glad you enjoyed the game as much as i did. i know little about fate, but extella link was solid.
Chelline R. Did you play the umbral star? Cause if you did you would notice all the improvements that have been made in link. Improved graphics, the removal of the (IMO) boring extella maneuver system that was replaced with servant skills in this game, overall combat is much more fast paced and satisfying, some QOL improvements and 10 added servants. I do agree that the game is pretty damn easy but so was the first one, but even with that I’m having way more fun in this, I still like the umbral star and I think the story is better there, but the gameplay in link is just so much more fun. Also I feel like this is more of an expansion than a sequel. hopefuly the story in the next game is similar to how it was in the umbral star.
VaSH yeah i find umbral star’s story much more interesting and well done. Here, the story routes add so little plot points all the routes are pretty much the same unlike altera’s arc
I don't know anything about fate. I just like musou like games.
ZMangz // So does the serie end with this game? Is this the finale?
Can somone explain me how to begin the Fate serie!
If they don't have a swimsuit costume for Astolfo I'm going to be very upset.
Sam Vimes upset is an understatement
It's DLC
They do
Why ar yu geh?
If you want to get into fate I warn you be prepared to get a phD in both our history and the nausuverse history, you wont even have a choice itll make you become a history buff lol
I hated history class but fate made me appreciate history.
Fate will make you learn a lot about history and myths/legends, but it will also make you think of these figures from human history as they are presented in the nasuverse and not IRL.
I can never see King Arthur as a man again because of this series and i love it.
Do be warned almost 99% of historical figures are actually women
Gotta admit, this is the first Musou game where I actually like ALL the characters
The Fate series started with a visual novel so that kind of story progression will most likely always be part of the games it even is part of the mobile game Fate/Grand Order
Michael Daniels I’m sorry to say but it wasn’t a visual novel it was an eroge
@@nicholaswilson1851 it was a visual novel eroge
@@nicholaswilson1851it's mainly a Visual Novel, the Eroge was added because sex sells.
There's hardly that many sex scenes , most of them are in the third route.
Sounds much better than the first Fate/Extella. I played that for an hour, but got bored after the 2nd mission trying to clear the maps. I'll probably try the game down the line when my game queue isn't destroying me.
I finished the story and unlock saber artoria and never touched it again. Extella doesn't have the replay value for me. Extella Link does look like they have improved a lot and there's multiplayer
Do i need to play the first extella games to understand the situation of the story?
@@Ky-of7td Hopefully someone that cleared the game knows. I never got that far. Random google search says it helps understand things, but idk if reading a synopsis would be a good enough substitute.
@@Ky-of7td To understand the story, you need to play only the Umbral Star. To understand the setting though-Fate/ franchise is quite a monstrous in size thing, but for the Extella part you won't need to see every entry-you might want to play maybe an old (2010) JRPG called Fate/Extra which is the origin of Extella and Extella Link setting-wise and will introduce you to the protag more, and also to some lore of your Servants. You're gonna be spoilered by Extella if you decide to play Extra, though.
Something like this. Also, Fate/Extra is pretty awesome and philosophic story-wise, with some nice touches such as the development not only of your MC and their Servant but of the NPCs as well, with each one having their own, most of the times only partially told or untold full stop, story.
This game looks very fun to play, love these types of RPG games where you can walk around for different characters and have a storyline with each of them! 4/5 stars for sure.
I'm not gonna lie...I don't even remember the soundtrack from the last game.
Sweet I just got my collectors edition in the mail. Thanks for the review I saw you had done a review and figured I'd watch it before I played it. I'm glad it's good!
I can't wait to play this I'm getting it today!
Finally I get to play best girl (Scathach) and best boi (Astolfo)
King Arthur is still best girl.
You spelt best girl wrong
LV427 WHAT ASTOLFOS A BOY
Playing as Arturia & Archer/nameless is honestly a blessing
Can't wait to play this. I have the special edition with the full mahjong set coming in from Europe.
Same here. Tax & shipping was a bitch though
@@UltimaXVI That's for sure.
i finished Umbral Star a bit ago and only have Artoria`s Side Story to go through, so i was interested in this game too. And seeing that Lancelot Berserker is a part of it AND its a warriors game has just sealed the deal for me.
I started playing today (PS4) and i played for like 6 hours straight, awesome game, really fun to play and epic Noble Phantasms
hi! do you need to play umbral before link? thank you
Some people bought this game to be their waifu.
Not me though. I am here for THE GREATEST COOOOOL!
Husbandos > Waifus.
Except Dario III. He's a great waifu.
@@rindou97 is there a Bonding system in this game
TheEverything Zoo yeah there is
Kagamine Rin “what if Jesus liked killing kids”
I'll have to pick this one up sometime! I like the Fate/ characters, but I honestly don't know much about them and haven't hardly played any of the games or watched the anime. I also own The Umbral Star, but I've only put maybe 10 hours into it, as I've never really been a Musou fan. But this one might be worth giving a shot!
Remember everyone to play this on the souljagame
Soulja Boy no
Soulja Boy no
Soulja boy yes
This by far is the more superior game between the two fate extella games with the exception to the music. So far i love what I've been able to play. I've also been playing Lego movie2 and enjoying it.
story was better in the first game imo
I've been on the fence about this game because like you said Extella was lacking in the gameplay, but if you've taken a liking to it this much then I'm probably going to get it in the Switch, thanks!
I love this game. Simple as that. Great game! I'm a huge Fate fan so this game was a godsend for me! I play on ps4 and plan to make content for it as well!
Years later and I see this game on sale. I search for a review and saw yours among many. Mmmmm ofcourse I chose your video to watch and decide 😍 I have never played such a game but it looks like it is that feel good gonna kick your ass kinda game hahha, gonna buy it!
I really enjoyed it and I don't know the first thing about the Fate franchise, which is great because it's obviously got people like me in mind and I was able to follow the story no problem. Hope you enjoy it! 😊
I can't believe I missed this game. I like mosou a lot and am a huge fate fan so it looks fantastic.
I'm interested in this series. I loved Hyrule and Fire Emblem Warriors a lot and I like all these character designs.
I'll probably get it. Thanks for the review!
Yeah if you like those any mosou game you should enjoy. And you know with both of those 100% the game takes 200+ hours so always a good bang for your buck
Fate/Extella Link is currently on sale for 50% off on the eShop until January 16
Update: On sale again for 40% off. Sale ends May 8th.
This looks way better than the previous one
It does
I'm considering getting this as my second Switch game xD (bought a Switch Lite recently), I really love FSN (Fate etc.), I don't own the predecessor, but I'd rather get the improved newer version right away!
Did you get it?
@@wrathpsp I did!
@@TheGDEventI did you need to play the previous games to understand everything?
I am loving this game, more than most 'warriors' style games. I regret not playing the first one when it came out.
Is there some difficulty?
was waiting for something like this >.> its a buy for me ( pc version ) after saw the review , maybe i will wait for a sale ^^
I got 15% sale because I had first extella in Steam 😂
I preffer fate extra ccc. Hope to get eng version
You need to play the first one to understand link? For story portion.
Not really, you can play Link straight away and still could understand lots of its story portion , but mainly it will spoil what happened before Link
Also if you happen to knew about Fate it will be much better to understanding the whole Lore
Charlemagne is so cool to use
Is there bonding as in other games? I don't see any videos other than umbral star with room events.
Whenever you start a review with a WWE reference, you get a thumbs up from me.
Seems interesting. The only part of the series I’ve seen is Fate Zero but I also played the shit out of Hyrule Warriors back in the day so this might be for me
27 missions for the main story and around 19 Extra battles? And here I was thinking this game was going to be short haha xD
Do the extra battles have some kind of "side stories" like the first game?
Oh and stupid question... is there a way to see each character moveset/combo list?
Cool intro man.
Debating on getting this for either Switch or PS4 (Depends if the PS4 version gets censored)
Not super familiar with the Fate series but if I can play as Scathach or Tamamo I'm good
Edit: Just ordered the PS4 Emperor of Paladins edition. Switch version was sold out. Also how much lore do I need to learn beforehand since this is a sequel plus the Fate series is annoyingly lore heavy at times
Edit 2: Just got the Platinum today
Fate extra is different then the main Fate line. It has its own story and this game is apart of the story Extra has to offer. It is a sequel though
I quickly looked up what I could. So its basically:
Alternative universe
MC has amnesia fighting to regain memories
More Holy Grail War & something else called the Moon Cube
Conflict but probably some other schemes at work
@@UltimaXVI yeah thats basically it. Idk if its just. Me but Extra is beyond amazing especially if you have no idea what fate is. You get to figure out who the servants are and its more of and rpg. Its a great game to start the series with
@Galactic Bambi I'm familiar with the Fate series through Zero, Stay/Night & Kaleid anime so I'm not completely in the dark but it is a big series that I find difficult to keep track of
@@UltimaXVI i wouldn't overly think about it. Just like kingdom hearts just take it in face value. I reccomend watch apochrypha if your interested. Its a great example of a spin off that developes a good story.
Im planning to get a switch soon and i hope this game will be in the storesT^T
I'm new to the Fate Series and all so im kinda late.
as much as i love the fate series I just can't get behind these dynasty warriors games...hopefully we'll see some more variety in the next few games
You should look at dynasty warriors 9. Or the empires games.
I hope they add first/king Hassan and Leonidas in the games next time
introduction? I'm waaaayyy deep into the Musou
Nice to see the sequel is just as good as the first game.
Played the new fate samurai remnant first and just recently starting this one I let my brother borrow this one first and he really enjoyed it took me a while to understand how everything works compared to the new samurai remnant game ❤❤
Did you play docked or mobile? If Mobile was there any stuttering or issues with it?
I'm loving the game. I have the digital pre-order for the "Alteria" costume, but I'm not sure how to access it in-game. Do I have to play a mission to unlock a DLC costume?
As far as I know, all the costumes are in the customise servant menu (at the base camp). Costumes you haven't unlocked are just grayed out. If it isn't there though, then I'm not sure. :/
are ou planing to make a lp of it like yu did for the first extela ?
@@JRPGGaming Some of the costumes do have unlock conditions from EX Chapters. In Artoria's case, she gets that Alteria costume only after beating the game once.
@@pablo9234 Yes but I'm encountering horrible copyright issues.
@@otakudaikun good luck
I got umbrao star and didn't know if I wanted to buy this until this video
So that costume you're using for Altera is unobtainable at the moment right? It was a preorder bonus?
Lol, as soon as I saw you play that character and then you showing the character screen with her wearing that costume I went to buy the game only to find that you can't get it anymore.
Oh well. That was like, the only reason I would buy this game for. To play with that chick in that costume. Gonna buy Xenoblade Chronicles Expansion instead.
My ONLY complaint with this game is the visuals. Handheld mode looks like a Vita game...
Docked... PS3...
Nintendo is capable of better looking games.
But the gameplay itself is spot on.
One question tho,
Can we make characters strike faster? (like, equip something to increase attack speed?)
Yes. There are several ways. Buff item drops, code casts, active skills for some servants, and i believe install skills too.
I mean
It IS a Vita game
That UI is insane. Gigantic. Is there anyway to make it smaller?
I feel like this is what fgo players wanted but on an even bigger scale with singularitys and more servents
Wish they added sasaki kojiro or any samurai character
Okita, minamoto-no-Raikou, Ushiwakamaru, would have been great additions
i dont like musou games, i do like the fate universe, would love a good rpg in that universe tho
How about Fate/Extra?
FGO?
CCC
I like Fate Stay Night and Hollow Ataraxia. Can't bring myself to play the gameplay Fate games though like Extella and Grand Order because the gameplay looks so dull.
Dynasty warriors was my favorite franchise when one and two came out on ps1 than i got final fantasy x on ps2 an final fantasy is now my favorite franchise with dynasty warriors in 3rd and the legend of heroes series at number 2
Ive had this game on my radar for a while especially after feeling disappointed by Fire Emblem Warriors. Musou games never appeal to me because it was just mashing the attack button over and over but I do respect the genre because it's got longevity for a reason. I just wish a dev team would make a musou game with combat depth similar to Bayonetta and Devil May Cry. That would be an incredible improvement on the formula
This I WOULD LOVE A CAC VERSION OF THIS
Can some big fella hit me up with the thumbnail?
I will be picking this up..
Should i still buy this on ps4🤔
gameplay n visuals are major improvement compared to extella but extella’s story is way better with interesting lore
The reason why this so called game is so good, is because I'm in it you mongrels.
The map layout reminds me of samurai warriors state of war
what about the ur computer teammates ? are those helpfull or is it just a 1 man army game ?
Damn... should I get this or Orochi warriors?? 😰
To me and most people I know see the Musou/Warrior games as multiplayer games and the ones that seem least successful in sales are in the solo only ones. Since this is part of the Fate franchise I can see is making it past the safe zone which in itself is amazing haha. Co-op makes a good game into a great game, while playing the Gundam ones I got a few friends into the Gundam series and explaining what was happening. It got them to check out a few series as a result. I only played 2 titles of Zelda but my friend got me to play more cause of Hyrule Warriors. This game seems fun but a hard pass for me.
Is there a place I can find the games used in your opening? One looks kinda cool, but I can’t tell what it is lol.
Here you go :)
twitter.com/JayRPGee/status/1085590604657045505
What game is in the R for your logo? Every time I watch your opening I have no idea what it is, but it looks interesting.
R is Gaius from Tales of Xillia
Stone Cold! Stone Cold! Stone Cold!
Can I play this without playing or knowing anything about the fate franchise? This looks so good!
Well it's a sequel to Fate/Extella so storywise it's not bad to play the first one. BUT not sure at all I'm just in the beginning.
How much of this review did you watch? lol
As I said in the video, I'm not familiar with the Fate franchise but still enjoyed this. I don't think it's super necessary to have any prior knowledge for Fate/EXTELLA Link :)
@@JRPGGaming But the name says Extella so it's Extella story XD
switch handheld or tv mode? any differences?
This game has been on my radar for a month now...
Is there a need to play the first Fate on Switch to understand this game both story and gameplay?
the story is so elaborate nobody even knows where to start so youre fine
I got Extella and Extella Link for Vita and enjoyed the heck outta both of them.
Do the switch versions run on 60 fps? That would be enough reason for me to buy them again.
I hope this is gonna be better than WO4
I love this game. My only issue is, as a western non-JRPG-playing trash boy, I do NOT understand the story whatsoever.
Fate Extra and Extella's story have been a shit the whole time, the fans are just there to enjoy the stupid characters and this game is made to milk that mindset
It’s hard because there’s a lot of deep lore that make events in the game significant but not knowing that lore can affect the games enjoyment. The story is pretty standard it’s just the branching stories made it hard to follow at times. Especially the tacked on last story while it was more interesting than the first 2 it didn’t feel like a significant climax to the story
@@theotakuoftime6465 Yeah, I mean, I get some of it I guess. I went into more detail of how I feel about it in my review on my channel. The story is ultimately just not for me. The gameplay is more than great though.
@@Johnnygrafxyeah i understand that. The gameplay is so much more fun and addicting and I have been doing the events lately because its so much fun. As a long time fan I get that its hard to dig into the lore especially since it has been building on the lore for so long. Their are a few characters that have had long standing rivalries and histories, Like Karna and Arjuna have a big rivalry but have never appeared in the same game at the same time. So as a long time fan it was really worth it to see but I understand that the story isn't for everyone. especially for a visual novel style but it was a great review and I enjoyed it you deserved that like and I will continue to follow your channel.
gameplay wise yeah
but the story extella link is simple and feel unfinished so rushed.
The story was really uninspired. Umbral Star was so good and this felt more Gameplay heavy. Still had a great time but it wasn't as memorable.
@@casey8040 agreed the gameplay is really improved by lot margin, but the story is so idk like they didnt bother to try harder to make the story part. If im not fan of fate series i wouldnt buy this at full price tbh.
The over focus on multi soured the experience.Extella was on the right track with the my room events
Did koei tecmo develop this game? Wish they do
Do i need to play the first games before going into this games to understand everything? Or should i skip it?
Technically this one is a sequel to The Umbral Star but it's more or less a self-contained story. I don't think it's necessary to play them in order.
The anime of fate series are the best in style
story wise the original fate extella is much better keeping in mind that the original story is 6-7/10 in my opinion not to mention that the first game had a lot of fan service fate link single player feels rushed and lack luster .
0:22 from which Game is the Girl in the black dress?
So, is this a sequel to Umbral Star or a remake?
Sequel
@@JRPGGaming thanks!
Wait, so is link different from the umbral Star? Like is it a sequel or something?
Sequel, yes. :)
Jay RPG damn, was actually really hoping you’d say no so I didn’t have to buy another game to my already ridiculous backlog, and I’ve already got the special edition of extella link so if they have a special edition for umbral Star then that’s the one I’ll have to get, my wallet is just a rotting corpse at this point
This or Hyrule Warriors?
Man I can’t lie out of all musou games I played even dynasty warriors fate link imo took the trophy. All characters are diffrent tons of skills the multi is fresh the specials are unique. Im loving it
Niawt Blaze And I thought Fire Emblem Warriors was the best, this blew it out of the water.
lovely one
Did you try its multiplayer at all?
This is better off playing on docked than handheld
There is basically no difference other than resolution.
This is like hyrule warriors
Love this game
Charlemagne and Astolfo are my mains
I'm all for the soundtrack as long as it doesn't have that god awful song from the first game Elizabeth sings in the first mission
What was those first couple games in the beginning before the intro
Fate/EXTELLA Link?
@@JRPGGaming oh unaware lol
COUNTESS BATHORY !!
I know I'm kinda late but
Can this game played without controller?
Damn shoulda waited for link extella was ok but felt clunky and meh this looks better
How connetcted it is with the others fate/extra? I'm planning to marathon the whole series sooner or later.
Its not connected _directly_ to extra/ccc. same setting (mooncell), different timeline. although if you play all extraverse game (except ccc due to its developer died before being localized) its _even better_ to have some level understanding of lore (if you _want_ even more of that you can search "extra & extella material").
@@masuahmadin7511 thanks! what's the deal with ccc exactly?
@@WolfBetter the game? or the developer? the former is because ccc's theme is..not for _everyone_ (but it bring _a lot_ new more exposition, _even more_ than extra) , the latter is because its developer (imageepoch) liquified before the publisher (marvelous) have a chance to localized it.
Please im begging you please tell me if i can download this on mobile and where
With what Anime show does this tie into?
VN1X
Gigguk MIGHT have the answer to that?
ruclips.net/video/wnVwcUhxt1k/видео.html
I've decided to opt for this instead and then watch the anime's after. Yay or nay?:
lparchive.org/Fatestay-night/Update%2001/
Doesn't really tie into anything since it's one of the few fate games that's clearly less focussed on the story.
OG fate stay night in particular has very little to do with this.
Not that I don't generally recommend it.
Edit: That gigguk video is pretty funny but will definitely not answer your question
Is their bonuses when you have a save from the previous title?
You get to unlock their bonus costumes in Umbral Star.
I bought becuz astolfo
When is dynasty warriors 9 empires
