Neglecting to play through SIN and not wanting to rush through it, so you effectively miss all of the most recent event
As of September this year, it’ll be 5 years since I first got into Fate/Stay Night by playing the original VN. Even if the series effectively ruined my life and made me sink a shameful and even worrying amount of wealth into the flaming pit known as gacha, I still feel like I kind of owe the series to a certain degree for making me into a better person (by this I mean cook. it made me a better cook.).
So kind of in honor of the media that shaped the last five years for me, I’m gonna try and make a conscious effort to begin updating this blog again, as well as @goodfateideas and @badfateideas. Thanks to anybody who stuck around through this long absence.
starting a gimmick blog, getting a nice following and then immediately dropping it like a bad habit
Gonna stream Scott Pilgrim vs the World tonight since it finally got that rerelease. Starting around 7 EST, and gonna go for a couple hours. twould be rad if yall could pop in
Alright, I’m finally getting around to doing something that i’ve been interested in doing for a while, I’m gonna stream!
The game is Bloodborne, I’m starting at 6:30 EST, and the goal is to defeat Rom the Vacuous Spider at Precisely 11:59:48 so we get to see the blood moon exactly when 2021 begins.
It’ll be a nice fun chill stream, I may have some friends joining me, I may also have to stop partway through cuz i’ve got limited storage space on this potato PC of mine, but that won’t get in the way of our goal of defeating Rom!!
Heyo mod here, sorry for dropping this blog like a bad habit, but It’d be awesome if you guys could check out my stream later tonight

Going back to the Salem Witch Trials and announcing to everyone you meet that you are “The Queen Witch”
wow i havent made a post since agartha
that means i have all of Shimousa and Salem to post about!!
actually now that i think about it nobody did anything in shimousa that was necessarily a “bad idea”
i mean murdering entire cities and kidnapping children are obviously bad ideas but i don’t really think that’s Fate exclusive
wow i havent made a post since agartha
that means i have all of Shimousa and Salem to post about!!

starting a pair of blogs on tumblr where u talk about good and bad ideas in the fate universe, gaining a decent bit of popularity, and then only updating them once every several months
on the subject of raita’s art i’m gonna go ahead and say he made my absolute favorite piece of FGO art to date

theres also issues about how bad the columbus twist is, how terrible fergus lily’s “development” is, and about a million and one other points, but honestly, i got most of my feelings out with the scheherezade rant, so that’s about it.
scheherezade
making scheherezade a servant, and then choosing to make her biggest character trait her fear of death, disregarding the fact that the very first thing she did in arabian nights was pull maybe literature’s first ever Katniss Everdeen, and volunteered to marry the king instead of her sister, an extremely selfless, and extremely dangerous thing to do
then because of that fear of death trait, you derail the entire story of arabian nights, so that it’s no longer about a brilliant and courageous woman standing up to a ruthless king, but instead just a fucking cowardly girl trying to survive, and nothing more.
I mean fuck, dude, do you even know a fucking thing about the actual plot of arabian nights or did you just hop on the wikipedia page for mythological l storytellers and picked out the first one that you thought people wouldn’t know, so you could take any fucking creative liberties you wanted? I’m guessing the fact that when Scheherezade was out of stories to tell, Shahryar just HAPPENED to become a better person and decided not to kill anyone on his own? cuz fuck, all Scheherezade ever wanted to do was not die! she couldn’t fucking do anything good or heroic or selfless, right?? god Fuck you. Fuck every writer who put their gruesome societal reject mitts on Agartha, fucking ruining one of the best characters of folktales, WHICH TO A LOT OF PEOPLE WAS THEIR FIRST EXPOSURE TO THE ACTUAL STORY OF ARABIAN NIGHTS, SO A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE GONNA THINK THAT’S JUST HOW SCHEHEREZADE IS!!
Did you realize your actions had consequences you dumb shit???? Did you realize that when you were in charge of writing a story for Fate/Grand Order, a game with millions of downloads, and a gigantic player base, that you were subjecting all of its players to your gross mischaracterizations of existing characters, even grosser misrepresentations of new characters, and every fucking fetish that you fucking tossed in just to keep it exciting!? No, of fucking course you didn’t, because if you did, you’d have spent even ten seconds researching the main antagonist of the chapter, or maybe even, i dunno if this is too radical for you, but making even a single sentence in the chapter Actually Good Writing??? God Fuck you, you goddamn piece of shit. If i ever meet the fuckhead responsible for this shit show, i will personally make sure they never write another fucking word for the rest of their life.
Making a Drake alter design that honestly kicks ass, but then making her actual character entirely two dimensional with a bullshit ideology that made absolutely no sense and had absolutely no depth, and still not making it an alternate skin or anything
