"remake the game system" may be the vaguest phrase of the y—wait, four days too early for this joke, gently caress

Your gacha-bragging struck a nerve and accidentally set off my self-defense instincts. Sorry about that.
Remember too that Nasu has claimed to be done with things before and then released a shitload of new content for them down the line. See "CCC is my last entry in the Fate universe", etc. etc.

'rework the game system' would probably better be phrased as 'rework the game's structure'

which id interpret as 'more frequent events' or 'individual chapters with no real plot relation to each other sort of like EoR' or whatever

One of us is misunderstanding her skill because I'm pretty sure her first skill doesn't reduce her total damage at all even at level 1. Her damage per hit is halved but her hit count is doubled, and damage per hit only matters for overkill purposes. The overall damage stays the same and then she gets a +0-30% attack bonus on top that doesn't affect her NP. It also doesn't affect her critical damage any more than regular +attack bonuses would. It's like having "2x NP gain, 2x star generation", although higher hitcounts don't map exactly 1:1 like that.

e: Also take note that '2x NP gain' is not the same as '+100% NP gain'.

You're right. It's double hits, half damage with a damage bonus. Maybe I should have just said that. I was trying to describe what it does without getting into the mechanics as a sort of quick overview for anyone who hasn't used her. Just overall damage gain with some interesting extra benefits from having 2x more hits.

What you say about crit damage makes sense. The crit modifier is only applied once and distributed through all the hits of an attack. For some reason I got it in my head that "double hits, double the number of times the crit modifier is applied." Still, my impression of her was that she had very comparable damage to Jalter. I don't see the comparison being made by anyone else, so I will definitely concede that point if anyone has anything contrary to say about that.

I thought about it for a bit, and I have now come to terms with F/GO basically ending at Part 2 with the main story. My resolve to spend money on this game hasn't Wavered, I will continue to do so, so long as it gives me some material happiness to do so, as with any other video game.

So we've had 'image songs' for a while. But apparently 'image wines' are a thing?



I feel like the Sakura wine should have been a tequila. With a worm in it.

It's worth also pointing out that Musashi has a gorilla deck, so while she can get a huge amount of mileage out of that first skill she's also very dependent on it. And her having a 6 turn CD when maxed on it is not the worst but also far from being ideal.

I remember the good old days when you were SOL if you missed the event pages, so you needed to grind up blackbeard and do his interlude if you wanted to ascend vlad at all

Ofc he was my first ssr :shepface:

Remember Gears? Remember how the launch gifts, the Extella Mystic Code event, and Nerofest 1 were our only options? Hope you didn’t roll Hans, Emiya, or Nero!

On the positive side, if I do get Vlad, he's on a S growth curve so 5 pages will get him most of his stats.

How many story nodes are left after this raid?
a) you basically go punch Solomon right away
b) some nodes, roughly prologue length
c) there's a full singularity behind the raid wall

There are three more boss fights to the finish (thankfully none are Raid Style), with a hefty chunk of story to go through, so be sure you have time to sit down and absorb all the feels.
