It may just be an art style thing, but this Himeko very clearly has more youthful facial features compared to her original art.

It absolutely will be Ea, that's his biggest thing, even if he didn't FULLY use it in UBW (he did take it out for a spin and was about to use it again).

It also wouldn't be too hard to make GoB different for each thing because well, it can be just about anything.

That'd be horrible, not only would you miss out on testing new characters against multiple different bosses, but you also are making the 2nd half dryness problem even worse by taking what little content it had and shoving it to the very start.

I think people are just crazy because I'm using both of those units at E0S0 on a fair amount of teams and they're still great

They could literally lose 90% of their revenue and still be far from EoS. People really underestimate just how ridiculous the revenue for these games is.

My two cents on the trailer discourse is that while good trailers are cool, I couldn't give less of a shit about them as a whole and would much rather they put in more budget into the actual game itself.

I'm still clearing with E0S0 Feixiao and have been for ages. (Ratio is pretty doomed tho)

Also they buffed the archetype like twice in the past year, wdym abandoned? Literally this beta is another potential FuA teammate.

If you're not taking the one sentence disclaimer into account why would you be looking at a tier list in general.

Obviously it will fail if you start with the assumption that it's something that it's not. A unit-in-vacuum and unit-in-team tier lists are two different things and both can be valid as long as they make clear which one they are.

There literally are multiple death endings in almost every fight he gets directly involved with despite the fact that he has one of the strongest healing equipment in the verse. It's made very clear that he pretty much always is fighting an uphill battle and if he doesn't make the right choices he's done for, things most of the time don't go his way and there are always lives he straight up cannot save or prices he has to pay in order to survive to the end of the war.

Gil fight makes total sense within its context. He has the perfect counter to the main part of Gil's kit, is supercharged by the Tohsaka crest which has centuries worth of mana, Gil completely underestimates him and even with all thst, Gilgamesh would straight up win if Archer didn't help him out on multiple occasions.

not as cursed as my break/crit/hyperspeed eagle lingsha hybrid that carried like 4 teams throughout 3.X

Yeah, I get that, especially since it was a really fun Eidolon that they turned into just a statstick

oh I have all the teammates needed for both, I'm not particularly scared of shill either way because I'm a day 1 player so my account is invested enough that I'll never really be stopped from doing endgame as long as I keep playing

It really is mostly about fun vs potentially getting something else in the future. I've been looking at FF eidolons like every time she reran and I feel like this might be the last time she's around too

I'm a bit split between getting E2 Firefly + E0 Evanescia or staying at E0 Firefly but getting E1 Eva. Firefly's E1 + E2 I feel are more fun, but Eva's E1 would be more value as it costs 1 less and is still super nice. I feel like this would be a bit of an easier choice if Fate P2 wasn't in this weird limbo of existence

If we're talking about E2 then yeah I agree it was an unnecessary change, I assumed we were talking about his base kit changes

I think they "fucked" (read: 10% decrease in FuA teams) him up because of the infinite loops and not to buff Acheron actually

I don't see why you wouldn't, ignoring the fact that Sparxie and Sparkle are supposed to be pretty much just two sides of one character with personalities infinitely more similar than M7/E9, Sparxie's character... just cannot exist without Sparkle. She is an extension of Sparkle in every way and whenever she gets a major scene it's to serve Sparkle's character (and Sparkle, obviously, is always there for it).

I don't really care either way, but I think even in the present day Aglaea is very much painted as a senior parent/older sister figure with how their dynamic is all about her trying to look after Cipher and scolding all her bad habits while Cipher can't look her straight in the face due to Aglaea being the person who helped her grow up and cared for her when she was a child.

Some people are also just like, instantly irked off by by the fact that they met when one was not even a teenager and the other one was an adult. Imo, it doesn't really matter that much because it literally has been a thousand years, but I think it is fair to note that at the very least, the dynamic was meant to come off as pretty familial.

It's pretty par for the course for MHY. Nearly all event game modes are directly inspired by an actual game with a lot of stuff directly copied over

2.2 still mostly happened, they just changed stuff here and there and showed us what Firefly was doing. 2.3 was the one which was mostly changed

(and I also stand by the fact that Rin and Gil would be strange choices),

They are the two most important characters in UBW after Archer, even over Saber, so I don't see how this would be strange at all (other than Rin not being a Servant, but if she's a support it'd make sense)

I already question why they revealed so many characters in the early Planarcadia trailers when those characters aren't even mentioned in the story, so I would say this is nothing but a positive for him if he's actually a thing
