For Day 3 of @kotogilweek!

Prompt: Vacation

I know I'm posting these back to back but I've been working on my drawings back to back for KotoGil Week!

Also, I genuinely think that Gilgamesh would full on where a Kimono instead of a Yukata to the Hot Springs.

The fate zero remake looks great

Also, I enjoy that, whether they're more popular or not, SaberxIori shows up more than any other ship of them in my circles. IMO their relationship kinda transcends all others in that story, even when one has a canonical wife.

fgo is backpedalling on a feature for the first time lmao they'd expanded the append skill system to add one that increases crit damage and one that lowers the cooldown of the first use of each skill(!) but they all still cost the same amount of super rare servant exclusive currency so if you want to unlock them all you need to roll 8 copies of your bond 15 5* servant AND also not have used their excess coins on the feature they'd already introduced to turn spare coins (that now retroactively are not spare) into grails

compensation is 120 quartz (lol) and promising they're going to refund all the coins you put into grails (which they tracked apparently?) (why not retroactively hand out coins for amount of storylocked 3* then) and make it possible to swap levels from one append skill to another (bandaid solution to the real problem being that this coin system is bogus gacha bait to begin with) (they'd promised servant-independent coins ages ago)

i do think it's interesting that this is evidently where fgo players are collectively drawing the line and making enough noise that lasengle actually has to backpedal on it. I don't have any hard statistics on player activity but my anecdotal experience is that fgo is bleeding players at this point so I wonder if they'd still have backpedalled (and with such a sizeable sum of quartz) if player retention wasn't as much at risk lately. pulling out so many collaboration characters in an unusually short timespan and an incredibly long anticipated unit like summer ereshkigal with a literal affection meter mechanic and anti-ntr features that make it so you can never use her optimally if you don't roll her yourself feels like a real desperate move on their part to get people to come back. hey you left fgo to play real games like samrem and mahoyo and tsukire right look we have water saber and aoko and ciel please come back!!

fgo has been running into the limits of its fairly basic gameplay engine for years and rolling out various bandaid systems to pretend to add more depth for as many years without addressing the real issues but since there's so many other fate games getting (re)releases lately people have less reason to care about fgo specifically, because they can just pay for one of those other games once and have a complete story experience without having to do time-limited chores about it. I joked about oberon killing fgo earlier but I think realistically it's the combination of lb6 being a story high they haven't been able to reach again + samrem releasing and mahoyosweep picking up around when people were realizing fgo wasn't gonna reach that same high again. there's less and less reason to stick with fgo because there's real complete games coming out that will give you a very similar story experience and won't make you do various time-limited chores about it

ideally this will scare lasengle into making more intensive changes but they've been so stubbornly blind to the actual problems with the game for so long I'm not counting on them actually fixing those

it's been a day since i've finished samrem, and so i will say, that if you are someone who loves fate and wishes to play a game that also loves fate, truly and honestly, then please play samrem

i don't think any other typemoon property has demonstrated such an honest appreciation of fate, its characters and themes, and that's really saying something.

Fate oomfs is samrem fun?? I’m interested but 60 bucks is a bit of a plunge for me

[femboyyuri]

really funny that the extent of iori's new artwork for the fgo collab is "he's at a different angle now"

[samipekoe]

im really sorry to bother you with this but do you need to play other fate games to play the one with the they them saber im desperated your ilustrations made me insane i hope you have a good day

not at all!!! samrem is in fact a great starting point to jump in with no previous knowledge of fate/!!!!

[nero-draco]
