I've been waiting for this confirmation. That Merlin 'perserved her mindset' and crossed a threshold she never should have.

Merlin's story is over, as is the story of Camelot.

The knights are dead. The castle is ruined. The Britain they worked for is gone. Everyone should have accepted it. Her counterpart accepted it.

And yet, here ProtoMerlin stands, refusing to accept it. Sending Arthur out for one last quest. Waiting for that promised deus ex machina. That in Britain's great hour of need, Arthur and Camelot and those dreamlike days will return.

And when Draco, her opposite and enemy calls her on it, she actually drops her smile, but has no retort.

Because this is the one thing she can't make light of.

Oh, Protomerlin's FA looks so pretty. I'm so glad that even if it's a summer event they didn't go for the usual route and made her look ethereal.

lady avalon calling the listener onee-chan as fanservice.... a rare fgo w

#i will thank fgo this once. protomerlin is probably my fave ayako kawasumi role she's so good #some comments were like. i really want male version :^( like. mayhaps don't give them (fgo devs) any ideas

i finally got around to doing this event’s challenge quest

how’s that Evil alignment working out for ya, Douman?

#bearless sigurd simulator #Astraea had 500% overcharge here so that’s +200% damage #i’d call this easy but in fairness i’m using Castoria/ProtoMerlin/Perfect Astraea #so it’d take some real horseshit to make it not easy

things i've gathered from twitter so far given by the nasu and takeuchi interview:

most of this was taken by @GutsACS on twitter (so big credit to them)

they used machine translation so there may be inaccuracies

read under the cut for infos on the main story, new summer event and game development

main story infos

koyanskaya ended up the most impactful servant to takeuchi, originally she was meant to be only one character but they wound up splitting her into light and dark

they said they cannot comment on warrior monk and johanna appearing again in the interview — NPCs do have a place in the story as characters but not everyone can be implemented is what they say, but they do want to respond to people's feelings for these characters

WADARCO considers koyan of dark her "ultimate" design

roland's game data was ready ever since his old NPC interlude cameo, they just didn't find the right time to implement him

young moriarty was originally not planned for traum, takeuchi said he wanted it and it happened

lb7 is "simpler" than lb6 but still very exciting and they want to surprise the players

nasu says lb7 is a lot like singularity 7 in its purpose and what it means for part 2

they've been working on what comes after lb7 since last year and takeuchi now has "finally settled on a timeline"

according to nasu lb7 will not answer all mysteries of arc 2,but with it you'll be more likely to finally grasp the outline and start to see the solution

nasu said he cannot say what comes after lb7 yet (so no answer wether there'll be a lb7.5)

however he asks players to remember that back at lb5 he said "finally one third is over" and "this is not the half of it" and then smiles at the interviewer?

according to nasu there's two different options for fgo after the lostbelt arc ends: 1. chaldea's storyline continues from part 2 or 2. chaldea's story ends in part 2 and a new story begins

he personally wants option 1, but it depends on the player base

summer event infos

3 SSRs are planned for this summer event

the theme is an amisement park in the arctic circle

nasu thinks some servants will be expected this year, but some will be unexpected

nasu says the theme is a resort with no extra subtheme (so no ServaFes kinda thing)

in regards to protomerlin, he calls the merlins an exchange (he let arcade use her for their story, but thinks now it is time to get to use her in the mobage

takeuchi says there is no significant narrative force with her showing up in this event in regards to the later story

nasu is already stressing about the themes for the next two summer events

Game infos

takeuchi and nasu mention that the switch to lasengle has allowed them to finally start fixing lrg development issues they've faced since the beginning

they started working on changes during lb6

according to them the changes are still recent so you might not see the impact just yet but it will become evident over time

nasu mentioned something about these improvements for fgo to be able to continue for a long time

takeuchi says that if they didnt do it they wouldn't be able to continue fgo to the end

takeuchi wanted append skills at the start of the lostbelt but the development environment made it so it was impossible to do so by then

nasu was worried they might ruin the game balance in the adjustments,but it wad unanimous the game was outdated and in a rut, so they needed to make changes and we'll see that continue to take shape

they felt grail casting was nevessary 'cause supply isn't keeping up with demand denandas servants & therefore peoples' faves increwse in number

nasu wanted casting so it would feel like you made something rather than received it

for the super recollection quests, they are working on making cernunnos as a boss more balanced

they want to implement koyanskaya's lostbelt outfits (lb1, 3, 4 & 6)

kanpu wants to make party formation easier

the next grailfront will take longer to complete than previous ones

Time to make final bets on anni servants

- I think it would actually be a little disappointing to have Rasputin since we know he’s coming eventually so not much surprise factor there

- ProtoMerlin is a good guess but considering that Anni and Summer are back to back + revealing Summer ProtoMerlin before actual ProtoMerlin seems like… a off marketing decision

- I want Galahad the most so some bias here but it is likely considering the shield motif of this year’s anni and how we’re rolling into the finale + Mash’s self growth in lb6

- a good other bet would be Tiamat, but theres also Arcade’s exclusivity marketing tactic to think about

- Goetia lol.

- Arcureid hype has been rising these past few days so thats a contender i didnt see coming and I dont know how to feel about that

- SOLOMON

#fgo #fate grand order #i will bet on #Galahad #(has the Anni servant ever been male?) #(Holmes and Muramasa were NYS right?)

How Pretender Class apparently works

Vortigern: So I'm the only member of this super edgy new class. Those who have given false representation, deceiving and misleading others to do great deeds. Not a fake or counterfeit, but someone who deceives even the soul until more power and greater achievements than the real thing remain—

ProtoMerlin: ...

ProtoMerlin: ...

ProtoMerlin: I'm Lady Avalon. Otherwise known as "Not-Merlin". I'm totally and completely Not-Merlin from this world. I'm not actually going to disguise myself or anything. This class is almost as easy to qualify for as Grand Caster.

oberon nendoroid preorders start tomorrow; don't know whether to preorder from goodsmile or not, last time with protomerlin they took four months after release to finally change the shipping to ems instead of japanpost (which doesn't ship to certain countries at the moment)

#i'll need to see what it costs on different shops. goodsmile does have cheap shipping but no other discounts #with protomerlin they held her for 4 mnths before realising that the war is not ending and that the shipping needs to be changed #honestly my bad for living next to russia. tho they're still shipping to estonia?? for some reason. i should just move there tbh

[vampirerite]

im making the tough decision to skip constantine and charlie to save for sen no rikyu and the skadi/protomerlin/douman/asclepius clusterfuck

#skeletxt #this may be temporary madness based on my fucked up nap that somehow gave me hiccups but. something ive been thinking about

[lunethary]

i love your artstyle !! have you ever drawn protomerlin/lady avalon?

thank you♥ i mostly have wips and sketches of her, she's so amazing and cute... i must make some time to finish my drawings of her hehe

[mako-neexu]

protomerlin still gets refered to beast of the planet?

#ahh i forgot fou doesnt exist in arcade too...right??
