The devs did say that Extella Link was not Extella 2
Now let's just ignore all the dialogue that makes absolutely no sense in Extella Link, like everyone saying that they never met Archimedes

Makes sense, Link always felt like a Mission-Pack Sequel.
Extella Link is more of an Interlude than a actual sequel.
I mean, I'm pretty sure there's less stuff to do in it, which is about the biggest cardinal sin a sequel can make.

Technically there's more missions and the like. There's so, so many missions you can do.
Buuuuut outside of the main story they're very very minimal on any sort of content besides something like "there's this dude doing a thing, stop it" at the beginning. Some of the missions are kinda clever in what you need to do, but.
It really hurts not having side stories for each of the servants.
But at least leveling and powering up your servants isn't horrible like in base Extella?

I did the developer's said Link was more focused on gameplay than story.
Which is great if you're into Musou games, I suppose.
@TPPR 10: People on reddit are also saying Production IG is gonna show some stuff about the Camelot movies/OV As/whatever.
BTW, they were the ones who did that animated flashback sequence in Kill Bill, weren't they?

insert commentary here
might be overreading but requiem's servant arenas, besides demonstrating the gradual commodification of fate's roster in increasingly narrow constraints for games, also work as a pastiche of ufotable and the specific audience that the zero adaptation and its like have created
The bits that specifically inspired this interpretation
It was playing through the climactic stages of an old match. From beneath the debris hurled high into the air by the merciless impact of a Noble Phantasm, a lone figure streaked forwards, low-slung and fierce. Judging by her impossible speed, she could only be a Servant - a knight, clad in armour of deep indigo. She leaped to avoid an arrow from the enemy that pursued her, and clung to the face of one of the many stone pillars that lined the arena.
In an instant, another slash closed in on her. The pillar sailed through the air, its base pulverised β but she was atop it now, and she was still standing. The programme replayed her acrobatics once more in slow motion for the viewers.
Her enemyβs power was spent, and in that moment she saw her opening. A single bound was enough to close the distance. Her sword whipped through the air, its thin blade shining with magical energy, and it sang fiercely as she drove it through her foeβs chest. It was a killing blow, with no trace of mercy.
Erice: Iβll never understand what enjoyment people get out of turning Servants into an exhibition. Donβt the fighters know theyβre just being turned into commodities to bring more spectators to the show?
Karin: You can call it an exhibition or a farce all you want, but the people whoβre in the arena, the people whoβre actually there β theyβre putting everything theyβve got into making it entertaining for us.
so in effect, televised matches with an emphasis on flashy fast combat and meticulous choreographed action achieved through careful editing for maximum impact with the aim of wowing spectators and bringing in more

I think it's just the natural conclusion of adding Servants into everyday life.
UFC matches already draw a humonguous crowd, why not add superpowers and get even more people in?

Apparently someone remembered Aoko, Alice, Hisui, and Kohaku exist
because they're getting merch for this month's Comiket
I forgive Wada for her horny crimes now.

At least half of the CCC designs.

Which ones?

Type-Moon: "Oh yeah we have franchises besides Fate"
Isn't the game itself very horny?
Aren't you, then, essentially begrudging as artist for doing her job AKA matching the art to the game that same art will be featured in?
Maybe he just doesn't like cheesecake to that degree.

I mean, going by her artist comments on her CCC servants in FGO, Wada's pretty horny.
Secret Signature
I only see reasons to love her, here.
Wada is a standout from the Nasubunch, I admit.

Heaven's Feel III Spring Song teaser
Main visual, which I really like for the narrative conclusion it lends to the posters and the film itself
Shocking Gun!
The best Fate game AKA Capsule Servants coming to phones.
Continue the bloodline, Fujimaru!
The posters for the Heaven's Feel Trilogy have been excellent. I also have to say, the final poster works well with either normal or true endings.

Like I said on the previous page, regarding spoilers, since some of the plot twists are well known, can we unmark spoilers for works released before Fate/Grand Order?

King of Anime
Not everyone gets into something at the same time and just because a twist is well known doesn't mean it's not a spoiler. I say that we should leave spoilers as is.
drunk bunny
Why would we unmark spoilers? There's no benefit to it. It keeps people new to the franchise unspoiled.

You might to keep the Newbie Boom and Gateway Series aspects of FGO in mind. For that reason, keep spoilers.

A cruel, sick joke is still a joke, and sometimes all you can do is laugh.

Extella Link is kind of a 1.5, depending on how you look at it.
Wake me up at your own risk.
