I played someway into Orleans Singularity, and the story is... actually better than I anticipated. I kept my expectation low, honestly, but the plot is interesting enough and the characters are lovable enough that I can positively get into it.
At the same time, though, I keep wishing that this is actually a full-blown RPG so I could explore and talk to NPCs and stuff to get more sense of the world and narrative build-up. Some more characters moments wouldn't hurt either.
Or maybe it's a good thing the character moments are as brief as they are because I've already gotten kinda attached to them that
In other news, I knew it! The weird hat is sentient, after all!
(the translation in general feels rather wonky. A shame, that)

when Mozart says he wishes Marie and him could get summoned together again I got this urge to splurge just to get Marie...

Hm... so how do you do that? Sounds interesting as hell, but if he can spam his NP...

I'm missing 4 Caster Monuments to ascend Medea to max. It's been like that for three weeks now, and every time I get Waver to appear, he drops pieces instead of monuments.
Is there any event in which we can get Caster Monuments on the horizon? I also need Feathers and Claws to max ascend Artemis, but I understand there's a farm spot in Okeanos for the former and I can farm for Claws on Fridays for the latter.

Just... don't get your hopes up for Septem.
He can also use guts at will after using all of his initial three. And also he just used NP without any charge after that too. I don't know how to beat him yet.

According to other sites he will only cast Guts one more time after his automatic 3 run out, as a sort of Kaizo trap.
So basically, survive 5 Stellas.

Yep, pretty easy with Irisviel. Otherwise, you stack Defense buffs with Mash and a friend Waver until you hit 100%.

A Bond 10 Herc can also eat 3 Stellas so putting him in the backline is a buffer for more than half the fight.

Bond 10 Herc has 4 guts and 1 evade, doesn't he?
Technically that survives exactly 5 Stellas but other attacks also have to be factored in.
Halloween will have monuments for the 4 classes not covered by Moon Goddess. Saber, lancer, caster, berserker.

So get a bunch of Servants with Guts? Could Nightless Rose finally have a use?
Remembrance

That's not nearly enough guts.
If you wanted to gamble, there's Necromancy. Can randomly give guts any number of times with no upper limit...

Destiny 2's been taking all my time lately, but I did get lucky the other day on Jeanne rate-up and picked her up. My list of "to level" characters is ridiculous right now. All this half AP stuff and out of all of it, I got 1 Rider, 2 Caster, and a single Zerker monument. Thanks game.
Though I did get a single snake orb thing too, which was unexpected.
We need a fucking event badly in this game.

Note that Evade won't work because Arash has Invuln Pierce passive skill.

Used up my remaining 15 tickets in hopes for Vlad but no luck. Maybe I'll get lucky and get him during the new years gacha. I really like his design.

HOLY SHIT i dropped my final 30 prism and the fucking last card out of the ten was Waver!!!! Seeing that rainbow color during the animation I was sure it was gonna be some crap CE.
I feel content now with my stable of 5*s of Jeanne, Gil, Vlad, Altera, and Waver.

That is some good luck, congrats.
The rainbow orbs spinning means it's definitely a 5* servant, I think? It's just that it might be a 5* servant even without rainbow orbs.

Oh I see. What does the animation for a 5* CE look like?
Congrats on the pull, an amazing line-up you have there!
As for the animation for a 5* CE, it's nothing special (just what you normally get, not even gold orbs or anything).

Thanks! Seriously it's all thanks to Adeptrain who generously allowed me to adopt his amazing account.
...you probably have one of the best 5* lineups on GAF right there. I thought I was hot sh*t with 3 >.>

Looking at all the cool characters coming down the pipeline I'm sure that won't last long even if true. Plus it's just about having your favorite characters from the anime to play with!
Also doesn't help that i only have 80 points and can't even use more than two of them at once. -_-

I just rolled a bunch of servants that doubled my dragon fang needs to over 60. Plus I need to seriously stock on on crystals and lanterns.
Yeah, let's have some 1/2 AP free quests.

I actually need 1/2 AP free quests because I haven't done any of them and I should do them to get more quartz
I really don't understand why this game is moving so slow content-wise. There's SO much backlog they can work through, and while I'm sure they'd like to keep things on-track to sync up with the Japanese version when it was released, there's no reason they couldn't go faster than they are. We're actually moving slower, from what I can see, but I could be wrong on that.
I love the game, and won't be dropping it due to the slow pace (since I have other gacha games to occupy me while I wait), I can see a lot of people getting frustrated and just moving on. I'd hate to see this game die for a reason like that (not that it will, as the IP is popular enough to keep it afloat, even with a few players leaving).
I wish I could make use of the 1/2 AP Free Quests, I already completed them all.

LATIN, MATRIPEDICABUS, DO YOU SPEAK IT
I'll not be tempted to NP5 my Altria, no sir!
There's not really much more to add to what's already been said, but it looks like we have another disappointing week of content.
I'm sick to death of grinding daily quests for EXP cards to convert to mana prisms or pretending that I actually have a chance of getting a single material drop in even a full AP bar.
Even as a fan of the franchise I'm having trouble maintaining any interest and there's not even any servants worth pulling for currently. I'll keep logging in so if they ever get a move on with content I've not missed out on tons of resources, but the game is tedium exemplified currently. This content release schedule just can't hang with the improvements that have been brought to gacha in the last couple of years that are displayed in so many other games and if they stick to it for the sake of parity then the game deserves to fail.

Well they supposedly want us to "experience" the game like players in FGO JP have. That probably includes gaps in content, following content order like for like and so on. That's just setting up the game to fail in this gacha market tbh. I rather be overwhelmed with content that being drip-fed miniscule amount of content.
I wonder if the NA team has a say in this or is it strictly a directive from the overlords over in JP.
*high five* my interest in this wanes by the day. If I wasn't a huge sucker for the franchise I would probably have quit over a month ago.

I can't wait to spend the entire day farming Germania in a futile hunt for Chaos Claws.
I like to switch out my profile picture on occasion, but I'm sure 2B will eventually make a return.
Yeah, I'm sure the reasoning behind them releasing the content is as you say (to keep things in-sync with the way they were in the JP release), but I can't see that working out well in Global. In the Japanese version, you didn't really have anything to compare it to, since that particular version was leading the way. With the Global release however, we have the JP version to reference, and while it's not fair to expect us to get massive amounts of content at once (it does take a while to translate, and I'm sure they won't want us catching up with the Japanese version), I do think we could be moving a bit faster then we are. These constant breaks in-between events/story content are especially frustrating for us, since we know the potential content. It could very well be a DelightWorks issue and out of Aniplex's hands, that's entirely possible.
Whatever the reason, I do share the frustration of many, but I'll stick with this game until the bitter end, as I love the IP and it's enjoyable to me. I'll just designate the new few weeks to more material/Mana Prism farming, and hope the next update is the one many of us are waiting for.
Definitely hanging by a thread here. Still interested in sticking with it, especially since I've been fortunate enough to draw two 5*s, but I didn't expect how fast fatigue would hit me with half AP farming, and another week of nothing to do sounds miserable. Not even half as aggressive about making sure I'm being AP efficient.
Sort of ironic after how desperate I was to get back into the game when it was keeping me out, lol.

I'm not bothered with them taking their time as long as the translation is good. The first 3 story chapters were all over the place quality wise, whereas Moon Fest was excellent. I'm only playing for the story and the waifus characters anyway so the downtime doesn't bother me all that much.
Of course if they take the piss and the translation is still bad then that's a different matter..
