Fate/Grand Order General Discussion (CONTAINS SPOILERS)

[Hawkeye]

Like, I don't know how familiar you are with mobage but just glancing at the ones I have installed right now, Chain Chronicle has 478 units, Bravely Archive has 290, and Shironeko Project has 130. And judging from the (apparent) gameplay in this it's probably going to lean more toward the numbers in the first two than the last one.

Adding onto what Mcjon says, what you are likely going to see is multiple rarity variants of the same Servants. So if you think Ranbow Saber's design is pretty dull for Huke, you can probably expect him to draw some good stuff for the higher rarities.

Although the character pool at launch might still be pretty small.

Thank you for the informative info. Honestly I've been assuming this game will be like Marvel: Avengers Alliance. I don't know if any of you are familiar, but it's a F2P Facebook game that's been going for a couple of years and its current roster is about 120 playable characters, a fair proportion of which are available in different outfits etc that change their abilities, and they tend to release a new character each month in a quest type deal etc.

So while I'm not exactly familiar with these sorts of games over all, that's the one I've the most experience with and have sorta been building my expectations against that. I mean, as it stands there's like 78 servants (not including the Fate/School Life doodles) all across the Type-Moon franchise and they've basically hired the artists behind each and every one of them for this project. So if there's a good chance of reaching the same sort of scale as M:AA, with 100 odd characters with various 'levels' to some, I'd be over the bloody moon about that. XD

[JetKinen]

Yeah it should be like that but instead of superheroes its Waifus/Husbandos.

[mewarmo990]

I lost several months of my life to M:AA. I think it picked up once I started being able to complete Spec-Ops events for the bonus heroes, which were really cool. It's been probably half a year since i played though.

Yeah, same, I got rather bored of it, and never reached a point where I was completing Spec Ops without having to throw money at the last job or two where It was cheaper than trying to buy the hero I needed for it.

[You]

Let's not talk about PAD.

I got a Metaron and Ronia last godfest so yeah, let's talk about PAD.

Is Chain Chronicle worth playing?

Should I just wait for the Red Dragon version?

They gave 40 stones for new years. Pretty good.
Game is okay. Story is okay. There is an anime. The Wada units trigger me.

[Mcjon01]

And I got Rice-A-Roni yesterday, what's your point?

[JetKinen]

So the Red Dragon game is going to be based on some F2P game?

Eeeh, i was hoping for an mobile version of the future board game

[mewarmo990]

I've never had Rice-A-Roni. Hm, I've never had most of that stuff I see on TV and in supermarkets because I didn't eat much American food as a kid. I want to try them. Hell, despite being surrounded by its ads my entire life I never had Subway until I was 19.

now, who or what is a hamburger helper?

[You]

And I got Rice-A-Roni yesterday, what's your point?

It only matters if you got a Rice-A-Roni last godfest. Because it was a 2 day godfest.

You should have seen it coming; all F2P games are the same game.

One pound, one pan, one tasty meal!

[JetKinen]

I didn't even know it was free!

[Mcjon01]

All smartphone games are F2P!

[JetKinen]

Touché

Well there are some fun board game adaptations for smartphones, where you have to buy them!

Neuroshima Hex is pretty good

My personal belief about Grand Order is that most of the new servants here that aren't directly related to GO's plot like, probably Shielder, are going to be used in future Fate spinoffs.

Like this is going to be a database for future stuff.

[keeper13]

Now that someone mentioned David, I want to see Goliath.

I hope he doesn't have some dumb weakness like "loses to short people".

[Haseo Nanaya]

Didn't goliath wear like 6t armor?

[Milbunk]

I'm really looking forward to this coming out, it was one of my main inspirations for taking the time to learn Japanese so that it could help me to play through this.

[Hawkeye]

How about Top 10?

It shouldn't be overly dense either since it's probably just dialogue, not pages and pages of prose.

I've been staring at moonrunes long enough. I should get to learning too.
