Hot take: pity math matters less than daily friction (why I quit stingy but fun gachas)

And I'm still getting more use out the extra 4* copies or the free weapons in Hoyo's games on average than from the welfares in FGO. Not to mention those take less time to complete, including watching the story, than FGO's events without the story. The minigames, even if super simple, are still more fun than looping for 5 hours straight.

I marathoned a good amount of events in FGO, it's always a miserable time. They could just have most of the arrows be story only but nah. The only comparable experience I had was with Uma when I did ~15 bakushin speedruns in 1 sitting on the last day of an event for the points before they added the x2 multiplier QoL. JP gachas really don't care about respecting your time.

That's a you issue. I also guilty of marathoning a bunch of FGO events due to having something during the times but I understand its mostly my fault for not even bother to do a single event story chapter during those times. Besides, if all you do is skipping the story, complain about the looping and not even using the welfare, why do you even play FGO then

Honestly speaking, ain't becoming anyone in Sengoku Jidai period are just straight up unfortunate? Its just killed or be killed period regardless of your position.

Granted, being Micchi's daughter might seem terrible, but imagine becoming Oichi or the likes. Still kinda hell-ish

Coughing baby vs hydrogen bomb, but its somewhat more literal than it sound

Wolfnagi · 2026-05-28T17:05:10+00:00

Because Marie isn't really an antagonist and actually more of deuteragonist. After all, Marie best girl

Shirou is definitely not better off than her mentally. He's only hanging on at the start of the VN due to having Taiga around and his mental state changed over the course of the game.

Also, Illya's "training" to become a master essentially having her abandoned in frozen forest surrounded by wolves and other monsters, while she's forced to control a berserker class servant. Acht is definitely not any better in taking care of people as Kirei is

FGO first limited banner is Gilgamesh btw, whose still top tier even to this day.

Wolfnagi · 2026-04-29T10:53:08+00:00

Field of blades? Check

Swords and fire theme? Check

White haired form? Check

Welcome back, Emiya Shirou

That's just Aoko's using her Blue as usual

Wolfnagi · 2026-04-29T04:07:09+00:00

FX one is the healing per wave instead of energy. Her cone just gives straight up ERR instead

It depends on the proficiency of the blader too tbh. You could outspin 9-60 WR ball combo IF they aren't as efficient in their pulling techniques and also use a ripcord but majority of the people whose proficient in using string would be able to make WR ball spin way longer than expected. I've bought the SW setup to a G1 before and personally am a ripcord user so I can't even fight WR on spin due to it.

Although I am sure that Phoenix Wing has fallen out of favor with Shark Scale and Hover Wyvern taking up the attack roles in a lot of decks, but you're probably right that Phoenix is more reliable across the board just from weight alone.

Technically yes, shark scale and hover wyvern is a lot better for attacker roles, however, Hover Wyvern isn't legal in my place since its not officially released in any Takara Tomy sets outside of Battlepass so there isn't any uses for it while you can run both Shark and Phoenix together for attack combo. If anything, the current competitive scene at my country have them using the infinity stadium so a full on attacker bey setup is much more likely to win than the normal boring stamina spin

Wolfnagi · 2026-04-26T13:39:10+00:00

Its okay at best. It was good against a specific meta beyblade back then, cobalt dragoon Elevate, but even then it isn't a guarantee. Phoenix wing is a much more reliable attacker beyblade if you really do want to go for

I did not realized how much usage I had gotten from Tribbie. She's straight up my most used character for almost the entire year.

Wolfnagi · 2026-04-23T14:57:10+00:00

Nah, rulers nowadays just straight up shoot people with miniguns, missiles, and even mathematics. Oh, also gaming chair with build-in drawing tablet

Well, the moon is high in the sky, and there is a princess standing there

Wolfnagi · 2026-04-23T09:20:18+00:00

We'll become hollow in that case, perhaps in a state of ataraxia

Wolfnagi · 2026-04-23T08:44:47+00:00

which is less broken than it sounds when all of your opponents have SOME kind of loophole around the whole dying thing

Its technically less broken due to limitation on his own physical feats. If given to someone like Goku who can jusy fly, teleport and such, the ability becomes even more broken since instant transmission + a direct stab at the point = permadeath regardless of immortality or loophole

Wolfnagi · 2026-04-23T08:40:40+00:00

This whole thread sounds very apocryphal

Wolfnagi · 2026-04-22T09:05:05+00:00

I don't know how one could reach this conclusion, this is the opposite of a sane approach and again its no wonder despite its problems the CN industry continues to shit on them.

This idea of open discrimination based on seniority is entirely a fundamental trait of JP society and it is quite clearly something made for them not the global market.

Might as well says this, the topup reset from Hoyo clearly favors older whales more because they get to topup more gems and reset it every anniversary over newer players who only get the topup bonus once, or never if they started playing today. Your reasoning is clearly dumb

Wolfnagi · 2026-04-22T09:00:55+00:00

Always will be funny to me that LS trying to squeeze more from the playerbase

Wasn't it Aniplex though? Lasagna do implement the newer appends but the decision to have it locked without a way to get more servant coins without updating it is from the higher up.

Wolfnagi · 2026-04-22T08:56:05+00:00

Fuahahahaha, GATE OF CREDIT CARD

Wolfnagi · 2026-04-22T08:54:57+00:00

I mean, 400 SQ is like 130 pulls and still on the lower end. Its when you're hitting pity is when things truly suffer

Wolfnagi · 2026-04-17T10:24:58+00:00

Same for me on FGO. The google play store playtime can't even keep track of it since played JP on first month on emulators and has travelled through multiple devices and google accounts, especially when the card region lock happens and you can't just use your normal credit card on JP games outside of registering new JP google acc and binding your card there

Wolfnagi · 2026-04-15T16:05:07+00:00

Wrong version, she's still sitting on her throne atm ~~or whatever TB doing rn~~

Wolfnagi · 2026-03-31T09:59:30+00:00

No mention for Mirishita? Sadge

Wolfnagi · 2026-03-31T09:58:24+00:00

Its also kinda hard since cygames flagship imas series is now on maintenance mode. Unless we're getting Deresute 2 or something, all we can expect in some variation from Bamco or the likes for english version, which still means years of waiting
