I want to play a game with Archer.

Something based on maybe his time as a Counter Guardian. You could have flashbacks to when he was just Emiya Shirou, working past the Grail War he participated in up to the day where he makes the pact with the World.

Gameplay would probably be something like Assassin's Creed with its combo system, except not so retarded. You'd be able to instantly switch between weapons for combos, and defeating bosses would necessitate using weapon strategy.

Maybe once we fight through and see what he faced, we won't have such a downward view of Archer.

Well, it'll never happen, but it'd be nice.

There's a game in FHA where u can choose to play as Saber, Lancer, Archer, Rider or Caster in chibi mode and you race/kill the rest of the Servants in 3 minigames, and then teaming up to fight Berser-Car at the end.

Huh, fighting as Shiki would be so borked, though. Lines and dead.

My other thought was to have a game where you played as Gilgamesh, except before he became a hero. This'd be after the snake stole his potion of immortality. Instead of bothering with that, he'd continue his quest of possessing all the treasures of the world.

So you'd basically go around beating people and stealing their weapons to throw into your vault. Gameplay would be like some kind of beamspam fighting, except you'd organize your weapons in your vault beforehand for patterns. If necessary, Gilgamesh could fight up close swapping out weapons with every strike.

Destroy your enemies while calling them mongrels, take that which belongs to you, and be prettier than their women.

And laugh a lot.

And you wouldn't be able to use Ea. That'd go against Gilgamesh's modus operandi. You'd have to take you time building up your arrogance enough by playing around with the enemy before finally finishing your opponent off. The hard part would be keeping yourself alive due to arrogance.

I think part of it was he wanted to see what Shirou thought of him. If Shirou was okay with him, then he wouldn't have gone through it because he could have made sure Shirou wouldn't have gone down his path. But since Shirou wasn't okay with him, well, he wasn't going to listen and Archer figured he was going to be stupid so go ahead and try for the paradox.

>> No.1652727

Archer has to kill Shirou himself to cause the paradox. Caster killing Shirou does nothing.

They seemed to respect each other, just Lancer didn't like how Archer operated: ie, no honor, cheating like a mother fucker with the tracing etc.

And I think Archer didn't like Lancer for the whole stabbing him in the chest thing.

Archer would've died in the first battle had Shirou not interfered before Lancer used Gae Bolg.

Instead of like Assassin's Creed, it'd work more like that game I can't quite recall the name of, where you bounce around as a ninja trying to get a hit in before you're hit yourself. The one you basically have to be perfect at moving around or you're dead.

My memory is shit tonight. I know what I'm thinking of, but I can't name it.

It's his own fault. He could've easily killed Ilya in Fate during the Berserker battle, but he chosed to stick with his Shirou/pedo ways. And he chosed to go against the Shadow in HF instead of sticking with his own agenda because it was his duty. So much for hating his own ideals and being a counter guardian.

Kotomine used a seal to prevent Lancer from fighting a battle to its completion over the long term, but that probably had the same effect as Rin's seal did on Archer: it probably only reduced his combat modifiers a bit if he attempted to go all out.

It obviously didn't prevent him from going all out.

Kotomine might have even put in a clause that Lancer could go all out if the enemy knew what heroic spirit he was, like Archer figured out and like Saber did, too.

Well, in HF Archer realized that Shirou would not become him. There would be no point into killing his younger self there. So he protected Rin, Ilya and Shirou from Dark Saber, True Assassin and The Shadow. Oh, and probably had to cut off his own arm to give it to Shirou as well.

Well, if the command is "Don't kill anyone" then it's easily bypassed.
He would only disobey if he purposely attempted to kill anyone.
On the other hand, if he really thought that whoever he was facing could probably survive a hit, then he's not technically disobeying.

And really, if that's the case, the command is pretty useless.

What, you mean the end where servant Archer is reconciled with his past self, but fades away into oblivion, while the spirit Archer in the throne of heroes will forever burn with madness and self-loathing, always desiring the chance to go back and erasing himself from existence and never finding peace?

It's not that hard.
Heroic spirits remember their life when they are summoned. but if they were too be summoned again in a Grail War, they would not remember the previous one.
Archer who is used as A guardian, remembers the fact that he had to do clean-up work, but when he enters the Throne and is summoned as A heroic spirit, THAT will not be recorded.

Saber is an exception, since she hasn't died.
She remembers even after being summoned, but since she is not a SPIRIT(since she is alive), she cannot turn into Spirit form.

>> No.1653794

>>1653774
This. People generally fail to realize that once they disappear Servants will completely forget everything they've experienced. They were copies to begin with. So if Rider dies Medusa will not ever remember Sakura, if Caster dies Medea will not even know who Kuzuki is, etc. Even Gilgamesh, once his corrupted body disappears, will forget about Saber.
Saber is the only exception and actually keeps the memories of Shiro in her historical self, which is the whole point of the Fate route.
