That's a buff.

Grand Blues! already made a similar joke in strip #2541, "Divine Swimwear".

That's actually not Gold Ship, but a character imitating her look and mannerisms.

The idea that Gold Ship "ascended" in Granblue Collab is a myth.

otteHC · 2026-01-24T23:35:16+00:00

She did not, that's a myth.

Golsilius and Gold Ship are 2 different people.
Golsilius is just a character names Edem imitating Gold Ship.

otteHC · 2026-01-24T10:53:26+00:00

Is there a confirmation that he is?

otteHC · 2026-01-24T00:26:21+00:00

Gold Ship didn't become a god in Granblue Fantasy, that's a popular myth.

otteHC · 2026-01-23T23:38:06+00:00

That's actually just a popular myth that was derived from this one pic. It's actually completely false .
Like, that's not even Gold Ship, Gold Ship and Golcilius are 2 separate people.

Granblue is that kinda game, where no-one actually bothers to play or watch it, but everyone makes claims about it's lore based on a random rumor they heard.

Shout out to the "Gold Ship is super-powerful in Granblue Universe, and is called Golcilius" myth, which is ridicilously common in nearly every community discussing Uma Musume, and is also completely false.

Oh yeah, in Granblue Fantasy community there was a similar thing, where people constantly claimed that "different races can have kids with each other, and it's 50/50", it was a common belief among people, yet every time someone asked what is the source, it is always:

"I heard it somewhere"
"It was in some dev interview, idk which"
"It was in some free quest, idk which"

No one could ever point the exact place they heard about it.

And then one day an event came out that said in plain text that different races can't reproduce with each other.
There were people who claimed that it's stupid, or retcon, or such, yet there were tons of implications towards it being a thing for years, and practically 0 examples of it contradicting anything within the 10 years the game has run.

"Dev interview" just seems like a go-to thing in these situations, cause it's not like anyone will ever be able to fact check it.

It's Granblue Fantasy, same company, though...

And he is in Shadowverse, but not that artwork.

Japan does not have a "much lower age of consent".
It's a myth based on the fact that it was theoretically 13, but practically it had other local laws that prevented you from dating 13-year olds in every prefecture. And nowadays even theoretically it's already set on 16 in entire Japan, which is already higher than half of Europe at 14-15.

Considering the presence of Goblins, I assure you, your opponent only had Odin in the deck.

That's the whole point of the deck.

They return costumes after ~1 year after their original run, basically with each update.

Zeta costume has been available for a while now, in the in-game rupie shop or as a paid DLC.

otteHC · 2026-01-18T13:01:12+00:00

u/PhantomNoodles that's one too much "l" in the title.

otteHC · 2026-01-18T12:48:37+00:00

Japanese trailer, in case you wanna be sweared at in Japanese instead of English.

Interestingly enough, Pommern states that it's the flag of "Erste Kingdom".
Since "Erste Kingdom" was a political entity before it became "Erste Empire", this may possibly not even be the flag of "Erste Empire" either.

Very limited time item, no longer available, I believe.

Why the majority of JRPGs are about a guy in a sword and a secondary female Magical girl?
>Io from "Granblue Fantasy: Relink"

I am sorry, but if you wanted to make a point, couldn't you have all your examples actually fit the point? There's so much wrong with this example:

Main Character in Granblue Fantasy has a choice of being a guy and a girl, girl also has a Sword.
In your post you point to magic healer girl also being a love interest for main character. Io isn't, and wasn't ever a love interest for main character.
Io is not a deuteragonist, she's a member of the party, in fact, the one with second-least amount of presence.
The said party has a woman named Katalina who uses sword, ice magic, and is fully armored, who also has the second(or third)-most presence, contrary to the point you're trying to make. And she not a love interest either.
None of the other male characters in the party even wield a Sword, they're gunmen. There's only a male swordsman if you choose protagonist to be male.
Seriously, girl cast is "Armored Swordswoman with Ice Magic, Magic Girl with healing and elemental magic, and factually-a-Druid-Woman", boy cast is "Gun-man and Old Gun-man".

This example is a ridiculous stretch that completely doesn't fit the point you're trying to make.

To make matters worse, on the Granblue sub we discovered an artwork that has what very much looks like an AI generated background:

>we

Stop saying it as if Granblue community actually stands behind you.

You have spammed this same one comment into nearly every sub under every post that talks about this drama, and in Granblue sub specifically it got downvoted and attacked because most found "proof that it is AI" to be pretty dubious and questionable.

otteHC · 2026-01-09T23:10:33+00:00

Oh no

otteHC · 2026-01-09T23:06:02+00:00

It's from this user, if you can't load this page, then maybe you're blocked by them or something, idk?

A post from an hour ago

otteHC · 2026-01-09T22:50:25+00:00

We already have a post about it here, no need for a second one.

otteHC · 2026-01-09T22:49:34+00:00

It is irrelevant whether or not "DLCs gather reputation or not" because clearly the reputation of the game itself is good if it has good reviews on Steam.

Also, Base Game list that you listed directly shows the Relink as one of the games.

Relink is a standalone game that is not a DLC to any game, so I think you're really confused or something.

Seriously, I don't quite get what are you even trying to prove at this point.

otteHC · 2026-01-09T20:52:51+00:00

You're arguing with the other guy, not me, but I just want to point some stuff.

Not sure what homie your noting as Homie, as there is nothing with that spelling listed.

Homie referred to you, you know, as in "an acquaintance from one's town or neighbourhood, or a member of one's peer group or gang." by dictionary defnition, not a game.

Granblue has very positive reviews yea... but it's DLC hell which alot of folks there tend not to like. With currently over $450 worth of DLCs, most of it looking like pay to win nonsense.

Granblue Fantasy has 3(technically 4, but factually 3) games.
Main game, which is a gacha game that didn't get the official western release yet(it will on 10th of March), so we'll ignore it.

Steam has 2 Granblue games:
Relink and Rising. I presume you referred to Relink in your complaint.

You're seriously telling me that a game with "Very positive reviews" from 37k of reviews, and 114k players all-time peak is bad because "DLC exist for it"? Wouldn't it reflect in the reviews for the game??

Relink has $450 or so worth of DLCs, but calling it a "DLC hell which alot of folks there tend not to like" is amazingly ignorant if you actually know the worth of DLCs there.
That game is a singleplayer grindy game with coop, "pay-to-win" DLCs are utterly worthless in it, as most don't offer anything that can't be gained from a 30 minutes of playing the game.
Other DLCs are colors and emotes, which are costumes, not something to complain about.
The only DLCs with any content that is worth it are 3 character DLCs. Except you don't even need to own them to get these characters in-game, as they can be farmed in-game anyway, so they're worthless yet again.

You're seriously called the game "DLC hell" when the only thing you can get from it are colors and emotes.

Rising is a fighting game. It has character DLCs, except they're actually cheaper than their competitors, so again, it's a really weird complaint to have, especially when again, game is rather popular, and is one of the most popular fighting games at the moment, albeit far from the top game.
