Another cool Fate game but...

[F4$hi0n$h0w]

Why do they all look 8-10 years dated? Like what is the problem in making a GOOD looking game for this series? They all do be looking like PS3 launch title.

Id rather have this than pay $70

How much is it for you? Regional pricing might be at work since it is 63$ for me.

I think you need to look at launch PS3 games. At worst, the model quality is on par with mid-life PS4 games. And you need to keep in mind that this is a musou-adjacent game. Having dozens of character models on-screen at once means that they have to be lower quality compared to something like the latest God of War.

It's good enough for weebs who only care about grimacing waifus and how many particle effects are on screen anyway. RIP Fate

End of life PS2 games look better than this trash.

The people who developed this game should be ashamed of what they shipped.

The Xbox 360 launch title Ninety Nine Nights had much better art direction than this game. That is also the only musou game I like.

That nearly 20 year old game looks better imo than this 2023 game.

Give NNN a good lighting engine and it would be good to go even today.

IMO this Fate game was a total cash grab. Everyone who worked on it was just collecting a pay check. No one put any effort in the development of this game.

At this point we should see entire towns being blown to bits by NPs, giant craters being made in the terrain. This is 2023. Instead every attack looks like someone is being slapped with a wet tissue. There is no physicality to the attack impacts. I can forgive that from a 2006 launch title but not from a 2023 game.

First of all, that game is aiming for a realistic art style rather than a stylized anime one. Not even remotely comparable. Second it may be a recording issue, but that game doesn't appear to be running at a stable 60FPS. Lower framerates allow for higher polygon counts and vice-versa. Third, have you actually played the damn game? There ARE craters for attacks where it's appropriate.

That game has aged better than I thought it would for something from 2006, but it in no way looks better. The realistic artsyle it shoots for is so dated it's obvious from the thumbnail. Also, the devs should be ashamed? Do you hear yourself? For doing what, exactly? Shipping the best reviewing Fate console game, ever?
