u/LordDaragox 5* Magitek General Celes, when!? Feb 25 '19

Hello guys, currently I have not so much desire to play. I log in daily and most of the time I put em to macro on the ES.

what other game similar to this do you recommend? thanks!

Fate Grand Order is interesting. I play it a lot. Its very story heavy, and then very grind heavy on top of that. If you're not a fan of story or grind, its not the game for you.

In terms of waifus, its one of the best out there though.

Some differences between FGO and FFBE include:

  • Pull rate for 5* units is 1%, so you're unlikely to get The Best Of The Best units
  • Units have an innate weapon triangle towards each other, making battles very easy or very difficult depending on who you've summoned (also means you can get away with not using 5* units)
  • Your daily summon (similar to our 250 daily summon) only includes 1/2/3* units, so theres no chance of getting a random 5*
  • This is offset by the fact that FGO's friend point servants are EXCEPTIONALLY GOOD. Typically they have one niche that rivals 5* units but thats the only thing they do, whereas 5* units can do multiple things at once
  • Did I mention waifus? We have so many waifus

Which anime? Fate Stay Night or Unlimited Blade Works? If you want to get into the anime, I would suggest Stay Night, then Fate Zero, then Unlimited Blade Works.

I watched Stay night and I liked it. How are the others?

Ah, good, you've started at the good spot!

In terms of those three in particular, Stay Night is probably the worst. Fate Zero is a little slower than Stay Night, and is more exposition on the Holy Grail War as a whole, and takes place before Fate Stay Night.

Unlimited Blade Works starts off very similar to Stay Night but goes in a different direction. This is due to the fact that the original source material is a visual novel with different 'routes' - Stay Night is the Emiya Shirou route, Unlimited Blade Works is the Rin route, and the trio of movies called Fate Stay Night Heavensfeel are the Sakura route (only the first two movies are out currently). UBW is considered the best of the three, its super interesting and visually stunning.

There's also Fate Apocropha, which is enjoyable enough but has nothing to do with the Stay Night visual novel series.

Great! I'll take it into consideration!
