Create-A-Servant 2

[Crying]

The Williams Servant created in FGO comes across to me as pathetic

Most FGO Servants are pathetic, so...

[Dragolord09]

Well if you guys think you can do better, go ahead and do it!

Well if you guys think you can do better, go ahead and do it!

this.
this would probably be beautiful

[sherlock1110]

Well if you guys think you can do better, go ahead and do it!

I mean, three of us have already. (And even if I'm biased in favour of my own I'd say they're all better than the FGO incarnation, because they are actually about Abigail Williams)

[Dragolord09]

How about a Servant that's already been done by Type-Moon and yet hasn't appeared on this subforum yet (Gilgamesh, Medusa's sisters, Eric Bloodaxe, Darius III, Anne & Mary, Kintoki, etc.)?

[Express]

Gil is generally accepted to be an okay concept from what I know, because he's been in basically every single Fate franchise at this point so his characterization is as fleshed out as Saber.
Williams and the like are different cases because it's, as Dullahan put it, glorified stamp-collecting.

That said do what you want lmao

[Dragolord09]

Admittedly my standards have been set at a low level ever since Fate/Stay Night (For instance: "Arthur" is female and has miniaturized a Wave Motion Cannon into Excalibur, Gilgamesh is beardless and has an ego the size of Jupiter, and Cu Chulainn wears spandex instead of body paint and has traded in his Warp Spasm for "Homing" and "Instant Kill" add-ons for his spear). Not to mention said standards have gotten lower and lower with every new entry until I've reached the conclusion that just because history and legends say one thing, doesn't mean it is always the same thing in all universes or that what you've believed to be the truth doesn't always match up with reality.

Of course, I'm trying to wrack my mind to finish off a couple sheets to shore up a couple gaps in the "Ancient Wonders" and "Vishnu Avatar"-type Servant selections that don't look like cut-and-paste jobs so my words may have a slight edge to them that I didn't mean to have.

As someone who dislikes genderbends and the like on principle, I feel you. But there's also a point where you do need to suspend your disbelief because it's anime archetypes.
We're never going to get a mid-30s King Arthur with a beard and no beam sword. It's just not going to happen.

Weird though that I've seen plenty of Talos sheets but not a single one for the Colossus of Rhodes. Looking forward to what comes from them.

[Crying]

Well, I had been thinking about doing an Avenger Boudica... but I still have to do Alaric I first before I make any other Servants

[Dragolord09]

Express: That's why I'm trying to work on them, but like I said, I don't mind if Funderfullness and Daniel Reed take over since they're the experts in this line of work, and maybe Gunbazca for Krishna if he ever comes back. (Though now that I think about it, I wonder what the rest of Sunny's Alter Egos will be like?) On a more serious note, I'm not the type who tries to get hung-up on every minor infraction (and sometimes major) that a franchise makes. If I did, I'd be grouchy for the rest of my days.

At any rate, what do you say to getting away from this line of thought and going back to this thread's main purpose and try not to drag it into another "El Cid" debacle. After all, this is the "Create a Servant" thread and not the "Rant about how Type-Moon has screwed-up the latest Servant they've created" thread.

EDIT:

Crying, I'm afraid you're a little late on that front. I'll let this block of text from TV Tropes about the Summer 2017 event explain what I mean when I say you're a little late on that front:

The second round has Boudica greeting racers with a smile before flying into rage, ranting about the last year's summer event. She is completely upset by the fact the she endured embarrassment wearing a swimsuit for the photoshoot, only to be used in a forgettable three star CE that players tend to burn. What's worse is she let it slide and hoped for a swimsuit version next summer, which didn't happen. She's so enraged by this, she becomes an Avenger and hijacks the race on her chariot, wishing to skin the racers alive, especially Nero.

Hmm, there are some fate GO servants but most recent additions are just ehhh or why? For example i loved the idea of e il Emiya Shirou although it could have been so much more fleshed out, but in general it was interesting idea. And I liked asteroes although his NP has no buessness being EX rank. Thou the one I have the least complaints for whas Edison actually he's pretty bad too nothing, NOTHING exists giveing him a random animal head, NOTHING. Ok I change Amy mind most fate GO seravanats aren't that good.

[Dragolord09]

Actually both Edison's head and Ereshkigal's design are both Throw It In moments on the part of the writers who liked the designs so much, they tossed them into the game.

[Ecksukaribruh]

I kinda wanna make a Ra servant, but... gods.

[Express]

Divine Core Skill.
Boom done.

[Ecksukaribruh]

Let me reiterate, I don't know what to give Ra for abilities.

[34]

Just make a Ra sheet based on Quetz as a Model, they're both Sun Gods.

[the god of world-0]

do you mean turning Ra into a charismatic onee-sama?

[34]

something like that, but mayble Ra would be something closer to a genderbent Ozy

[the god of world-0]

i will take dibs on this idea, please?
