I've just read through this pastebin from the previous thread, and now I'm somewhat curious/concerned, by the underlined text in my image.
Can Nasu really not just write whatever he wants? Is there a person or a group of people, 'within his own company', who can (and do) make writing decisions for him?
Samuel Ramirez
Nah, not really. Even as far as 4* Sabers go, she's only average and gets completely upstaged by Lancelot.
Jace Ortiz
She is ok,she is the only 4* rate up in the kintoki rate up
Ian Parker
Takeuchi will slap him if he tries to do something too bizarre, and then he can't do absolutely insane things like retconning Artoria out of existence or whatever utterly nonsensical, self-sabotaging thing you could come up with.
Brandon Price
>no event for 9 weeks >even facebook normies are mad as fuck asking whens okeanos, dango sucks, gacha is a scam, drop rates suck >plebbit has to censor and remove every NA thread because there's nothing to discuss outside the lack of content
Mate, even final fantasy 14's initial release was better than this dogshit.
Anthony Smith
Man, games dead again. Content when
Isaac Thomas
Takeuchi makes decisions for him. I.e. more saberfaces and genderbended servants
Jayden Nelson
whut are you talking about?
Robert Long
There was myself and at least one or two other autists saying to go for Waver. Apologies, son, you got memed.
Owen Brooks
He's doom posting
Cooper Davis
I hope they announce the Kintoki banner soon. They wouldn't wait a whole week would they? If anything it should be in 5 days, since Dango ended on the 2nd in JP, and Kintoki banner started on 30th, so logically it would be 29th here.
Nicholas Gonzalez
>thought that that was Richie from the colour scheme and a quick glance at the thumbnail >get horribly disappointed fuck you
Christian Perez
The NA version isn't profitable so it's shutting down. Dango-fest was our last chance.
Sebastian Davis
Martha is also on the rate-up
Carter Parker
So my chances should be decent right?
Robert Russell
>the worst event in the history of Fate Grand Order was NA's only chance If the jews had any brains, they would have skipped it altogether.
Christopher Allen
She's still better than Sumanai
Easton Garcia
If they do it early then there's going to be a longer period between it and Halloween, it's a lose lose
Easton Cruz
Just move back Okeanos
Josiah Cook
>Big boss takeuchi is the biggest saber fag in the world >arturia is fucking dogshit in the grand scheme of things, she's not even a good hand-farmer because she has no "NP up" skill like the other servants. >meanwhile his puppet, nasu manages to destroy the game's balance permanently with merlin and it would be against Japanese gacha laws to nerf him without probably refunding everyone 500$ minimum.
when is Mode red's mommy going to be in the gacha?
Colton Sullivan
Do you even know the overhead involved in mobage? This game could probably run on $3k a day.
Jeremiah Young
pretty sure this is a meme.
Sebastian Wood
Even dango cancer is better than no-event.
Jason Baker
Then there would be a bigger gap between Halloween and the thing after wards. You would have to constantly shift things back, but that would't work for events that have a set time
William Sullivan
Doom posting is a meme now. Just have fun with it.
Eli Adams
>can't nerf Merlin They can just give every new future enemy the ability to oneshot your servants when you have Merlin in your team. Call that trait Merlin Hate or something and add some lore behind it.
Brody Cook
Takeuchi is a waifufag, he doesn't care about gameplay memes.
Cameron Baker
>and then he can't do absolutely insane things like retconning Artoria out of existence or whatever utterly nonsensical, self-sabotaging thing you could come up with Okay, but *who has the authority* to prevent him from committing a deliberate act of self-destruction of the game's popularity or financial well-being? That's what I'm curious about. Anyone at all might say "this is insane, don't do [thing]", but can anyone legally prevent him from making such a decision?
Logan Perez
You do realize it's not worth keeping up a dead game that makes like 10k a month net profit when the Japanese version makes millions a day?
All they're doing is embarrassing their brand in the west by associating it with a shitty, dead, low quality, badly translated, 0 event, 0 content piece of shit.
Bentley Rivera
Do you think paying salary to dozen professional translators is cheap? The game would have to make a lot more to stay afloat.
James Wilson
Not really. The stay night banner is still unused, and they can simply make the 100 day anniversairy and Okeanos not run during the same time.
Wyatt Evans
Oh good another fuckin WoW is dead kinda meme..
Thomas Ward
No, it's still FGO
Carson Carter
Probably the same people who prevent say, the president and head dev of blizzard entertainment to turn WoW into a homosexual dating simulator with extra options like scat and diaper play.
ie the stockholders/ceos/etc.
Carson Murphy
>Just have fun with it. Rather not encourage actual retards.
Jose Thompson
Why would he do that? If his best friend who's responsible for making him a rich motherfucker says that's a stupid idea why would Nasu go against that?
Jayden Wright
Didn't say it was a good meme, but it's here to stay. Might as well enjoy it.
John Roberts
These should be thankful for not being fired yet
Cameron Anderson
What's enjoyable about reading daily doom posts?
Luke Thomas
Does TM actually have anything like a board of directors though? TM isn't publicly traded, does it even sell stocks?
Michael Sanchez
Should I just wait for this qt instead?
Nolan Thomas
Nothing. But nothing can be done about it either. So you have two roads ahead of you, learn to put up with it, or let it big you. Only one is conducive to your enjoyment.
Kayden Russell
So you're a cuck. Got it.
Josiah Sullivan
Yes.
Austin Gray
I would too, but I have already have Alter and Nero
Lincoln Williams
Definitely
Kevin Watson
Only if you have tubercolosis fetish
Kayden Walker
...
Ryder Long
too many 5* qts in this game, senpaitachi
I may be able to get a handful, but it'll never be enough.
Oliver Sullivan
TM doesn't, but Aniplex/DW definitely does and whatever contracts and legal stuff Nasu signed likely gives them some measure of power over what he can do with the franchise.
Adrian Ortiz
Noob question: what should I do with the extra copies of 1 n 2 star servants? Just use them as exp? Can I re-do interludes with those extra servants?
Jonathan Mitchell
>You do realize it's not worth keeping up a dead game that makes like 10k a month net profit when the Japanese version makes millions a day? What kind of socialist bullshit am I reading? Profit is profit, man. Do you truly think they have "a dozen professional translators" working every day?
Gabriel Smith
>ie the stockholders/ceos/etc.
>looked up the Japanese Wikipedia page for TM to check for names >Takeuchi is *actually* the president of the company fuck's sake
Jordan Mitchell
Some of them are actually useful, but a lot can just be turned into exp. >can I re-do interludes No, nor can you reget bond rewards
Chase Lopez
Raise your current ones to NP5. It's worth it for Hans and Cursed Arm Hassan, at least. After that, burn em. Not even worth XP.
Elijah Johnson
>Harems enjoy getting killed
Easton Lewis
>dozen
Try 3. You think they get paid even 1000USD a day each?
Kayden Long
>Draw shitty deviant art tier shit for years >Suck at art so no money >Somewhat successful writer friend takes pity on you and decides to make a funny joke company >You yell at him until he let's you call yourself president >He does all the real work writing while you sometimes turn in shitty anime girl art after you finish masturbating
Adrian Reed
So you're saying running your own business is fine if your net profit is 50 bucks a month?
Sorry pal but company manpower/resources are limited, they're not gonna waste shit on something that gives 5 grand a month tops vs investing that in far more lucrative projects (ie localizing china, Taiwan, etc).
Gavin Nguyen
How are the devs this incompetent
Do they just hate NA
Do they want it to die
Blake Williams
If I want Summer Nobu, will it be double for me to get her if I only roll a single ten roll per story update (so like 30 quartz every 2 months or so) and save all login and monthly tickets (9 or so per month)?
Grayson Diaz
JANNU!
Michael Myers
>It's worth it for Cursed Arm Hassan How so? Does it raise the chance of instant-death or something?
Carson Wood
Hey WoW IS dead.
Ian Ross
Except they're already localizing china, where the fuck would they have invested next except the english market ?
The only retarded move in this growth-wise is not extending to Europe as well.
Fucking doom memers man
Matthew Morales
She will get into NA for the next 2 years for Christ's sake
Carson Ward
>not profiting >wouldn't give them the incentive to keep paying for translators and devs >somehow socialist what kind of mental gymnastics did you have to to come up with that conclusion?
Luke Foster
They are just Seaniggers user
Cameron Hill
I'm in the same boat. But i'm really tempted to go for her to have a Buster Saber, Arts Saber and Quick Saber meme team.
Levi Howard
>Sorry pal but company manpower/resources are limited, they're not gonna waste shit on something that gives 5 grand a month tops vs investing that in far more lucrative projects (ie localizing china, Taiwan, etc). If that were the truth then F/GO would have died in its first four months before Okeanos. It wasn't a huge success in Japan either, remember?
Evan Long
Hey boss, I heard about your loss
Isaac Morgan
>F:GO >euro servers
mate, unless you're releasing an AAA normie game or a simulatorshit in Germany or an autistic turn based strategy fantasy game in Russia, it's generally a waste of time to release things in Europe.
It's just full of white trash who only like soccer or eastern euros who play dota 2 or counterstrike or homm3.
Zachary Hughes
I know, that's why I'm asking.
Colton Brown
It is profiting. The idea that it isn't profiting "enough" by some arbitrary overlord's whims sounds socialist to me, like they have a government quota on returned investment. Or at least anti-capitalist. Running in the black is always a worthwhile endeavor.
