*reaches for picture of Berserker Lancelot and strokes it lovingly until it turns into non-berserk Lancelot and then tosses it out the window*

Lancelot is, however, attached to a terrible Master.

Kyte posted:That's the entire point of HF tho. Shirou choosing to let go of those outside his monkeysphere he can't reach anyways and focus on those close to him. It's a loving horrible way for a hero/any powerful person to act and think though, and that Shirou is undoubtedly that. Kiritsugu was broken but I can't really fault people for wanting something more out of their heroes other than protecting their waifus.

I think I saw Fate GO on the English App Store. Is it the actual game or is it a dupe? Edit: never mind, totally a dupe. I was kind of hoping that I could avoid having to emulate on device. Dante Logos fucked around with this message at 09:57 on Mar 1, 2016 |

GyroNinja posted:Plus, it always rankles me how in Heaven's Feel we're supposed to root for Shirou saving Sakura because she has a sprite and a backstory, and everyone she (admittedly accidentally) kills is just a faceless NPC, and thus morally irrelevant. I kind of agree. I think it would have been a big improvement if one of the interludes individualized one of the people killed by the Shadow.

But Shirou is not and has never been a hero, nor he can meaningfully be one. His attempt at being one was a complete bust. HF was realizing his incapability and scaling back into something he can actually do. (UBW was accepting his incapability and trying anyways because it's nice to dream. Both are valid choices.) That's another of FSN's themes, how the 'selfless hero' concept doesn't actually work in real life for various reasons.

Sitting on 76/98 The movie was fine but dropping me right into all of that felt a bit sudden and I don't really know about any character who isn't Shiki, which is intentional, but all the same still just kinda there. The Haagen Daaz scenes were cute tho and the action looks fantastic.

As a general rule of thumb, any character voiced by Nakata will be the best character in the franchise

And that's 100/100 missions. Those last two fights were hilariously easy.

With bluestacks broken, I'm really feeling  about moving to a new emulator and catching up. How much work is the tower, timewise? Should I fix this tonight or can I just blitz it on the weekend?

You can blitz through it if you don't mind using about 10-15 apples. You could also get through everything passively in 7-9 days with a guide.

A bunch of missions also throw apples at you, its not like you actually lose them.

Where's the best room to farm zombies? I need to kill 100 more of the stupid things.

I think I'm mid 70's? I just need to get 50 more robots and 100 more zombies dead and then I'll be done after finishing the missions by my calculations. Can't have my phone at work so I have to work at it in the early morning before work and after work. I keep the little dagger items right? I only managed to get Shiki to 61 before exhausting all sources of non grind XP cards.

He's altruistic to a fault etc etc. It's that his ideal of being a hero means serving a weird nature god/force and killing arabs(?)that causes him to despair and fail. The subs for the VN saying how he wanted to be a "superhero" were apparently pretty accurate because Shirous ideal are very much in line with the standard interpretation that superheros are protectors of the status Quo whose duty is ridding the world of "unacceptable" elements. So yeah the "selfless hero" concept dosen't work according to FSN weird rear end definition of it. Like I guess we should try to be more "human" because that so...hard? Huh? FSN has a pretty dumb and cynical view of heroism is what I'm saying. And that ties into people glorifying Kiritsugus . They want a better sort of hero.

Tarezax posted:Where's the best room to farm zombies? I need to kill 100 more of the stupid things. On one hand, 802 technically has the best zombie/Ap ratio (10 per mission, compared to 101's 8) and also the best drops. On the other, 101 is MUCH easier and quicker, and zombies aren't a good source of ice cream anyways- you want the dolls for that.

I always thought the problem was more in Shirou than in Shirou's ideal. It's not that being more human is better than being heroes in general. The point is that being more human is better for Shirou
