So, I thought we should create a thread for the latest entry into the Type-Moon family. Don't know much about it, but I saw Lancer as a Caster and immediately decided that it has my interest. This spells fanfic fodder.

So, I'm just gonna bump this thread, since we've learned quite a bit more;

Saber:
[video=youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCjMABqWdEM[/video]
Consensus seems to be she's Attila.
There's also the Saber Lily (the Princess of Knights) and I think Joan of Arc (probably Ruler).

Lancer:

Pretty clearly Scatach, who's sure to have some interesting scenes with Caster Chuchulainn.

Archer:

Consensus is that this is Arjuna.

Rider:

This is apparently Yoshitsune. That costume, though. She's barely wearing anything.

Berserker:
No video as of yet. He's shown talking about Nero and calls her his cousin, though. In all likelihood he's Caligula.
Berserker 2:

Clearly Darius III, with how he mentions Iskander and looks like the dude from 300.

Caster:

There's some doubt about who he's supposed to be, but as far as I've seen, the theories are the Mad Hatter, Faust and Mephistopheles, Guy Fawkes, or, the greatest hero of all: Johnny Depp.

Assassin:

Hyde and Jekyll. Also appeared in Prototype as Berserker.

Shielder?:

Rejected heroine from the original VN, but will make an appearance here, apparently. No real theories about who she is.

So I noticed this thread and thought I'd bump it, partly to see if how many people here on TFF are playing Grand Order, and because I had some Servant thoughts I had an urge to share and this seems like the place to do it.

First, there was a fridge brilliance that I realized about Jack the Ripper as Assassin. It's stated that the only Heroic Spirits that become Assassins are the Hassans because an assassin is supposed to be unknown while Heroic Spirits are supposed to be famous, so the only way to get around that is to be the unknown killers whose name the word assassin comes from. But Jack can get around that because Jack the Ripper is simultaneously perhaps the most famous serial killer in history, while also being someone that there is no actual solid information on, a killer who is well known while at the same time being completely unknown. Not particularly useful or relevant, just something that came to me as an interesting thought.

Second, since I believe Avenger is part of the list of leaked Servants (and even if he isn't, I would expect him to show up at some point), I was thinking about how he might function. For starters, I can imagine his ascension art going from him being a faceless, formless shadow to eventually appearing as the Avenger we see in Hollow Ataraxia. Then as for a concept for his function: he eats other Servants. Something like he can't gain levels from experience cards, only from other Servants, or you have to use Servants as materials to ascend him. But he is, to his core, an anti-Servant unit. Does bonus damage against any Servant or spirit enemy, but no specific class strengths. As for his stats, I thought of him as being, at first glance, the absolute worst 5 star possible, with attack and HP at level 90 that's lower than most 4 stars at level 80. The catch is, he's also the only Servant with no stat cap; Avenger can increase his attack and HP by killing Servants in battle, so that, given the investment, all other Servants' stats pale in comparison to his.

Not that I imagine anything like that would actually get implemented, just a fun little concept I threw together and wanted to share.

I tried to play the game and even got an Jeane, but I just couldn't keep up with it. I like the lore and some of the servant designs, but when I play the game I just think I could be playing something more fun in my 3DS.

I'd love to play the game but they took the story translation down and I cant read japanese. also all that grinding while also having to search what exactly I'm getting even means is a massive hassle, so I'm just waiting on either an official or unofficial translation but I'm not holding my breath for the first one

Currently have two 5 stars (Tesla and Brynhildr) and two 4 stars (Alter Lancer and Saber Lily), the time investment isn't as demanding as I feared but the grinding for ascension materials is downright annoying.

Honestly, the friends I know that play it and I don't even usually bother with grinding ascension items. We just wait for them to be offered as a reward in an event. It usually just comes down to deciding which item is most valuable at the time.
