...and the story was awfully dull, likely worse than anything I've ever seen in any kind of Fate game or anime, including Last Encore.

One of my friends kept saying that it's gonna get better after the 1st Singularity. Unfortunately, that was not the case for me, as the 2nd Singularity felt like a repeat of the same shit but with different characters. Guess what? Oceanos was even worse than that - an endless stretch of boring quests with nothing particularly exciting about it. It didn't get any better in London too.

The point is, I feel really concerned about this anime now... and I feel like I already know what kind of story to expect ._. Don't repeat my mistake and stay away from this game if you want to keep at least SOME positive expectations.

They are wrong. It only get better starting at Camelot.

The anime adapt Babylonia chapter because fans voted for it to be among the best. Same with Camelot getting movies.

Babylonia and Camelot are better than those singularities, because that's when the story stopped taking itself like a bad joke, just keep your hype down and don't expect something that good tho

>I tried playing FGO

that was a mistake

Tbh, I dont think you can make an opinion about babylonia if you havent even made it into there, its universally accepted in the fgo fandom that camelot and babylonia were the 2 best singularities in FGO because NASU himself personally wrote it, instead of out sourcing it to other fate writers cough sakurai cough septem. I personally recommend you to keep reading down the road because it starts kicking in during america and reach its peaks during camelot and babylonia. I'm not sure how the anime will adapt it since theres a lot of rpg elements that was mentioned in babylonia but please dont let the earlier chapters discourage you from reading down when the story becomes much much better.

The general consensus among FGO players is that the first 5 singularities are mediocre to bad (with maybe the exception of America, which isn't amazing but is decent.) Don't know who told you it would get better after the first Singularity, but that's not really true. In spite of your opinion on what you've read so far, it's not really valid to have an opinion on Camelot or Babylonia without reading them, as those are when the "story" actually becomes a story. All of the previous singularities were written by different people, but Camelot and Babylonia were written by Nasu (original writer of FSN) and they're actually really good.

just skip the story and focus on the game until camelot, although tbh if you actually spend time on learning how to play it'll also be boring up until camelot

Even when the early story are pretty dull i pretty much enjoyed playing the game. In your case, you’re already expecting something to hate and doesn’t even want to give this game a chance. You don’t even reach the singularity where the anime will adapt.

The early singularities range from bad to mediocre, and take a huge step up with Camelot and Babylonia. But I wouldn't recommend playing for just the story. Combat is the thing you're going to be doing the most, and if that doesn't do it for you, I wouldn't waste time continue playing it.

I’m more interested on focusing on the servants I summoned more the story. Story is pretty meh, but Okeanos is my least favorite singularity. I liked the London singularity the most in the last sections (I hope they make Solomon a playable character some day).

I’m currently on E Pluribus Unum and I’m pretty hyped for Camelot and Babylonia. Can’t wait to see Caster Gilgamesh and Enkidu in the story.

Yo will you shut up about FGO? You are in every single thread like a fucking plague. We get it, you don’t like it. Everyone else does. If you don’t like it, don’t watch the anime.

no i didn't get my opinions from 4chan, I hardly ever visit that place. but I'm sure the people there are more sensible than the typical FGO player who makes memes about getting screwed over by the gacha and how it's "suffering" yet continues to burn hundreds of dollars trying to collect shitty one dimensional waifus, characters with no real depth, effort, or love put into writing them, unlike my worm ridden thot

I'm going to continue expressing my opinions and hatred in the FGO threads if i feel like it, and there's nothing you can do to stop it :^)

The first few singularities were mostly just fanservice junk. As they mentioned above, it picks up starting from Camelot and there's a few singularities inside that get rated as the worst of the worst (Ex: Agartha).

You don't seem to be wanting to give the game a chance so I guess there's no point in convincing you otherwise. However, I guess you kind of dodged a bullet because the game's NA community is kinda yikes.

Agartha honestly was pretty underrated, it wasn't that bad. I expected trash and got a somewhat enjoyable ride with different things going on.

It wasn't good but it wasn't bad either. Honestly I felt people kinda overreacted to it from JP but everyone has a different cup of tea.

It was just to long and I really didn't care for any of the new characters aside from Penth, at least the finale was fun gameplay wise.

NA censored quite a bit of the translation from the JP version in regards to Agartha, so that's likely why the reaction wasn't so bad when they released the singularity here.

Agartha was a boring meh read. Nothing to write home about.

That being said going back to the main topic for me Babylonia was the best singularity, and for the most part everything is skipable until Camelot. Septum is a Nero jerk off so unless you like her then its not a good read, America would have REALLY benefited from story only nodes, London was meh and compared to all of them Camelot is a step up.

Why do you think the game is popular despite having shitty story, disgusting character designs (would you look at BB and Nero design LMAO. Those disturbing tits and eyes are not art at all smh), boring music and no voice except battle. The ONLY good thing about FGO is FATE, yes because it has FATE so people have gone nuts and do w/e. It's a single player game with boring contents and has shittiest gacha ever and yet people still suck dicks because it has FATE in it.

Story is shit. You gonna tell me to pass Camelot? I reached bloody Solomon in 2 weeks during 1/2 AP and with a team of lv.60 Mash, lv.50 Cu and a support servant LMAO. Ez and boring game. I am stuck at the tentacle boss with eva buff and my friend has no servant that can bypass evade buff. So don't tell me to reach Camlet Camelot Camelot because I tried to read the boring story and I was ultimately disappointed ffs

tbh off topic but im just roflting at people thinking fate being murdered by fgo is some sin towards earth when EVERYTHING in jp that gets overpopularised over a certain threashold gets milked
its just those things are stuff no one but the hardcore fans who wont talk to outsiders much(saint seiya, conan)
or stuff that get milked differently(hokuto no ken)

its basically what is a genuinely normal thing completely overblown by the western community as usual
that it gets overhyped and overhated sasuga

It's not like Lostbelt 3 was amazingly written...LB1 and 4 were by far better.
Urobuchi is overrrated, Saya no Uta and Requiem for the Phantom were indeed great. Princess Tutu beats Madoka, Psycho Pass chars is just a bunch of mouthpieces infodumping lolphylosophy, and GitS did dystopia better.
Oh, but I agree that he is better than Chuunisu. And this coming from someone who likes the guy...

Sakurai will never live up to her Septem taint, even if rumors of she writting Shimosa and LB2 were true.


However, I guess you kind of dodged a bullet because the game's NA community is kinda yikes.


Truth, at least for plebbit. I remember the Reddit manbabies ganguing on some1 by dozens because of him pointing out JP server was getting lazy after Ooku (an obvious fact, even people in JP Twitter were bitching on how long it took to LB4 release, and all those shitty artificial events in between).
Cringe.

Fate has been absolutely murdered by greed and F/GO, this is just another knife in an already dead corpse.


It's not like pre-FGO Fate was a 100% greedless passion project...there is a reason why Tsukihime Remake, promissed a decade ago got shafted by more and more Fate spin-offs. You can even say the Fate/Zero anime success is really what killed the rest of the Nasuverse, if you will.

Fgo not everyone taste.. Thats it.
I love fate series and i love fgo even though gacha is shit and grinding is like hell, but i must admit it not everyone will/must like them.
You know i spend 1 years from i start playing fgo just to do nothing because starting story is shit, don't even mentioning the game play is boring at first, it makes me sleepy lol

but after resolving my resolve because i saw there is solomon singularity event i decided to give it a chance again and.......

Im not regreting it even one bit

Starting camelot im starting to feel the flow the story and love for character, at babylonia i can say im absolutely love this, and at the end of solomon i can feel the flashback of all boring, fun, love, and salt while im playing this
And that's worth it(if you like me who like reading and imagine the feeling of every character then the feeling is absolutely best) my other advice is you have friend that playing this too and can sharing each other

The point is: this kind of game its not for everyone, if you start playing because how great anime is then prepare for disappointment

Lets hope the studio can handle the story ^^

To be part of the echo chamber, Fuyuki, Orleans, Septem, and Okeanos are all pretty bad to mediocre at best. London is where it starts to get a bit better, dropping major plot points that really drive the rest of the game home. America isn't too bad, but a bit goofy. Like everyone said, Camelot is where it picks up becoming actually quite good, and it culminates with Babylonia. Everything after that has been fairly decent to quite good. Shinjuku is quite fun.
