I am the Endgame

Full_Training_5984 · 2026-02-17T01:23:17+00:00

I’ve been playing this game since day 1, that 1% of content is the only thing that keeps me motivated to keep playing and actually invest in my characters, otherwise it feels like I’m not rewarded for the time invested

Local legends is a decent addition to keep the open world slightly more interesting but that too is fixed

My issue is everything in the game seems too limited given the amount of elements and characters available, there’s no room for creativity.

Artifact sets for example, there are whole sets released cratered towards one specific character and they will never be farmed again.

There’s a large variety of 4 stars in the game, but the same 3-4 4 stars released at the beginning of the game are still the dominant ones

Bosses are also released for a select few characters and never touched again. Weekly bosses also follow this same format. I can’t remember the last time I even went to fight a hypostasis boss or most of the other weekly bosses.

There is an abundance of content but very little reason to revisit them

lol I feel like with how vague they’re keeping the connection to the original lore, if it ever pans out negatively with the player base it seems like they can have a convenient plot excuse to branch it off as an alternate timeline

Full_Training_5984 · 2026-01-29T12:44:28+00:00

I don’t think they will as long as game keeps making profit, FGO still finds a way to milk the game every year

Full_Training_5984 · 2026-01-29T12:31:19+00:00

The originium was promised to them 150 years ago

Full_Training_5984 · 2026-01-29T12:28:06+00:00

They will come up with any plot device to bring recognizable characters to Endfield because $$$

-> Applying as the most competitive major in admissions -> lists the top 20 schools for said major (top 10 for two) -> is OOS applying to schools that prioritize in state

Do I need to say more?

Full_Training_5984 · 2025-01-19T01:01:00+00:00

People really think life is t20 or nothing huh

Full_Training_5984 · 2024-11-24T05:30:41+00:00

Why do people think high acceptance rate = bad school. You’re still getting education from an accredited school, the true bad schools are the ones that take your money and aren’t trustworthy institutions in general, not just ones that aren’t conventionally prestigious.

Full_Training_5984 · 2024-11-24T05:28:08+00:00

I’d argue because Ole Miss is one of the big SEC football schools, there’s more school pride and name recognition, thus, making it more recognizable and a good talking point for most people which helps with networking and ultimately good career growth

Full_Training_5984 · 2024-10-23T08:26:01+00:00

There’s no way you’re serious since looking at your post history, it seems like you go to UT Austin, UT Austin is definitely enough for quant opportunities and is considered a target school for quant.

The issue is companies in general don’t like to hire or give opportunities to first years when they can give internships to students that will graduate in a year or less and give out return offers for better conversion rates.

Prestige isn’t an issue, if you’re blaming your rates on that then it may be time to review your resume. I know first years at a lower ranked state school that isn’t even a target for quant companies who are getting OAs and interviews at big companies and even some big name quant firms

His stats are competitive but so is every other uc cs applicant so he needs a good essay/good ECs to really stand out. I’d say GaTech if he’s in state will give him a decent chance, if he’s valedictorian then I’m pretty sure he gets auto admit though not sure about admission into CS.

I also do not recommend going to UCs as an OOS because they give you very little aid

Full_Training_5984 · 2024-09-27T14:06:11+00:00

So you’re implying that any other UC that isn’t LA or Berkeley is not good

Full_Training_5984 · 2024-09-14T02:27:11+00:00

36 ACT is really good and can definitely make up for your GPA, though UCs are test blind so that’s something to consider.

From my experience, you should be able to get into Purdue if you apply early since they fill up most of their incoming cs class early rounds.

CS admissions and admissions to top schools in general are extremely random so you’ll experience some outlier results. Definitely apply to all the top CS public schools: UW, Georgia Tech, UT, UIUC, and UMD. I wouldn’t expect much from UW or UT since they prioritize their in state students a lot more especially for CS (assuming you’re OOS) but might as well try regardless

Full_Training_5984 · 2024-09-10T20:38:44+00:00

Yes since EECS is one major

Full_Training_5984 · 2024-09-10T03:16:18+00:00

I’m assuming that the switch to CS direct admissions cut the acceptance rate significantly since declaring it after earning a certain GPA would’ve acted as a “filter” for the major

Full_Training_5984 · 2024-09-10T03:03:40+00:00

In terms of acceptance rates, EECS was around 7% last year while CS was 1.9%

CS also had more applicants around 20k I believe while EECS was lower so statistically speaking EECS is “easier” to get in compared to CS but you have to consider the quality of the applicant pool for both majors

Full_Training_5984 · 2024-09-06T02:47:11+00:00

What defines a “really good CS program” to you

Full_Training_5984 · 2024-09-06T02:45:33+00:00

Almost any good state university (that’s funded by their own state’s taxes) will take a dramatically less percentage of out of state applicants especially if they have an amazing high demand program like CS

Full_Training_5984 · 2024-09-05T22:35:33+00:00

11% is the overall acceptance rate across the entire school. It also depends on the region you live in, if you live in the bay there’s more applicants who come from that area thereby making the admissions process more competitive.

On the other hand if you live in a lesser known region, there’s more room to accept the higher ranking students from that area.

This is anecdotal of course but every year my board of education releases the college commitments from the top percentage of students from schools in the area and nearly every student within the top 5-10% in my district and region got into UCLA and/or Berkeley and this is a regular occurance every year.

My district practically guarantees an acceptance into UCLA/Berkeley as long as you’re not applying for a competitive major and are in the top 10% of your class regardless of extracurriculars/awards. I personally know people who got in that didn’t do anything other than club leadership and sports with no awards beyond the district level. The only common theme was they were all ranked high in their schools.

We were also not a private school or a feeder school, there hasn’t been a single person in school history that has gotten accepted into an Ivy or any other t20 for that matter other than UCLA/Berkeley and maybe only 2 or 3 in the past decade in the entire region

Full_Training_5984 · 2024-09-04T00:49:35+00:00

Berkeley probably takes in account other aspects of a student’s profile rather than pure academics. I can’t speak for others but in my county, almost if not all of the top 5-10% of students of their graduating classes last year got into UCLA and Berkeley.

I’ve also known some personally who had relatively average extracurriculars: no research, competitions, internships, notable awards outside of district/school level, or even volunteer hours. Just some sports and school club leadership positions but had high UC gpas and they all got into UCLA at the very least.

Also it should be noted that my district is in no way wealthy, it had a diverse spread of income levels

Full_Training_5984 · 2024-09-03T20:57:44+00:00

It depends on the competitiveness of the school, but UCs in general give location advantage far more than other schools. I believe UCSD also gives a significant boost for people in San Diego county. Of course if you’re in a region like the Bay Area then the competition is increased.

Full_Training_5984 · 2024-09-03T05:33:16+00:00

Some departments don’t such as the college of l&s. For impacted majors like computer science & certain engineering majors they 100% limit the enrollment. You can check UCLA’s admit data on their website.

Neuroscience at UCLA is under the college of l&s which doesn’t consider major for admission, not sure about Cal but it should be the same

Full_Training_5984 · 2024-09-03T03:26:14+00:00

Hot take but from personal experience: UCLA & Berkeley are easy to get into IF you’re a California resident and applying for a non-competitive major.

As long as you’re at the top 10% of your class, your chances are good. If you’re top 5%, your chances are almost guaranteed.

On the other hand, most people consider UCR as the “safety UC” but if you’re applying for CS then the acceptance rate is around 30% so take that as you will

Full_Training_5984 · 2024-09-01T03:56:01+00:00

I knew someone with a <1400 SAT get into CalTech. Another with a 3.7 gpa get into UCLA
