Why does Gilgamesh run away in Fate route? He is wearing his armor here, unlike UBW.
>>746086283He needs to wait until the showdown in the Ryuudouu temple because the entire reason he wants the grail is to incarnate Saber as a flesh and blood person.
>>746088915>>746086283I mean, he can't fight them until the ritual is ready to go at a moment's notice. I don't remember if anyone else but Saber and Gilgamesh is alive at this point, but Illya is probably in the process of becoming the grail during the bridge argument scene rather than having become the grail already.
>dominates your meta
>>746086283Shirou had something that could hurt him. Worse, it's something even he can't get through
>>746088915>incarnate Saber as a flesh and blood personI wonder how this would even work since she's not actually dead. In Sunny Day you can just wave it away as Rin delaying her return to her own time, but this is a bit more dicey. Almost paradoxical.
>>746090365It happens in Heaven's Feel.She no longer needs to maintain her existence in the present
>>746090365It's a thing one would want to do with the wish granting grail exactly because it's paradoxical and logically nonsense.
>>746086283Because he was made to job
fate is the gayest series ever
How is it they still haven't covered the third grail war? Y'know, the one where it actually gets corrupted and causes all the problems?
>>746094170This isn't Star Wars or the MCU, we don't need an entire trilogy dedicated to explaining where every single important thing in the setting came from.
wtf did i just play
>>746094170Because it was a short disaster.>>746094286And thisEnough Fateslop exists
>>746086283>Loses literally every fight he's ever been in>somehow has the reputation of being an ultimate badass
>>746094804don't underestimate power level fanboysthey're the most delusional retards on the internet and probably think vegeta isn't a jobber
>>746094804It's a well known fact that he doesn't take fights seriously and doesn't use some of the weapons he has in his gates.
>>746094804>>746095339He only loses in the major endings, there's loads of bad/dead ends where Shirou and/or Saber just fucking die.
Fate route realizes he dies in all the other routes so he knows "Im so fucked if I stick around."
>>746095454and it's mostly to illya, not gil
>>746095508Granted, but that's because there's a fuckload of frontloaded choices in the Fate route that can lead to getting destroyed by Ilya/Heracles since they're the first major antagonists, whereas Gil only shows up in the backend of Fate and UBW and gets chumped in HF (admittedly embarrassing).
>>746095852gils only kills against shirou are where shirou is a retard and gives up
>>746086283GARUGAMESH
>>746095950Nah, there's more than that, though I'll admit I don't remember them because it's been too long. I do remember the one where you choose not to extract Avalon and instead just try to use reinforcement on Saber's body, pretty sure that's also a win for Gil.
Indian here, why does my god Rama look like a cute gril and has a sword instead of Bow and arrows?
>>746086283Why the fuck do they call him a knight? Why the fuck does he wear platemail? Gilgamesh is from like 2700 BC middle east. Like three millennia before knights and platemail. Meanwhile we're only 700 years beyond it. Like it would be more accurate to have King Arthur driving a car than to have Gilgamesh wear plate armor. God I hate Japan.
>>746096260>platemailshut your bitch ass up
>>746095454>>746095508Honestly, any ending where Ilya/Berserker or Caster kill Shirou is pretty much a defacto total victory for Gil, even if it isn't shown, considering he wipes the floor with both in every scenario in which they come into contact. Zouken and/or Sakura as the dark horses of the war are the only real exceptions.
>>746096260Servants are strongly influenced by the way the era they are summoned into perceives them and heroes in general.
>>746096439Nobody perceived Gilgamesh as a gold knight before this crap came out
>>746096260Of all the characters you could complain about Gil is one of the few exceptions where there's an actual explanation, i.e. Gate of Babylon means he gets access to shit from every era.More historically appropriate Fate character designs are neat though.
>>746096218NopeShirou dies against Kirei>>746096386ah yesgood old gilso powerful he needs other people to make his kills for him
>>746096528lorica seiba is my favorite
>>746096516>The Tower of Druaga is a 1984 action role-playing maze video game developed and published by Namco for arcades. Controlling the golden-armored knight Gilgamesh, the player is tasked with scaling 60 floors of the titular tower in an effort to rescue the maiden Ki from Druaga, a demon with eight arms and four legs
>>746096546>Shirou dies against KireiRight, but Saber also loses to Gil in that scenario.>so powerful he needs other people to make his kills for himHe no diffs Caster in Fate and Heracles in UBW, no Avalon in Fate gives Gil a clear win and no Shirou in UBW means Gil doesn't have a reason to goof off like a retard and let UBW beat him.
>>746096516He's the archetypical hero and is more divine than he is human. I think he's also gold because we associate the ancient near east, especially the sumerians with a gold and brown color palette a lot...sand, statues bleached almost white by the desert winds and thousands of years, the ruins of Ur and Uruk, their tablets and art, their flashy golden jewelry, etc.
>>746096605
>>746096620>a Gilgamesh Armored Trooper (AT) pilot who stumbles upon a major secret at the war's end Damn I guess Gilgamesh is a robot now, thanks retard faggot logic man
>>746096914
A knight would slice a samurai in half
>>746096931>>>>Nobody perceived Gilgamesh as a gold knight before this crap came out
did a new game in this shit franchise just come out why are there 16 threads a day about this garbo
>>746096797COOOOOOOOOOPEcope>>746096914>>746096986VIRTUS
>>746097003>ギルガメス>ギルガメッシュ
>>746096986>>746097096>COOOOOOOOOOPEWait, was I actually right? I genuinely couldn't remember if Gil beats Saber or not, I just assumed that's what happened without Avalon.
>>746097346Also I swear there's another one these pics, it had Saber on horseback in 5th/6th century armor and you could see her breath. No idea why I remember that detail but I can't find it for the life of me.
Welsh butt.
>>746095508Sakura actually kills Shirou more than anyone else, but Illya/berserker is #2.>>746094804Gil isn’t actually that big of a jobber. Herc is bigger, Saber is about the same level.
>>746097498
would Saber have to be a Rider to get her driving license?
>>746097551No she has basic Riding by default.
>>746097468Here's more 15th/16th century style. Kind of has an "Excalibur" the 1981 movie feel.
Gil can see the future. He isn't "allowed" to win, basically.
>>746097629>>746097551She literally rides a motorbike in F/Z because of her riding skill.
>>746096260Because he’s in the one of the 3 knight classes. This is like complaining judge Holden is being called a judge. Why are you even having a meltie
>>746097682That's all I've got for Saber, here's some extras.
>>746097743I really like Rider in this one. Not to say her canon look is bad, but this is a substantial improvement.
>>746097808ugggghhhh rider bare pussy just hanging out in the wind
>>746097654Yeah Gilgamesh canonically has Epitaph from Jojo Part 5. He just ignores it because he finds it boring and doesn't like being told that he's going to lose.
>>746097871Just watch Case Files and stfu.
>>746097654>isn’t allowed to winHe intentionally ignores his own precognition because he thinks he can’t lose.Just like the time Berserker broke from the chains and almost beheaded him. Gil was shitting on his own pants when that happened.
Actually like how some of the Stay Night desgins modernize thier appearance which also obfuscates thier identities. That was supposed to be a factor but I feel they abandoned it pretty quickly.
>>746098410The BDSM gear makes little sense for Rider, though, in the Fate timeline because she was never raped by Poseidon according to Nasu.
>>746098579Meant more like how her long hair is a way to invoke snakes. I also I wish they were thematically consistent, but I like the idea of it.
>>746098579Rider never really made sense. So her NP is Bellerophon and riding Pegasus which only existed once she literally stopped existing. There was no way for her to ride Pegasus in her own life, which is why Nasu backtracked in HA and made Pegasus just a thing that existed on the island with the gorgon sisters and something they always took care of. But then this makes the original NP summon also make no sense because it involves her slashing her neck which now has nothing to do with Pegasus because according to the games internal logic her death had nothing to with Pegasus. To be honest even extremely flimsy meme servants in the mobile game typically have a better justification for their class than rider does in the OG VN. It’s so bad. It’s kind of like if JFK was an archer because “he was shot in the head”.
>>746099239Speaking of presidents, I never liked the idea that none of the American presidents were good enough to be the definitive American servant, with Edison getting all the power they would have had as servants. Washington is not only the ideal president, but the ideal American.
>>746099239>Jane FK>Super sniper startled by gunshots>still hates commiesHonestly would be pretty cute
>>746096240He looks like his wife Sita because uhhh I forgot Also I think it was handwaved that he's weaker than usual because he's using a sword, but it's been like 10 years since his story so not sure
>>746099754>le muh presidentGet fucked americuck, you have no history.
>>746086283Who cares? Fate is fucking trash.
>>746099815America is almost certainly than the country you’re living in
>>746100113Most certainly.
>>746099815I’ve never seen this from anyone living in a real country it’s always meme slavic or island countries that are younger than shit like Star Wars
>>746094170Because FGO stole the show
>>746091335Yeah sure if you're an actual servant copied from the throne of heroes, but King Arthur being abducted from her own timeline to be someone's cum dump in the present would surely trigger the counter force.
What's with nasu and britishwank?bunch of fairies forgot to deliver excalibur and an alien that defeated the entire greek pantheon destroyed the world.
>>746100371Artoria being summoned doesn’t threaten the human order
>>746096386>Honestly, any ending where Ilya/Berserker or Caster kill Shirou is pretty much a defacto total victory for Gil, even if it isn't shown, considering he wipes the floor with both in every scenario in which they come into contacActually if you want to zoom out even further these probably end up with Gil dying to Emiya. >Gil wins grail war >corrupted grail shits out Angra to ass fuck the planet This is the exact type of hellscape that would trigger the counter force, and Emiya specifically would probably be the ideal janitor because he counters gil
>>746100572>alien that defeated the entire greek pantheon destroyed the world.Did Nasu smoke when he came up with this? Mostly everything seems somewhat rooted in real myths, but then suddenly the fever dream lore of greek gods are ayy lmao space ships and even bigger bunnygirl ayy lmao with massive milkers destroyed the whole world (also her corpse becomes Attila the Hun)
>>746100627But she already made a contract with the planet. The planet wouldn't approve of it being reneged, much less by a third party like Gil.
>>746101048there's also morgan who was depicted as irredeemable evil woman only for the version that appeared in the story became a dindu nuffin.
>>746101048>>746101260yupnasu pussed out of it all
>>746100832I doubt the 5th HGW grail even has the capacity to trigger the Counterforce, not the lesser grail anyway.
