Shirou: There is meaning for me in chasing this.
Archer: I NEVER HAD MEANING.
Localizationing stuff
I mean, Archer started out believing what he did had meaning and was only disillusioned later. To show Shirou sticking to his convictions and being rewarded by the narrative by having the orphans die on their own instead of him having to take some kind of action isn't exactly "Oh, yeah, he's definitely not following Archer's path", to put it mildly.
Archer's upset because he thinks he's just an imitation rather than having something to begin with, having forgotten he did have something to begin with.
Shirou's epiphany in Fate is that there's even more than that something he's carrying.

Except unlike the way Raff phrased it, everyone else was there to beat the shit out of each other and Alex was the one that went "screw that, come work under me and let's all go on an adventure". IknowIsaidIwouldntstartbut

Also, about the rip your arm off thing he said to Kariya, that was him in his weird way trying to spare Kariya and Sakura by making Kariya believe he had no choice but to relinquish his Master rights, and he didn't plan to hurt Sakura either.
He's the King of Conquerors, not the King of Fun and Games.
That post was last taken by a weird Egyptian dude with spiky hair, last I checked.

Caster Yugi is summoned to Chaldea, spends his time bothering Cleo, Ozy, Nito and Iskandar to play foolish card games with him, they all keep discreetly slipping away with lame excuses.
Even Iskandar, who'd rather be playing videogames with Waver instead.
