    Oh right, LB4 had Douman manipulating Arjuna Alter to spam world resets and Pepe did something so that Douman couldn't keep escaping with his onmyoudo or whatever. What did he do in Olympus again?

    I don't think it's fair to call Hell Mandala filler considering Douman finally bit it. Imaginary Scramble is a headscracther for me though. They advertised it as main story event like CCC and Ooku, but nothing in it seemed especially relevant. I guess it could come up again in the future though.

    Imaginary Scramble is a very poorly disguised event

    I guess it's a sequel of sorts to Salem since it involves Outer Gods fucking around, but it feels like a pretty poor justification

    Yeah that's it. I'm betting on Hastur and Carcosa shenanigans for Lovecraft Boogaloo III

    The app must take up a lot of space then.

    Not to argue the point, but Douman's role in Shimousa could have been replicated by Faceless NPC Wizard 2 and nobody would even blink.

    That's the best part: It's basically a browser game, meaning it doesn't take ANY space at all. (Well, the app itself takes a bit of space but it's really just a prettied up browser, nobody uses it).

    I read somewhere that DW already laid off some of their staffs. The cancellation of Tokyo Dome event last year really hurts them I think...

    If that so, why don't they push new contents to cover their losses? Give us no-break banners and events like it was 2016 once again?

    Sometimes I really don't understand how DW's marketing works...

    DW's scheduling just suck ass IMO. Like mentioned beforehand, GBF has done a pretty good job in releasing new contents despite COVID, voice in can be excused due to the current situation, but the game has never been late on events. Azur Lane also manages to keep up despite dealing with new creative guidelines and COVID, and hell, even Magia Record is on schedule, the only thing lacking is the full voiced main story scenario, but events have been coming up at regular pace.

    Then again, DW is very dependent on the writers, and it seems Nasu's interest has shifted back to Tsukihime already, so FGO will end perhaps in a year or two sloppily. At least they serve well as a punching bag for TM since most hate are directed to DW and not TM which has much say on how the game is set. Still remember Nasu saying in interview that Instinct is a good skill which need no upgrade, and Takeuchi stating NP skip is not FGO.

    People know Nash is a lazy lying ass, but it's DW's job to make sure Nasu actually puts out shit so they can make events. Two is fucking terrible at this.

    I read somewhere that Salt River is Takeuchi's friend that got roped in when he pointed out flaws in FGO and gave suggestions, so he might be more daring to make Nasu churn out shit. No.2 has a weaker position and thus can only try to appease Nasu. Or maybe just Nasu and Takeuchi's focus are back to Tsukihime and Melty Blood, so FGO's role to bring them out is fulfilled and can now die a disgraceful death?

    Reminder that Nasu isn't the only writer. I don't think he does many events either, focusing MOSTLY on main story chapters. So him being lazy has basically zero bearing on the lack of events and shit scheduling by DW. That's them not caring enough to get the other writers to do anything. I suspect there's a very lackadaisical attitude of letting the writers submit ideas for events but otherwise not pushing anything themselves beyond Summer and Christmas.

    I thought there are like 4 writers in FGO? There is Nasu ofc, but also Higashide, Sakurai and Meteo. Nasu basically only writes the core story of main contents, the three of them expand it...

    With Nasu focusing back on Tsukihime you'd think he relegates FGO contents to his 3 co-workers...

    Maybe the other writers don’t want to work on FGO anymore either.

    Are they allowed to write without supervision?

    Also, speaking of other TM projects, I hope Extra Record’s development also goes nicely. Maybe they’re going to do events or something to commemorate other projects once they released.
