I may have taken one too many screenshots of LB3 lol (I mean I usually don't take scs so lol)
Akuta is a terrible Master and I mean that in the sense of not knowing how to make the most of her Servant's abilities. I'm sure she meant well and she also had her own objectives so she's okay as a character, I liked the take on her with the story and all, but man did it pain me to see the choices she made for battle. Also I was expecting to see more of Lanling Wang ): I breezed through that first half because I was super eager to see more of him but then he just. . And I guess that was done for the sake of the story but I don't know. I did like the story a lot aside from one or two parts that were a bit "xD?" to me.
I think he looks like a peacock for some reason. I gotta say the phone thing was extremely clever lol it caught me off guard too. In general I'm really really enjoying the Losbelt stories, I love seeing the different cultures and the way lives are different varying from LB to LB. Not necessarily that they're good, I wouldn't say they are really, but I love seeing it.

He will get brain damage. Good.

GalaxianExplosion · May 12, 2023 21:20:34

Oh, for sure. That's actually 100% for sure canon and you get to see it in her interlude (which is really funny lol, for me it's the top interlude along with Changgong's). I mean, they really did get to the point where Lanling Wang had to try assassination of all things, lol. (I mean, he's done tower raids before, just not assassinations necessarily. It was definitely a plot move moment.)
Tbh I don't really feel like there's too much of a moral component to pruning the LBs and idk why it's such a big thing with the rest of the fandom :') like yeah I feel bad but are we really the war criminals here? Am I missing something lol

Me saying Hinako was a bad Master and then probably proceeding to POV my Master characters horribly lol

SpecterTheGreat · May 12, 2023 21:28:39

WHY DID SHE SEND HIM IN FOR ASSASSINATION I SUFFERED FROM THAT
Mostly because I was surprised I had to fight him so many times fr it just looked like bad resource management. I'd like to get her in my Chaldea eventually because I liked her story, but I don't know if that'll ever happen bc I have other priorities and I don't pull on the standard banner. I'm slowly getting through all my interludes too (recently upgraded Reines uwu) but since I started LB4 today I might be sidetracked with that for a while (I am so ready to suffer but it's been a few arrows already and I am in love with this story so far).
I guess if you look at it with cold hard facts there's not much to it. They're histories gone wrong and it's our duty to right them, but I did suffer quite a bit with Gerda, especially with her but with the others too. I mean, it's a whole world ending. along with its people. The thing that sort of consoles me is that they don't suffer when they disappear, and since they don't realize it then that makes it a bit better. They'll live on in my heart.

Lol I probably shouldn't criticize either then haha
That said we don't have a LB to protect so maybe we're okay...?

GalaxianExplosion · May 12, 2023 21:31:27

to be fair I missed if that was his own idea or hers, because honestly I can imagine them as a pair having no brain cells at night.
I have a lil happy ending in my mind for the LB peeps lol (and I'm really hoping it'll turn out to be canon, even if storytelling-wise that'd be a horrible decision)

idk man I have at least 3 reputations to upkeep on this end lol

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · May 12, 2023 21:54:00

I think it was her idea because she showed up soon afterwards.
I'm not gonna ask about that for now because iirc you've finished all the released story so far and I want to continue playing through this part with as few spoilers as possible for now.

I'm sure you'll do fine. I have to worry about my 4 characters there too, I know I will mess up when I have to roleplay something intelligent.

GalaxianExplosion · May 12, 2023 22:49:45

Tbh I wouldn't be surprised if the two of them just have a thing where they show up for each other's bad ideas. Idk. xD
Honestly it doesn't spoil anything really but I'm not a fan of divulging any of my ideas in the first place, so works for me. Hehe hoho.

Dw, we can call each other out...I guess.

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · May 12, 2023 23:09:06

They're just friends like that xD
And speaking of their relationship that introduction scene at the start of the LB hit me hard. I have it all screenshotted lol ~~boohoo on me for spoiling my friend out of sheer emotion instead of ranting to you who had already played through the quests~~

Hmm I will ask you eventually. I'm too curious to remain silent abt that forever XD

As long as the criticism is constructive I guess I don't mind :') *cringes at self in advance*

GalaxianExplosion · May 12, 2023 23:13:12

and it's funny 'cause the only thing I really got out of that was "sHOW ME HIS WIFE"

dw I'm too much of a coward to say anything
But I will judge you on a private document (: (jk I don't do that either. Usually. Most of it is self-judgment.)

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · May 12, 2023 23:22:10

Idk I was just staring at his hands the art was so pretty

You can probably count on me forgetting (until I remember ;P)

*Is judged*

GalaxianExplosion · May 12, 2023 23:23:09

judgy judgy judge

I had a child murdery dream involving a Lancer that was not F/DA Lancer yesterday
The entire time I just remember thinking "Oh ho F/DA Lancer would not approve" (:

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · May 12, 2023 23:27:58

(: of course she would not approve
Now where is that Lancer so my Lancer can go beat them up

GalaxianExplosion · May 12, 2023 23:35:58

somewhere in my mindspace probably
I'm sorry but they're OP too

If it helps any I think they were redeemed[????] they did not actually kill the child but what they did probably constitutes physical torture so......(:?

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · May 12, 2023 23:38:07

Let me rephrase what I said in my earlier post she's Helge's Lancer not my Lancer technically

One of the few times I regret not having OP enough characters *sigh*

I don't think that redeems them

GalaxianExplosion · May 12, 2023 23:39:52

dw he can share

Idk I kinda can justify their actions but also can't,,, it's complicated

Also as a detail they would probably let themselves be beat up for it if the dream were canon lol. If that helps increase your opinion of them any. ~~it probably won't tho~~

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · May 12, 2023 23:44:07

Oh yay :D

;(

GalaxianExplosion · May 12, 2023 23:46:30

More mana the better ~~"why do you have so much mana, Grandma?" "all the better to beat Lancer up with my dear :D"~~

Is that a "Oh I see" smiley or a violent smiley

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · May 12, 2023 23:48:18

Got confused for a second on which Lancer you were talking about.
But also... Grandma... idk that sounds kinda weird to me xD I know the reference but, lol, still feels weird to call her that. I'd accept Aunt maybe.

I wonder

GalaxianExplosion · May 12, 2023 23:51:01

Oh I'm sorry. That wasn't referencing Germaine at all. xDD
and that's my bad, I totally forgot to specify which I was talking about lol. Mine is interesting in a different sort of way, I'll give them that.

A smiley of acceptance? :D

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · May 12, 2023 23:52:56

Ah, okay xD. Since it's just... Lancer, and Lancer, of course I'd get confused.

A smiley of acceptance it shall be because I can't stay mad at anything for too long

GalaxianExplosion · May 12, 2023 23:57:40

More specifically, I'm talking about the Lancer with a bow.

shall I give more details regarding their crimes then jk

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · May 13, 2023 10:57:45

*smile of confusion*

No

SpecterTheGreat · May 13, 2023 22:47:33

LB4 setting out to destroy my heart

GalaxianExplosion · May 13, 2023 23:48:31

As it should. (:

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · May 14, 2023 23:01:53

Vihan ):

GalaxianExplosion · May 15, 2023 00:34:47

We love Godjuna (: ~~GGaD!Galaxian has a personal vendetta against him, one day I will draw Galaxi punching him~~

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · May 15, 2023 00:40:35

We really don't
Please I just want to grab him and shake some sense into him, maybe add in a slap for good measure and see if he can bring back everything that disappeared

Rn I stopped at the part after we ally up with Lakshmi Bai, so we'll see how I progress this week.

GalaxianExplosion · May 15, 2023 00:43:49

Slap him silly, like jiggly putty

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · May 15, 2023 00:45:14

I'll slap the divinity right out of him, mark my words

Also I got stuck in the Grail Front with Lancelot lol help
Tomorrow (today for me) I'll try a fourth attempt if I have time

GalaxianExplosion · May 15, 2023 00:47:54

Tip: Actually use Lancelot.
Idk if it's actually a common mistake or something but I got through first try by actually relying on him as a meatshield (since he has Special Resistance and NP gain up from attacks). Using the free Guts really helped too. Then use Servants who can attack to pinpoint problematic enemy Servants
Also try retreating your Master when you have free moves so you don't get pwned right away (note that it's one move per turn not one move for the duration of the Grail Front)
Good luck :D

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · May 15, 2023 00:57:58

Hmmm okay. Two of my tries I got the pierce invul. buff so I could take down the enemies with more ease but it eats up too many moves and leaves the Master defenseless. And Lancelot just gets pwned in the first turn while I can't move the rest of my units so xD let's see how I fare with this new strategy.

Tbh idk if I'm just tired or if this Grail Front in particular is harder than the last one, because last time I was able to complete practically everything in one go while in this one I've lost several times on not only that part but also in a few of the previous ones.
