/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Asked on /a/'s buyfag thread as well, figured I'd try here too. Did anyone buy the FSN/Hollow Ataraxia 10-year anniversary limited edition recently? The one with the physical disc from 5 years ago, not the digital re-release they did this year. There are some new copies on Amazon.jp for $400+, just wanted to get an idea if that seems to be the going price these days, couldn't find anything new anywhere else.

Why has Fate never had a professional localization? Isn't it overwhelmingly popular?

Why is FSN so popular?
It was badly paced, the writing was shitty, the female cast was pretty mediocre as a whole, the fights were nothing great, the plot was nothing amazing either.
Fate was basically average from the beginning to the end, Saber's past and conflict was full of wasted potential, her relationship with Shirou fucking sucked, the last battle could have been far more awesome.

UBW was probably the best route. But it felt really thin, Caster's route was pretty mediocre, the revelation about Archer could have been far more brick shitting, Shirou's conflict was well portrayed though and Lancer stole the show.

HF was a joke, felt like Nasu completely failed to bring out what he wanted and that it was only used to tie a few loose ends.

One somewhat good route doesn't make a game, plot wise or emotion wise, FSN just didn't deliver at all.

Which is the worst Type-Moon franchise?
