When it comes to FGO and Fate in general it is important to realize that history, religion and mythology are a basis for whatever story is told. These tales, regardless of origin, will be adapted to whatever story that is being told. It is its own universe with its own versions of these events, some things will be the same, some things will be different, and at the end of the day it's something that shouldn't be taken too seriously. Of course if someone isn't comfortable with certain changes/interpretations that is completely understandable as well. That being said I do very much appreciate the effort that the writers tend to put into a lot of these characters. Their presence in Fate has allowed me to learn a great deal more about the history and mythology of various cultures around the world that I otherwise wouldn't have, and this was no exception. So thank you for sharing what you know and I'm excited to learn more when I can
I said it before and I will say it again. If people get upset over an artists work and the way they choose to interpret something, then its the problem of the person who gets upset. Also Kali and Durga look really good, like FGO didn't have to go this hard, they put more effort in Kali's boss fight than they did on the entire Scandinavian lostbelt and thats saying a lot.
Aye, nice to see another Indian player and a youtuber at that. Tbh, I'm completely fine with anyone from India being in the game, coz one it's ficiton, two, F/GO gives a lot of respect to it's characters.
Regarding Durga's stoic demeanor, according to her FGO profile, she does feel things like affection and kindness, but she just thinks that it's part of Parvati's job to display those, not hers. She was born for a particular mission, extermination of vile demons, and she tries to take it as seriously as she can. As for number of arms, I can only guess that Durga chooses not to force such a change to her human vessel's form, while Kali doesn't care enough to be nice about it. Also apparently (I don't know how reliable what I read was) Kali is portrayed with either four arms or ten arms, with ten arms being more common for her Mahakali form. Technically she should also have ten heads and ten legs, but one-headed depictions can be found. I can't tell if those are part of historically accepted depictions or just a modern trend. As an example there is Y.G. Srimati's painting of Mahakali, kept in Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Yea, you're right about Mahakali. From childhood the Kali that I have been accustomed to is the Kali with four arms. During Diwali a lot of clay idols of Goddess Kali can be seen everywhere and they all used to have 4 arms.
I am from Latin America and all the Latin American Servants represented I loved them all and they were respected, that is, people who are upset that their gods or heroes are put in the game should better limit themselves to commenting I didn't even know anything about religion, legends, gods and heroes from other places without being put into the game, that is, they give us the doors of everything and we must search for ourselves about the historical character / god / legend I am still waiting fo kings hehehehe
I'm surprised from the disclaimer at the beginning. I thought something disturbing will be shown before I read it. If we are living in the same world as FGO then it's no wonder kirschtaria wants to remake this world from scratch.
when she puts on the red clothes she roughly says: I have come to report to you of change of attire (referring herself as some sort of anti-evil specialized weapon unit), at times to exterminate we must be able to mingle within the masses. I hope this doesn't look weird on me."
After Sati gave up her Life, the Kama Lore begins. Kamadeva who shot Shiva with his Arrow to make him fall in love with Parvati was burned by Shiva's third eye.
A little fun fact, that's also mention in the chapter, Durga can be summoned into any class.( Moon cancer and Foreigner might be an exception) She also Full countered Medusa np like nothing
You know, I never cease to be amazed, we always learn something new from the FGO. Thank you very much for the explanations, I really learned something new and it was interesting. P.S. I wouldn't mind if Kali stepped on me
To note sometimes the fate characters aren’t really following the actual source (though that happens alot) Such as Morgan who’s the lostbelt version same with qin shihuang So the black moon thing might be similar to the thing we see in rasputin’s noble phantasm
I believe that the white hair is a trend with all deities from the Hindu pantheon. The Babylonian deities all share the same characteristic of having blonde hair & red eyes, as shown by Ereshkigal and Gil (since he's 2/3 god). Ishtar is different because I believe they mentioned that Rin (her vessel) has more control over Ishtar as opposed to Eresh. I think the same can be said for Parvati-ma, and why her hair is still purple; Sakura still has some more control over her body. As for Kama, I know someone said it's because Kama is summoned into the body of dark Sakura, which could be the case, but Arjuna Alter's hair is also white, and he's the amalgamation of basically the entire Hindu Pantheon. Along with this, his hair no longer remains white throughout his ascensions, as he gains more humanity. TL;DR: Durga-ma's hair could be white because she's inhabiting dark Sakura, but I think it's because all the deities in the Hindu Pantheon have white hair.
Mahamaya is another manifestation of adi shakti/mahadevi, the supreme goddess, often considered the same as durga/kali. From what i understand, mahamaya is the shakti associated with the universe or illusion of reality. Now, I could be wrong, its a bit complicated. You can read up more on this in Sri sri Ramakrishna kathamrita
Looks like I have to enter this world of Android type online games. 😊 Actually, I don't know anything. Please give me a explain what type of games are they. I have also seen lord shiva and other goddess like this before. They are really cool. Please introduce this to me.
It's a gacha game. However FGO isn't only just a gacha game but it has a rrally good story. Have you watched Fate Stay Night? This one is related to that. It's the same franchise.
@@QuincSay Seen many times never started one. I mean NieR Automata, Battle Angel Alita manga and other movies, anime, games and all.

On a different topic OP, are you playing from US or foreign country or from India? If you're playing from India I'd like to know how you're dealing with the payment issues for special offers like lucky grab bag or new year's valentine's anniversary or Halloween summoning gucha rolls which needs payments.
I'm playing from India. For buying SQ (for the GSSR) I have a US Playstore Account through which I buy the SQs. Also I use a credit card since debit cards never worked for me.
@@QuincSay ok but creating an US playstore account needs creating a US gmail account first and to do that you got to have a US based telephone or mobile phone no otherwise they're not allowing us to do that. Do you have any suggestions regarding that?
I'm jewish and fate changed the most famous king of our culture by giving him green hair and his son is evil and solomon's wife has animal ears and tail. And yet, non of my friends or I care. Though it is cool to see a king from my culture be evil in a video game
Yea, I also like to see people from my country's legends in game. I've also seen a lot of people from my country who are okay with it or doesn't care. But there will always be the section who gets offended so nothing we can do about it.
I'm glad Ascension 2 exists.
It seems the video quality only goes up to 360p. not sure if it is intentional or just on my side but i just wanted to inform you.
Oh I think, it's probably still processing. It happens sometimes. It'll go back to higher quality very soon.
Same
Cool reaction video, I liked it :)

Yea, I'm of the same opinion as well. I've learnt so much about so many different cultures, history and legends because of FGO.
I said it before and I will say it again. If people get upset over an artists work and the way they choose to interpret something, then its the problem of the person who gets upset.
Also Kali and Durga look really good, like FGO didn't have to go this hard, they put more effort in Kali's boss fight than they did on the entire Scandinavian lostbelt and thats saying a lot.
True. I've always seen a lot of love for Indian characters in FGO and I've always appreciated that.
Aye, nice to see another Indian player and a youtuber at that. Tbh, I'm completely fine with anyone from India being in the game, coz one it's ficiton, two, F/GO gives a lot of respect to it's characters.
Yea same for me as well. Nice to see more Indians playing the game.

I am still waiting fo kings hehehehe
Yea, I would love a few Kings from my country as well. There's a few well known Kings so hopefully someday.
I'm surprised from the disclaimer at the beginning. I thought something disturbing will be shown before I read it. If we are living in the same world as FGO then it's no wonder kirschtaria wants to remake this world from scratch.
Just for precaution. Nothing really serious happened so I decided to put that in so that nothing serious happens.
@@QuincSaybetter safe than sorry
the fact that Durga/Kali NP is 8 Hit Counts and AoE NP Is mind blowing, it would be very hard to NOT Loop with that even with F2P Setup
Yea. I saw videos of her after this. She loops effortlessly
when she puts on the red clothes she roughly says: I have come to report to you of change of attire (referring herself as some sort of anti-evil specialized weapon unit), at times to exterminate we must be able to mingle within the masses. I hope this doesn't look weird on me."
I see. Thanks for translating
After Sati gave up her Life, the Kama Lore begins. Kamadeva who shot Shiva with his Arrow to make him fall in love with Parvati was burned by Shiva's third eye.
I see, so it was after that the Kama situation happened.
The 4th Ascension multiple lotus reminds me of 108 lotuses we use to worship her in Durga Puja
Yea. That was probably their intention behind adding them.
32:42, thank you for this, this is the same point I have been making
i once saw some people saying that "it should have been me not shiva meee" cuz kali stepped on shiva nah bro those guys too downbad 💀
Yea. A lot of them are kids so I just ignore. The comment section in Twitter is wild nowadays.
@@QuincSay yeah they dont know if it was them there ashes wouldnt even remain lol
@@omdhatrak3106 I think that is the intention
Her hair is white because she is using dark sakura as vassal just like kama
Oh I see. That's explains it.
A little fun fact, that's also mention in the chapter, Durga can be summoned into any class.( Moon cancer and Foreigner might be an exception) She also Full countered Medusa np like nothing
That actually makes so much sense, since she is a wielder of so many weapons.
6:18~6:28 this clip has a lot of meme potential
Haha

Try to see for a Servant's hit count on face cards and NP. Her hits are Crazy BTW.
Yea. Saw some videos as well. Definitely the best Archer AOE Arts lopper
Nice video ❤😊
Thanks
@@QuincSay how much Duryodhan you have
I won't be summoning her. I feel confused about it kinda questions my faith as well.
