Do you mean story, gameplay or the gatcha? Or do you mean the metagame bs that makes 90% of the fans put down 80% of the servants because they aren't someone else? Each of those is a legitimate topic of discussion worth it's own thread.

I think the issue with GO, fundamentally, is that it's basically a waifu collection game with a story attached. The story is actually not bad, but they also don't make any actual money from that. They make money from people whaling for their waifus.

That's only really a point against the mobile game model. Ultimately it's not responsible for any of the actual problems or ridiculous choices made in Service of any of the mentioned topics. Other games have the same model with a far less bullshit gatcha for example.

In regards to the game and story itself, anyone else think it's bullshit that Galahad has a magic shield? Dude didn't defend for shit as i recall.
