Gaming Fate/Extra |OT|

About

The world is set in a school called Tsukumihara Academy, a fictional place existing with an artificial environment called the Moon Cell. There, the Moon Cell orchestrates a replication of the Holy Grail War using a system called Serial Phantasm or SE.RA.PH, which handles the summoning of Servants. Servant data is taken from the Automaton, a spiritual computer system built on the lunar surface by a pre-human civilization and discovered by humans in the year 2032. The Automaton has monitored and recorded all occurrences on the Earth (including the activities of human heroes) since time immemorial.

Each of the 128 participants in the war must duel the other Masters in a place called the Arena, where failure results in deletion from both the real and digital worlds. When only one remains, the "Holy Grail" shall grant the victor's wish.

No sleeping tonight i guess >>

 

[Paarish]

[prowler]

you don't need to play the VN to play this.

 

[pokefloote]

Do want.

This.

AFAIK it's not connected to any other Fate title plotwise, except for some references perhaps. You can kind of play it as an introduction to Fate i guess.

Say, is there a trailer out? Any gameplay details? Heard it played kind of similar to Persona.

 

[prowler]

it's basically a rock, paper and scissors game.

There's no English trailers or videos but there's obviously Japanese ones up on YouTube.

I honestly have no idea what to say about the battle system. At one hand it seems like a laugh on the other it sounds somewhat random.

 

[wafflestick]

woooooooooooooo hyped up ;D

 

[prowler]

currently downloading.

 

[Creqaw]

Currently downloading, slow though.

 

[Gundam Eclipse]

Oh shit, its out?
Time to go on a search spree~

 

[prowler]

Currently downloading, slow though.

haha must be because it's new and everyone is trying to get it.

 

[kupo3000]

Caster is suddenly a kawaii kitsune.

 

[Gundam Eclipse]

Guess its not possible to ask for the file name, right...?
If asking for file name is against the rules, just ignore this >>

 

[Paarish]

you don't need to play the VN to play this.

I know but I would like to familiarise myself with the characters and setting and what-not.

 

[prowler]

So what servants are people picking?

Obviously I picked Archer. :3

 

[Gundam Eclipse]

Planning to go Saber > Caster > Archer
Archer and Caster MIGHT switch, dunno >>
Aren't the servant choices basically difficulty levels btw? That's what i heard anyway.

 

[prowler]

I guess but there is a difficultly option at the very start, unless that was put in my Aksys and not present in the Japanese release since it only said Normal or Easy and you know, Japanese devs hate the player.

 

[emigre]

I can't help but feel the inclusion of English voice acting, would have made this game better.

EDITED to be more clear not idiotic like it previously was.
