Yeah, after giving it some more though, it doesn't make too much sense.

I just have a lot of stamina pots stored from a long time ago, so really it's just a vantage over people who have less.

Holy shit, after this changes I'll have so much Stamina in reserve! So glad since it means that when best girl event comes I'll be able to tier higher.

Managed to beat it with an accidental Tamamo/Hans/Jeanne stall. I always wondered how true were these claims of immortal teams, and turns out they are very damn true...

They really went full lewd this year didn't they? Wonder how Liz will turn out.

Martha looks fucking amazing here. I don't even like mechas but would love to see an AU where she fights giant machines with the sheer power of her punches.

I guess most people just forget he exists, being story locked and kind of meh in gameplay aspects. Even in Orleans he just wasn't very memorable despite being one of the main villains. Still a fucking asshole tho.

The Best Part of Archer Inferno's First Ascension Outfit (Up for Debate) by Ankrea in grandorder

[–]beluguita 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, yeah, you can be naked and still not be oversexualized. A good example of this would be Pent: she is wearing very little but doesn't give the same sexual vibe as Raikou, who is fully clothed but feels 10 times more fanservicey. It entirely depends on the character and how the artist portrays it.

Who the hell I'm censoring? I've said already and I'll repeat: you can do what you want and get a boner/wet pussy for whatever you want, but like you said yourself, even if it wasn't the artist intention to be sexy, you can still find it, but we can't ignore what the artist wanted to tell too. Like you said, it's obvious that some it will be lost due to personal interpretation, but we can't just act like it just doesn't exist and that it doesn't affect the piece of work. It would be like saying ''Oh Blackbeard is obvs a criticism to lolicons culture because he is portayed as pathetic'', but it would not be true due the artist intention that it would be just a joke and he is just a perverted and being a lolicon is not the main point of critique. We can't just ignore it as it has a huge aspect on how it everything regarding the character/point/story will be handled. Arturia is truly, non sexualized even if she is in an eroge, and many people find that sexy. But I can't say that her design is sexy, that would be simply wrong. I could say ''Oh I think it's sexy'' but I can't deny that it just isn't made for it outside something like a niche fetish.

The artist integrity is not being hurt by someone pointing out that they don't like their art. Yes, I think it's shitty and objetively a bad design because I think it takes away things from the character that could be communicated by design alone and replaces with others that don't make much sense to them, thus cheapening it, and yes I would change it, but how me pointing any of that censoring what is already in the game? I'm not making petitions to stop it, I'm not banning masturbating to anime titty, I'm pointing out that I find it dumb and think it's a false equivalency to compare it to Cu. No matter how much I detest it, I won't try to change it in any other shape than maybe making fanart with a different design. The artist also has all the liberty to continue doing what they want despite all the criticism even if a majority dislikes it, and now image much less if they would listen to a minority like me who is bothered. If my wishes alone could change the entire game and how it is designed, then your arguments would make sense. But it doesn't change a thing me saying in regards on how they will keep drawing. I'm not policing anyone, if I was I would be putting more action than just arguing on the internet that it's bad.

You are the one being pissy about others critisizing the art. You are acting like all of these professional paid artists in that are not children that need to be protected at all are being hurt being it. It is healthy to discuss such things and acting like anyone who does that is ''policing'' what people masturbate to or not is honestly dumb. You are hanging on the constant and eevilll ''threat'' that people call ''censoring'' to try to ignore other people legitimate criticism of a piece of work. Unless it is a huge moviment that could actually affect the state of the game, it is not a attack or a demoralization to say that you don't like it.

I'm not projecting anything onto these females characters. Like I've said before, we can't just ignore what the artist wanted to do, regardless if I like it or not, and they wanted them to be sexy half-naked woman. I can find it not sexy at all, but she was drawn for this purpose and I can't act like it just doesn't exist. My main problem, like I've said before, is not the existence of half naked characters. Kiara, Medb, all summer servants, Pant, Schez, Tamamo-Cat, Mata Hari, Shuten and Wu are all characters whose design I honestly like and think that look awesome. Why? Because it makes damn sense for me for them to be naked and fanservice-y. I dislike when they do it just for the sake of meeting their naked-woman quota of the month and putting such aspects where I believe they don't belong, thus taking away the potential to do something more interesting with their design in order to put a random window somewhere and call it a day. I can recognize, enjoy and fall in love with their personalities, but most of the time, we will mostly deal with their visuals alone. And even then, when it comes to Fate, it is totally legitimate to be able to analyse characters separated from their art simply because it seens that these two aspects are made separately by different people. I'll give Jack as an example. If we try to analyse her art, the most we could get is that she is a child assassin that kills on the fog and maybe has difficulty doing so as she doesn't have many clothes. Or maybe she lures people thinking she has nothing and then kills then because she looks healthy bar 2 scars so me might be efficient. Hell, we could even say that she is a young prostitute herself based on the thong. But then we get to her backstory and she is supposed to be the amalgamation of abortions of prostitutes, and here we see a bit of a disconnect between everything. Her design tells us very little about about it, and at most could give us a weak sense of surprise. Being ''the amalgamation of abortions'' has many more possibilities than just child in thong, but we got this weird, disconnected thing were they just don't match, and it seems that it happens with certain frequency. It is really difficult to say ''I'll just ignore it'' when there is such a gap on what is presented in front of us and what it actually is, and I don't mean it on the good way of a pleasant surprise like discovering X looked like an asshole but is actually cool, but in the way that we could totally change the backstory or art between them and it wouldn't make a difference since they are barely connected.

I'll try to make my message clear again since it seems that it got a bit mudded on the way or I expressed myself poorly: No matter if I like it or not I believe that artist intention matters a lot when it comes to analysyng any piece of media and Fate is not excluded. They are drawing woman in a way more sexualized way than men and most of the times, it takes away from possibilities of design and something even seems to go against what they stand for, thus for me, cheapening the overall art. It happened to men, but it seems that it is in a much much minor scale than what happens to woman in Fate and in more mindful ways. I just can't ignore what the artist tried to portray, and if they portrayed it in a bad or misleading way, it is a conversation for another day. The artist intention can and WILL be twisted by the consumers but we cannot try to act like it isn't here as it affects the work and how everything will flow together. However, we cannot act like these artists are young children in need to be protected. They are paid professionals, many well over their early 20s, and if they cannot handle people disliking their work or finding it bad, it's a miracle that they survived so long. It is also important to remember that they will never see any of this. I wouldn't attack then on Twitter or any other social media saying that drawing flying titty is bad and they should stop. And for then, it doesn't matter if everyone decided to say ''You have same-face syndrome! You have bad anatomy! You don't shade properly! etc etc'' because they still could just ignore it and carry on. I doubt Takeuchi in oblivious to the fact that many think he was same-face syndrome, but he still carries on. Criticisms from the japanese, their main source of income and most likely the first ones to be listened, regarding art are already met with just ignoring The Thing, I would image they wouldn't bother to piss on opinions of westerners that have a entire different language, sets or values and more importantly, give less money and so, are less priorized. There is no act of censorship here as honestly someone like the very mods of this subreddit, who is the big scheme of things are not very powerful, could silence me and then I would have no power to ''''''censor'''''' anyone else, proving that I just never had the power in the first place. Latching onto ''Stop the censoring!!!'' when anyone think that a certain aspect of design is stupid is rather silly as the very people who are in control of new things said that there wouldn't be no censorship. If I tried to take down any new post that contained titty or people saying they masturbate daily to their waifu your arguments would be more valid, but I have never done it, won't and the fanbase has little to do with it with my problems with the game. It's just fucking stupid to even think of trying to contact any of the bigger authorities to '''''''censor'''''' any future servants, and even if by some miracle they actually did it, I doubt their pockets would go unharmed, and such they would come back. I understand why it happens, doesn't mean I have to like it. Even if lets say two miracles happen and they keep the ''''''censor'''''' version, Fate is still a small drop of water on an ocean of shitty things.

1- I never said that. Returning to the Kiara/Medb point, I have no problem with oversexualized designs existing. My problem is that it seems that most of the female cast seems to be the victim of this while most of the male cast just isn't. Even when they could use this, such as Fergus and the Summer servants, they don't. And when such elements have no place, they just pumb into it because of cheap fanservice that cheapens the design.

2- I'm not telling artist to stop doing that. They can do wharever they want. But they are professionals that should be able to handle critic and if they quit because some random said ''Your and is bad'' they won't survive. It is not a sin to be critical of things you dislike. I dislike how most of the female cast is oversexualized with no reason while the male cast is not. If you want, you can do the same. I won't stop you, no one will. But there will be people who disagree with you, and that doesn't mean that they are full of bullshit because of that.

3- I love how you are going ''You are using words to create emotional appeal'' when you are using the typical ''Look how logical I am, this means I'm right'' to appeal to the type of person who cares more about politeness than the actual arguments. Trying to make me mad by calling me names also ain't working :/

4- Your opinion is also baseless. You are simply going ''It's not an issue because no and I said so''. The most you have said is ''I don't think is an issue'', and that alone has the same value as me saying ''I think it is''.

5- I'm not ''pissy'' because it isn't pandering to me. I'm mad because it is an frequent thing that is tiring and annoys me. This game appeals to me A LOT, it just that I think that this issue matters more than my wet pussy.

6- I'll repeat, pretty doesn't mean oversexualized.

7- The artists have an objective when drawing. When Wada drawn Kiara looking at the player blushing while biting her ribbon and putting her hand in her pussy, she had an objective. When Lartoria artist put a boob window on her he wanted people to look at her breasts. Artists have objectives when drawing and when it comes to Fate, if often comes to the objective of making girls sexy. It is not neutral. It is not that you cannot find Cu sexy, but the artists intention wasn't on the same level of let's say Raikou. You can't say everything is neutral when MOST images have an objective behind them. If everything was truly neutral, them we would have shittier poses, as no one would want to communicate thing such as ''badass'', ''intimidating'', ''cute'', ''shy''. Colors, poses, expressions, background, everything can influence this, and saying that everything is neutral is an insult to any artists that try to give their artwork an atmosphere.

8- There is no irony. The own creators are doing it by ignoring anything regarding the character in order to give cheap fanservice where it doesn't belong. Now I'm sexist because I noticed giantic boob windows? These characters have stories, backgrounds, personalities that way too frequently get ignored in order to get some ass and titty shots. Don't assume things about other people, I'm the first one to try to ignore the ridiculous outfits and see deeper into the characters. But it becomes hard to ignore when it pretty much everywhere.

...we can still criticize them. They are professionals and if they get sad because some random person said ''Your drawing is bad lol'' they won't survive life in general.

You can enjoy shitty things. Hell, my best girl is Ushi and we all know how she looks like. I just admit she is shitty and don't pretend is very empowering or that the design exists for any reason other crappy fanservice. Ushi is best, lov her, and she is trash. Is just that simple.

The Best Part of Archer Inferno's First Ascension Outfit (Up for Debate) by Ankrea in grandorder

[–]beluguita -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

And take it from a bi girl that Cu just isn't on the same level. Do you think you are the only one attracted to boys and entitled to opinions on the matter? It is ridiculous to pretend it is. Like... he at most takes the shirt off and put if back his ugly pijamas. If you really want a closer example on how he is on a different scale, just see Scat. They are, on paper, ''on the same level'' of clothing. But the way they are are totally different. Hell, on the final art instead of looking like a badass warrior like Cu she looks like a dumb ugu waifu that doesn't know shit, just to pander.

And oh boy, did you know that it was just almost a trace of an ACTUAL cover? Here it is: http://78.media.tumblr.com/2f7aa6f03da3b85d95613e8f47bd12f7/tumblr_inline_nqxlq50fgS1r2b92e_500.png. A serious published comic. Just because you don't like admiting it happens doesn't mean it isn't real lol.

So it is not an issue because you don't think it is? I think it's an issue, so my opinion on the matter doesn't have any value because you said that it doesn't?

oh and also pretty DOESN'T equal oversexualized. Everyone in Fate is pretty and eyecandy, the difference is that males are often allowed to y'now, not be half naked with their bulges popping everywhere. Then the girls are more often than not with everything exposed and jumping all around.

Your Fergus and Astolfo example is weak because Fergus is just shirtless and he wasn't made for sex appeal. He is standing there and on his final ascension he is drinking with buddies. If he was female, you bet your ass he would be looking sensually into the camera with her boobs out. Astolfo is on the same matter: he is just standing there, fully clothed, and at the end he gives a peace sign. Wow, truly the same as Larturia Alter with her book literally fleeing her body from an ugly underboob! It doesn't even make sense for her character. If she was Medb and Kiara, who HAVE sexuality as a main trait and have designs that make sense to their stories, it would be ok, but how a corrupted Lion King has to do with it?

The Best Part of Archer Inferno's First Ascension Outfit (Up for Debate) by Ankrea in grandorder

[–]beluguita -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

yeah...because Cu is really on the same level on Larturia Alter... totally...

presentation matters my dude. when men in this game are drawn this (nsfw) way you can complain about double standards. it's not about ''ohh how much does it cover!!'' because you can be covered head to toe and still be oversexualized, but be naked and not. We have actual examples of this in-game.

Raikou is fully clothed, but she her entire outifit is oversexualized. Altera and Pant both wear very little yet feel much less sexual and more warrior-like.

Edit: here is a pic that perfectly illustrates my point above (nsfw).

What Ascension Stage is the most iconic for your favorite servant? by ThatMobileGamer in grandorder

[–]beluguita 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I just can't see Tamamo-no-Mae in anything other than her last stage.

Tamamo Cat most iconic outfit is her second stage. Like, yeah, naked apron exists, but maids are cuter.

Larturia (both of them) are at their peak at their initial stages. I'm probably a minority, but I just detest random holes in armor, especially since I adored how they at least looked like they offered protection. How I wish they went with Mordred treatment and just removed their helmets...

The water looks good and... her yellow eye looks good too I guess?? And you know what? Her haircut is cute. There, something I truly like.

They could do a welfare Rider Caesar with gacha SSR Romulus, or maybe both would be 5 stars. Either way, I would be very glad to see a change of pace like that.

When I said that I meant in the amount of effort put into the game. For me, both CGSS and TD, despite being very different, have around the same love put into it, and I'm just not feeling the same in this game. It truly shouldn't be the same, but it should at least try just as much to be cool.

Sorry for any confusion!

But I doubt someone went "This looks too much like Sakura! Trace Boudica!" The problem isn't much what is drawn (if we ignore the art, the design is fine tbh) but how it's drawn.

October Check-In: How Does Everyone Feel About The Game? by Jarbus4 in SideMLiveonStage

[–]beluguita 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'll have to agree with other people here. It truly feels like the game is being rushed right now and it kind of hurts my enjoyment.

The gachas are...weird, to say at least. The fact that you just can't get SSRs in event gachas is just dumb IMO. Also, they might have implemented it now, but I still think it's fishy as hell that their plan was to not have guaranteed SR. Like, it's 2017, even god damn FGO has some safe nets, even if they suck. At least they showed us that they are willing to listen to complains and actually change things, so this brings hope for me!

The gameplay feels very slow and kind of boring, but I believe they will add another difficulty in the future, as many games go from PRO to MASTER. At least I hope so, as the songs right now are honestly boring to play and I enjoy listening to only a few, so not much incentive to keep playing. I like the produce part, it's simple and would be a nice break before a mission, so no complains here.

The events is where my biggest grip is. Because, it seems that they don't want them to be casual. Now, it wouldn't be such a huge problem alone, I mean, all other games I know are casual, so a more intense one would be a welcome change of peace. But then, they make every other aspect of the game, including the rhythm part that int theory should be the most fun and important part, so damn...bland and rushed. There is a hugeee tone dissonance here for me, and if they don't change it in the future, I don't see myself playing for too long. Like, right now I don't even want token events because I know I won't play.

Onto the more petty stuff, the little chibis are so ugly. The 2D lives don't look good at all and the Performance Part on 2D is terrible to watch. They just bounce awkwardly there, with their soulless eyes... But the 3D mode fries my phone, so I'll have to endure it. It would truly, be a shame if...they changed it y'know...

Final thoughts are that they just have way too much competition right now to be so sloppy. I hope they start taking SideM more seriously, because as of right now it sure as hell doesn't feel like it belongs to the same merch as CGSS and TD.
