?
>>4311780At first I thought "No matter how you look, you can't see anything other than Morgan". But I suppose mistaking her for Kiyohime is fair enough, if you haven't seen Summer Morgan yet.>>4312191By your phrasing, it sounded to me like "If we're getting Kazuradrop anyways, then there was no need for another BB", after all, you were questioning the necessity of one, in the presence of the other, and relegating something as "unnecessary" is invalidating it. But if that's not what you meant, then I'll retract my words.
>>4312204>of course Fate/Stay Night influenced the other Fate gamesHow humble of Nasu to be so influenced by his own writing >>4312228No apparently Nasu is just a really arrogant guy.
>>4312228>if key elements of Extra directly impacted FGOInb4 Velber in Part 3 because Extella is dead. The way I view FGO is that they're using it to, occasionally, actually make use of a bunch of Nasuverse crap that would otherwise never really be used anyway. Like ORT, which would otherwise only have remained some big boogeyman.
>>4312624
>>4312218>We're all here to talk about yuri.There's nothing much to talk about then.
No matter how much time passes these two are still great together.
I wish there was more Artoria x Morgan.More Artoria in general honestly...
Is Prisma iliya yuri? Is there a lot of yuri content? I specifically want to consider this the title is separate from the general Fate universe, because I heard that there are a lot of Yuri, is that so?
>>4314796It's a mixed bag. The answer you got to this same question in the general thread was pretty accurate. There's a lot of girl-on-girl action sure, even if a lot of it is overly fetishized or played as a joke. I will say though that while the whole brother-complex bit is largely a moot point as a romantic axis, as was pointed out, what they left out was that Shiro does nevertheless have a pretty substantial part in the story later on that is kinda detrimental, especially if you're looking for something "separate from the general Fate universe."
>>4314796The relationships between the three girls are fantastic. There's nothing quite like that in all of Fate. The manga might or might not end in explicit yuri but it's the best thing we have.
>>4316235
>>4311645Many new servants are getting swimsuit ascensions recently, it's probably so they don't have to make actual summer alts of them in the future plus fanservice
>>4316544Probably more fanservice. She might still get a swimsuit alt one day. Look at servants like Nito, Melt, and even Ishtar. All their regular outfits are more revealing than their summer swimsuits.
>>4316235>>4316236Adorable.More and more I wish Protea Alter wasn't just a Costume...I'm also reminded of how Gudako would rayshift into a Singularity's airspace from time to time. When was the last time? Shimosa?
>>4316790
>>4316791
>>4316792
>Kazuradrop's third component is actually Ashiarai Yashiki, a giant hairy foot/raccoon monsterNo wonder Kazuradrop doesn't want to revealed it at all. What the hell was BB thinking?
>>4316573Yeah but they weren't actually swimsuits.If it's not a swimsuit it's not a swimsuit!
>>4317367As long as the 'summer ascension' doesn't actually stand out (see Proto Merlin having an entirely different pose for example or, you know, Summer Morgan) it doesn't really count. Like, sure, she has a swimsuit, but so does Nobukatsu and nobody thinks he's half a summer servant.
Is there a reason why people have been drawing Gudako being caught by Protea Alter? Also how's Kazuradrop been in this latest story?
>>4311610Which proves your bad taste for writing and nothing else.
>>4317905BB is just a vehicle for the Sakura route of CCC. And Sakura's route literally shuts down any connection to the servants Hakuno runs around with. She's literally there to cuck Nero or Tamamo snd nothing else. She isn't even the proper main villain because that goes to Kiara.
>>4317917Ironically barely anyone remembers Kiara today, and people see BB as the lovable villain to a majority of fans.
>>4317876>KP AlterIt's from the OC3 Climax. After defeating the final boss, Ritsuka begins falling to her death with no Servants available. A distressed KP Alter basically pushes herself to the run and catch her. Once caught, she goes full tsundere saying it was easy and was not worth the effort. It should be noted she was near death at this point, having tanked a Beast NP and multiple beams from Mooncell. OC3 really does alot for KP Alter, making her a distinct character from the normal KP. I almost wish she was her own 5 Star Servant. Almost.>KazuradropPredictably, she betrays BB Dubai, takes Hakuno hostage. and tries to usurp her. Turns out both saw it coming and she gets literally beheaded for that. She gets better though.
>>4317969>I almost wish she was her own 5 Star Servant. Almost.It's kinda hard to make her her own character because the whole 'being super big' gimmick kind of only works once (especially said size is part of the character identity). A different costume and appropriate voice lines is the best here, I'd say.>>4317959Wasn't Kiara on OC3, too. And she usually always gets brought up in convos about a CCC remake in regards to Extra Record.
>>4317969>I almost wish she was her own 5 Star Servant. Almost.Me, on the other hand:>>4316790>More and more I wish Protea Alter wasn't just a Costume...Very much wish she was her own Servant.>>4318009>the whole 'being super big' gimmick kind of only works onceI don't know what you mean by that.>A different costume and appropriate voice lines is the best here, I'd say.I wouldn't.Like I said a couple times before, Protea's animations don't fit Protea Alter's personality. Plus, now that we aren't restrained by having the cam all the way zoomed in anymore (or at least shouldn't, after that "Moon Rise Obsession" Boss Fight), they could make a Protea Alter Servant and have her standing up instead of curled to fit the screen.
>>4318331>I don't know what you mean by that.Everything about regular Protea already makes use of everything that a ' normal alter' that wasn't just a seasonal servant would already make use of. This isn't like Jeanne versus Jeanne Alter where, ignoring Jalter's existential circumstances, it's logical than a version of Jeanne that's pissed off and vengeful would harness the flames that burned her. Just to name an example. In comparison what does Protea Alter have that really sets her apart from regular Protea that isn't largely just cosmetic in nature? Like a special power that only she has that could serve as an NP over Airavata, King Sized?
>>4317969The KP Alter info sounds really cute. Can't say I feel the same with Kazuradrop. She never interested me much and this didn't really make me care for her. >>4318009Did you forget Bunyan exists and is also a giant servant? >>4318344With all the unnecessary amounts of Artoria copies we have in FGO I don't see why having another version of Protea is a bad thing.
>>4318465Bunyan is also a joke servant and not big 24/7. To me there's nothing setting both Protea's apart that aren't absolutely superficial in nature. Clearly, you think differently. So agree to disagree.
>>4318344Naruhodo.A fair point. But unfortunately, I won't be able to give you a proper answer until LB7 gets released in english. That said, as far as I know, Protea Alter also has Xochitonal added to her spirit origin, and that addition could possibly give her a new NP (that, and my idea of having her stand up in battle, which would never happen, should be more than enough to justify being a separate Servant).Alternatively, we could pretend to still be in early game and just pull a Artoria/Salter/Santa!Salter or Eliza/Halloween!Eliza who have the exact same NP (tho for the Artorias they nowadays are technically different, animation-wise that is).Lastly,I honestly think that the difference in their personalities, which would also influence how they fight, already is enough to justify making different Servants, personally anyways, so like you said to that other Anon, "agree to disagree" I suppose.
>>4318473I'm not that other anon but yeah I hard disagree with you here.
>>4319746Happy Halloween~ everyone.Considering that Kazuradrop's event will go on for a few more days, guess FGO won't have a Halloween event this year again, huh?Or is Kazuradrop's event the Halloween one?
>>4321079No new Eli this year kinda sucks
>>4321903I was just waiting for the cue to say this (also, you're right):Friendly reminder that we still don't have Elizabeth JAPAN despite she showing up on Mini Eli's NP.
Latest importation batch, the two on the right being the obvious thread related ones.

She's staring at me through the gap in the veil....! Am I heavy?

Gogh/Clytie is now literally and unironically a Minecraft character. I'll at least take her over Jack Black.
Forgot to complain about Asterios getting an Animation Update... I was going to question if anyone even cares about Asterios, but going by YouTube comes, I guess he's actually quite well liked? Oh well...No one can convince me that the likes of Alexander, Lu Bu, Fionn and Georgios are more popular choices than Mata Hari and many other female choices still stuck with early game animations...>>4328533Well, I like Minecraft, wasn't for my lack of time and my ever increasing backlog, I'm sure I would waste quite something on it, so that's nice. Tho her mannerism seems considerably different from her usual self, and I even thought that her Ascensions wouldn't have the more alien appearances her Foreigner self has . . . but it turns out she's a welfare, so there goes having other designs......However, her "Existence Outside the Domain" passive decreased from A to D, so Vulthoom's influence indeed decreased a lot.
>>4329216Alexander rides on Iskandar's coattails, so yeah, absolutely is more popular. And Lu Bu is well liked from Extraverse. So that's two at least answered, I hope.
>>4329491>Alexander rides on Iskandar's coattailsYeah, I figured that one, just wanted to complain anyways, as I quite dislike him (due to fanarts I accidentally saw).>And Lu Bu is well liked from ExtraverseI had no idea he showed up in the Extra games.... . . can he speak there? I can understand Herc being somewhat popular since he's one of the OGs and because of his determination to protect Illya, but did Lu Bu had anything other than being "Herc at home"?
>>4329503Nope, Lu Bu doesn't talk. Though in Extella he is shown to have coherent thoughts. He was also Rani's servant in Extra.
>>4329216Ehhhh, its fine. I mean, what female characters have stock animations left to update? Mata Hari, Nursery Rhyme... that's kinda it. Theres like 10 more men with stock animations too.And yeah there's some characters in need of an update even without the stock animations, but its a good sign they're working on ANYONE after what, 2 years without an animation update at all, now we get both the Jeannes and a 1 star? the rest will come.
>>4329646I see. Guess it's at least in part due to association then.Thank you for the insight.>>4329874I like your optimism and hope you're right.As for female Servants with the most basic of basic animations (a.k.a. "caster balls" or similar), that I remember, along with Nursery and Mata Hari, there's also Helena. But Mary (and Anne) still just swings her sword in like 2 patterns to all her animations, not to mention that we have double Servants appearing in battle together for quite some time now, and yet Mary and Anne and their summer version weren't updated to match... half of your pic related is also one that urgently needs an update, since she just boringly hits the enemies with some farm tools.So the ones with early game animations that I want to have updates are:>Nursery>Nitocris>Quetz (specially want to either change her animation to a "non-constrict"(?) one, or some other lucha move)>Xuanzang>Mary and Anne (vanilla and summer)>Serenity>Mata Hari>Salter Lancer>Helena>Mama (tho she needs the other 2 Shiten'no to be released before that so that the weapons she uses on NP can stay accurate)>Shuten>Ibaraki>DaVinci (yeah, yeah, she's dead, but still)>Ozy>Caster GilThe next ones are welfares, so getting updates will never ever happen but:>Archer Nobu>Santa Salter>Halloween ElizaTho ideally they would update everyone stuck with early game animations, except 1 that doesn't deserve to be updated, mentioned, remembered, or even exist.
>>4329938So do you hate david or orion more?And would you steal Artemis for yourself?
Gray attracting bad girls was a cute gag.
>>4331263>So do you hate david or orion more?The one I hate the most is option 3: fergus.But between david and orion, I definitely hate orion way more, but in the subject of animation updates, updating "orion" really means updating Artemis, and even if I wanted to deny Artemis of her update because of my hatred for orion, the moment they released the muscle version of him, I already lost that battle... accursed devs... I'll never not be salty over this, there are several versions of the myths where Artemis herself kills orion for a variety of reasons, and yet we had to have her being uselessly in love with him...>And would you steal Artemis for yourself?I don't self-insert.Either way, as much as I'd like to ship Artemis with Gudako, her current state is so utterly ruined that I can't even do that... even the likes of Semiramis and Bryn have traits other than being in love, they are completely sidelined, but they at least exist. Artemis on the other hand only have "being in love with orion and jealous of his unfaithfulness"... anyways... Ideally, Artemis should have been summoned like Quetz, using a human vessel, and not have orion attached to her at all, that way, maybe she could be a little more dignified, be the goddess of hunt she's supposed to be...>Hunting Festival Event, a.k.a. Artemisfest>Lots of interactions between Artemis and Atalanta (without it just being Atalanta embarrassed about how Artemis ended up being)>I could also see a serious Artemis getting along pretty well with Shishou, Ushi and some others>LB5 could have Gudako along with an enraged Artemis fighting against her fellow gods (or even conflicted over if she should really be fighting against them instead of with them)Etc, etc, sorry for the rant.
