Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

*notices ur grudge* what's this? OwO

i too am offended by people using cutesy emoticons because i have nothing better going on in my life.

This looks like a game I'd be interested in - I didn't really check it out at the time because my RP schedule has been all booked up, but I'd be interested in this once that clear up in the next few months.

I'm really interested in the puzzle solving conceptually. I don't see anything in your FAQ that looks bad or offputting, though you might want to make it a bit more clear what the actual meat of gameplay will involve, with a well thought out TDM or something like that.

Otherwise, looks cool to me! Sorry it didn't work out the first time.

why am i seeing art of ilya in ainu clothing

is this a fgo thing

i guess we'd gone too long without a culturally insensitive faux pas from them

i try to be optimistic about it every year, but damn if i'm not getting discouraged.

eight tries a day, and all i'm getting is junk. ffs i haven't even gotten the ring or the sword this year and normally i'm swimming in them.

it's the new servant, sitonai, who is a pseudo-servant bound to illya. she showed up in the last lostbelt story chapter, but wasn't summon-able until now. sitonai is a figure from ainu mythology, hence the clothing. she also apparently has elements of louji and freyja from scandinavian mythology, but that just sounds like something that was in the lostbelt chapter, since nothing in her playable form references that as far as i can tell.

as far as being culturally insensitive, idk. i haven't seen anyone more knowledgeable on ainu culture speaking out against it. with pseudo-servants, you're not really getting a representation of the original myth most of the time anyways, just the aesthetic trappings of them (see also; ishtar, parvati, muramasa, zhuge liang, etc).

personal opinion, i don't think her design is any worse than the ainu sisters from the samurai shodown games (nakoruru and rimururu) and those were historically positively received by the ainu, as far as i've read about it.

Hi!

I've been playing Glinda off and on for about the past 5 years or so. I'm looking for an Elphie or any of her other castmates to PSL/meme. I play her with heavy book influence to colour in some of the shallower parts of the musical but still follow the plot of the musical for the most part. (No shame in admitting I am a Gelphie shipper, but happy to play any kind of relationship with Glinds)

Very happy to discuss the background/information I use for her as I also have dragged a bit of the original Oz books in with her as well.

I'm also completely down for some cross-canon stuff and anything really. HMU.

/chinhands

i thought i could get away from the nasty fgo oni designs for a bit, but lo and behold, we've got them again in the new halloween event

at least brave liz is cute, but holy shit am i sick of the onis being shoehorned into every other plot. pls stop dw, i can only take so much

anon, how the fuck

brave liz is a 14 year old girl in a metal bikini that is literally falling off of her, failing to leave her naked only by the angle of her portrait. how is that somehow better than the oni. they are the exact same kind of gross.

Thank you for your feedback. I think you're right. I do need to make it more clear that the puzzle-solving and mysteries will play a big role in the gameplay—I pretty much just mention it once, in the premise, I'm realizing now that I'm looking everything back over again. It's also a good idea to tackle making that more clear by putting it into the TDMs.

I hope that if it works out for you to join, that it will be a fun place for you to bring your character! It sort of sounds like the fact that there was such a crowded field of new games last spring made it so a lot of people never even heard of this game until I was forced to abandon the launch.

sa

and i'm just gonna link these images here so people who don't know shit about fgo can see just how dumb this distinction is

https://i.imgur.com/bkvLhXE.png this is brave liz

https://i.imgur.com/CypxFKN.png, https://i.imgur.com/yLMypGM.png these are the oni

how in the fuck is one better than the other here? how are they not all the same flavor of gross (though tbh ibaraki isn't bad at all, in any version, shuten is the one where they push the whole sexy nubile loli body thing).

Brilliant, anon. You got me to smile.

nayrt

shuten is the one where they push the whole sexy nubile loli body thing

off-topic but

based on her body type and voice, i wouldn’t say that shuten is supposed to be a little girl imo. she reads more as a petite adult woman especially in her caster art tbh.

If the game is constantly tasteless or offensive, why don't people uninstall?

somebody's jelly

She's physically based on Aoi Yuuki, so you'd be correct.

;w;

ayrt

tbh that just makes their comment even dumber.

because it's not. you hear about it when it is, but the majority of designs are cool, and the majority of events are fine. it's got tasteless designs, but they're pretty easy to ignore for the most part, and the most gross parts of the fandom are almost exclusively on reddit, which is, once again, avoidable.

plus you don't have to pay for it and there's very little actual pressure to whale. it'd probably be a different story, otherwise.

because they'd much rather make excuses for it (see above) and get into dumb arguments over WEH X IS WORSE THAN Y WEH NO IT ISN'T WEH YES IT IS

fate fandom has always been dumb but fgo really did bring out the biggest rejects in the refuse pile

who insulted your waifu, anon

I don't know what their deal is with Ibaraki, but Shuten is blatantly sexualized in her behavior and dialogue. Brave Liz is not. You're being a little disingenuous just going off their designs, especially since Liz's armor is an obvious retro homage (to Dragon Warrior, even) and this is even commented upon in the story.

Is it a little tacky? Yeah, maybe. Is it the "same level of gross" as Shuten? Uh, no. Not even close. Go look at Shuten's FA art again and tell me that's not pandering to a fetish. Liz is just being an oblivious dork and this is consistent in all her lines. And her FA is... smiling happily at her squirrels, wow. So lewd.

anon, how is "we evnetually get over the stuff that bothers us and enjoy the game anyways" an excuse?

anon

it's a nearly naked 14 year old. this "but it's an homage!" line of thought is really gross. check yourself.

this is why i could never really get into fgo

i can put up with tasteless pedo designs to a point, but what in the whole entire fuck does a pink-haired 14-year-old anime girl in a bikini have to do with elizabeth báthory? why, game, even tease me by giving all these lolis and titty monsters the names of intriguing historical figures
