agartha has enough dumb poo poo in it (some dumb early jokes about astolfo/d'eon/davinci, super fetishy and weird about astolfo and d'eon in general, wu's design) that you don't need to make poo poo up to criticize it

It was true that it was one of the least liked singularities in japan though. In a popularity poll it was at the very bottom with only Septem and the Moon Goddess event being worse.

yeah agartha isnt very good at all and tbh i can totally get why you'd make a post giving people a heads-up about stuff like 'playing the amazon rape stuff mostly for comedy value because ladies forcing themselves on dudes!? hubba hubba!' and like half of what goes on with astolfo, but the post should actually be like, accurate. if its any consolation near as i can remember its literally the last time the game makes a lovely joke about da vinci? so theres that

It's a bummer since it sounds like it could've been interesting if it was well, good. e: also this being d'eon's major story chapter appearance vs astolfo having other content to fall back on

Ibram Gaunt posted:That tumblr post making the rounds is full of assumptions and also is extremely uneducated and thinks "Laputa" is a gendered slur lol. I mean, it is, the whole joke in Gullivers Travels was that the flying paradise is full of effete useless intellectuals and sexually frustrated women, Swift was fluent in Spanish and it wasn't a mistake that the place was named "the whore.". Don't think DW really knew that at the time though, everyone forgets that part because most people haven't actually read Gullivers Travels

But it's blown the gently caress up. https://www.reddit.com/r/grandorder/comments/6m7sw9/epic_of_remnant_ii_the_woman_of_agartha_section/ Scheherazade: What I offered up to the king in hopes of not dying was not just my stories. It was everything else I had. Of course--- including my body. Therefore, the name of La Puta is surely suitable for this conclusion! Ascend into the skies, glare down at the earth--- then fall, Laputa! Thou shalt become the destroyer of this world's reason, the city that is the fantasy of the end! That's it. That's literally everything on this subject.

Endorph posted:hint: the person leading the noble male resistance against the female empire is loving christopher columbus Hahaha gently caress no. Columbus is the Pen-ultimate final boss of the singularity. He is NOT anything close to being a good guy, he just happened to be on the side who didn't immediately try to kill or enslave you, and just charismatic enough to BS you into helping him. He fully intended to have you do all the heavy lifting so he could stab you in the back and take over. The game makes it clear that his Old World ideas are just as screwed up as every other faction in Agartha.

the best part about columbus is him talking up always staying determined and pursuing your dreams, and then gets completely salty and loses his poo poo when a random NPC does just that to stop him. dude is a massive two-faced hypocritic piece of garbo and I love him.

Columbus being a conniving hypocritical shitlord is one of the most historically accurate portrayals in Fate.

Endorph posted:To be fair, early on in the singularity he is putting on an act of actually being noble and the characters do buy it, and if you're the type to write that kind of post I get why you'd start skipping cutscenes fairly early on in Agartha. but that means you probably shouldn't make definitive statements about it, lol. I hope that the characters don't actually buy it wholeheartedly. After Shinjuku, I was really thinking the Chaldea gang had moved on from "OH NO, YOU BETRAYED ME?" to "yeah I kinda saw this coming" on the protagonist naivete spectrum

Welp R.I.P. all my Bond CE’s, they’ve completely disappeared from my inventory and second archive. I have no memory of feeding them to any other CE’s, I always double check that stuff.

Nate RFB posted:They really should have given it more than 3 days. Ugh I felt dumb, I did that for my main inventory but couldn’t see them. It never occurred to me that my second archive was oddly devoid of anything besides 3* CE’s, so I checked the filter and yep, there everything was. I blame burnout from the recent events, by the end of this one I was especially tired

I got 20 quartz for 100 login days and used my leftover currency to buy the poo poo to ascend Heracles again. A good day. Bring on the next banner, I have 3 10 pulls and 4 tickets saved up!
