Just Musashi, or....

[Lestrad]

Curious if it's been said if there will be other playable servants (either individually or as part of a party) or is it going to be 100% Musashi?

They have shown that Cu Chulainn (lancer), Arjuna (archer), and one of the alter ego of Tamano Mae (a rider in this case) as well as a few others will be playable as individual characters. Here's some footage of Cu Chulainn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wk9WknIRIJM
It's more than just him popping in to use his noble phantasm too.

Oh and ofc your saber class servant that you summon is playable too, which i'm sure you already know.

Nice. Maybe there's hope for Ruler yet...

Well, Gilgamesh is in the game as a ruler class servant. Unless you mean Jeanne, in which case...we do have her alter so there's that at least? I really don't get why people like Jeanne alter. But if you were referring to Jeanne ruler, then I agree, I hope we get her too.

I suppose "avenging angel" Jeanne is better than nothing. It's not terribly hard to believe that someone would have a chip on their shoulders after being burned alive.

That's not really Jeanne. Jeanne alter is just a creation of Gilles De Rais wish upon the grail. She is purely a manifestation of a deranged man's wish and never existed in the throne of heroes. She then later, through pure hatred alone, was able to manifest herself as someone that can be summoned. Basically, she is not actually connected to the real Jeanne in anyway shape or form, with the exception of looking like her. Jeanne, like Gilgamesh, can't be corrupted.

What do yo mean 100% Musashi? she is not even your servant. Have you at least watch ANY trailer or gameplay video?

[Lestrad]

Probably because she's tsundere dialed up to 11.

And yes, I did know Alter's background, that's not really what I meant. I meant that Alter simply comes across as the answer to what would have happened if Jeanne became an avenging angel/onryuu of sorts and hunted down everyone tied to her execution as divine punishment, rather than just simply accepting her horrific death and getting over it.

We still have no confirmation on who she really is. They purposely didn't name her yet.
