And I think ultimately the thing is that like when you deal with series like these where you love the writing and introspection and discussion of human history, culture, impact, etc. and what all that means, and you talk about celebrating it, and you talk about preserving it and understanding it and engaging it, that's kind of what Fate series' thesis is, especially with FGO. But it KEEPS FALLING THROUGH in terms of ACTUALLY RESPECTING IT!! So you're sitting here like aw man I love Aztec culture I love this I love that and then you see their representation of Aztec culture and you're just like "Why is your most evil Aztec character in this arc the one with the darkest skin tone!!!!" Hello!!!!!!!!!!! I don't blame people for being Frustrated with this series at all or even hating it. The underlying racism really is something that you can see seeping through in many designs, in many storylines and in many aspects of the series like their characterizations of certain "alter"s, etc. it's not something that should be condoned nor excused. A lot of fans take the time to try to remedy it whereever possible, from people just doing skintone color correction to full on redesigns for characters like Kama or Lakshmibai or Scheherazade.

My main point, or rather frustration as a long time fan is that.... The authors and artists of FGO will always choose otaku culture over respecting real life culture. They have not a lot of vested interest in trying to make FGO a true and genuine story that respects and truly understands the gravity and weight of what it's trying to represent. There are though a great deal -- and I really mean like, a huge amount -- of people who get Into history and culture and mythos and make huge efforts to depict it in a way that's understanding of those anthropological grounds Because of Fate, and who will create fan works that will really resonate with people, it will play off the storylines that have been written and the ideas that have been presented forth. And Fate series is very in love with that. The authors and artists love it when they see doujin work that takes these ideas and works with them to their fullest extent. But it SUCKS that the best representation you can get of many of these characters -- IS LITERALLY THROUGH FAN WORKS AND FAN-REINTERPRETATIONS!!!! LIKE WHY ARE YOU MAKING US DO ALL THE WORK YOU LAZY BASTARDS 😭😭😭😭 YOU SEE US DOING ALL THIS, ALL THESE REDESIGNS, ALL THIS STUFF, ALL THESE FAN WORKS THAT TALK ABOUT THE GRAVITY OF THE EVENTS THAT OCCUR AND THE CONCEPTS OF THESE GODS AND LEGENDS AND HISTORICAL FIGURES BEING IN THE SAME PLACE AT THE SAME TIME FORCED TO WORK TOGETHER TOWARDS A COMMON GOAL, AND ALL YOU CAN GIVE US IS AN ERESHKIGAL ALTER SKIN THAT HAS A BETTER SKINTONE IN LB7!!???? HELLOOOO!!(!#)(!*)!()$&(!)!*#()

Faerie Tales

I am in full Fate/Grand Order mode right now and it's paying off nicely. I think. It's an odd thing to juggle three mobile titles (FGO, Azur Lane, and Ever Crisis), Baldur's gate 3, Persona 3 Reload, and my millionth run at Mass Effect Legendary. I got too many games on my plate right now. I feel like i should pull back on something but, at the same time, nah? Like, P3R is my sh*t and i am absolutely in love with BG3. I dunno, maybe I'll reassess eventually but my crippling gaming addiction has only a nebulous effect on my choice to continue grinding through the admittedly frustrating and horrifically pay-walled world of the Grand Orders. I do it because i shill hard for Nasu and have for actual decades. Plus, some of the stories are really cool. F*cking Avalon le Fae was peak Type Moon and i cannot wait until the Dragon Slayer money runs out so they have UFOtable animate that sh*t. Interestingly enough, the Faeries are kind of why I'm even writing this update.

Yo, i popped Barghest! Tam Lin Gawain is easily my favorite of the Faerie Knights. I mean, Melusine is but Barghest is definitely right there with her. Of the newer Servants released since i lost my first account, She ranks right up there in the top ten. Actually, i think she was number nine. Albion was number one, but making it into that top ten is a feat in of itself. Dozens of dope ass servants were added in my years long hiatus and the Black Dog made it to the top of the top. It just kind of blows she's a Saber. I'm lousy with Sabers. A good portion of my Five-Stars are Sabers. Like, i already have Mordred, she will NEVER leave my party, and Artoria. They are powerhouses in their own right but i also have Okita and Altera as back up. That's four Five-Star Sabers. Where the f*ck does my Hellhound even fit? Still, i am mad hype to pop her off the Artoria Caster Banner, because i did it with some bullsh*t Summon Tickets! Pretty sure i got Artoria doing that, too, but that's not why I'm happy.

You see, that Caster Banner is part of the Twenty Million Downloads campaign. Also [art of that, are two special summon tickets, one for a Four-Star Craft Essence and the other for a Four-Star Servant. I was going to use that ticket on Barghest, even though i already have a ton of Sabers. That's how much i like the character. Popping her off that banner allows me to choose a different Servant now, one that i actually need. I have one Avenger and it's Hessian Lobo. That guy sucks. I mean, it's fine, but it ain't Demon Nobu. However, there is another Four-Star Avenger who i had on my old account. An Avenger that happens to be a Medusaface, and we all know how much of a sucker i am for Medusa. Not only did i get a Barghest on one of the most improbable ways possible, but i was able to outright choose Gorgon! I was able to secure a much need Avenger option AND the Black Dog I've wanted since Avalon was released! Honestly, I wish I had one more of those free tickets. I'm set on Gorgon, for sure, but Lancer Artoria Alter is an option, too, and she's kind of my favorite Artoria. There's just something about an Alter which really does it for me.

I'm actually really very pleased with this account right now. Sucks I'm still missing a ton of Servants that i want, but progress is being made. I mentioned in my last update i was able to finally acquire Anastasia but, since then, I've also added Ivan the Terrible, Anne Bonny and Marie Reed, Assassin Okita, and Lakshmibai. These are all solid additions, even though they aren't necessarily Servants i would personally choose for myself. I mean, Ivan is, that gigantic motherf*cker is a powerhouse, but considering i don't run at FGO Banners like i do Azur Lane ones, the fact that i have any Five-Stars is kind of a blessing. Obviously, my Mordred is coming along nicely. I've been able to both unlock and max out her second Append Skill, while grinding away at the monumental task of getting that eleventh Bond Level. Right now, that's the current quest. Oh, somehow, i was able to naturally roll a second Mordred so she's got a level two Noble Phantasm now. Just three to go! I'm just chipping away, man. Slowly but surely, I'll have my max Mordred.
