Nasu Interview regarding FGO's story ending at ARC2
This is the link to the script for the original article https://www.4gamer.net/games/266/G026651/20181228023/

The main points I would like to discuss:
I would prefer if we tried to avoid the topic of "Oh no! FGO is ending!" because it's a topic that invoves an emotional response usually derailing the discussion.

This is particularly important because nowhere in the interview does it says FGO will end after the story ends.

We don't know if the 「新しい何か」is a continuation of FGO (something like FGO2) or another game meant to run in parallel with FGO. There isn't much value in discussing this without and real information, so lets ignore this till we get real information.


 * 1) During the interview Nasu talked about how he got permission to end FGO's story with the end of ARC2. However, there is also DW's recruitment of the 3rd Director http://delightworks.co.jp/recruit/the_3rd_director_audition/. What do you think the combination of this news means?


 * 1) After saying: "用意したプロットとしては，第2部で終了する予定です. なので第2部までにできること，やりたいことを全部やり切るつもりです" Roughly translated (With the plot we have prepared ending with ARC2. We plan finishing everything we want to do and can do by th end of ARC2).   Nasu then said: "……怖いのは，プレイヤーさんに「まだ続きを見たい」と言われてしまうことですね. " Rough translation (.... What scares/worries me is if the players say "I want to see more of the story continued") He then says: "そうなった場合，「FGO」であれば“終わりの先”を描くことになるんですが，正直に言って地続きなお話にするのはかなり大変です. ……可能ではあるんですが. " Roughly translated (If that does happen on「FGO」, I would be forced to wrte the "The story beyond the ending". In all honesty it would be extremely difficult to  continue the the story .... Although it would still be possible.) ~Sorry I couldn't come up with a better translation for “終わりの先”~


 * 1) Based off the statements above and the rest of the article I didn't quote like the undertale stuff, what conclusions were you able to draw? I believe this means one way or another Rayhifting will either become impossible or Chaldea will cease to exist or worst case scenario the Protagonist will die or be unable to continue his adventure. Which is why he said it would be extremely difficult to continue the story on/of FGO after ARC2.


 * 1) If you think my conclusion isn't wrong do you think the theory that the FGO universe is actually the prequel to the Extra timeline? Meaning the ending of ARC2 might lead to the MOON CELL post-apocalyptic digital world suff? ( I know very little about this so please explain in detail why you think this is possible or completely wrong)


 * 1) Finally What is your opinion on FGO story ending at ARC2 partially to prevent 【ゆっくり雑談】奈須きのこ先生、FGO二部終わったら休養する説【Fate】-0 story from contradicting itself because multiple authors are involved in multiple characters. Watch the Video from 2:19 onwards even just a few minutes (Japanese warning) It talks about this issue better than me. For example Atalanta (Alter) who's existence destroyed the Fate definition of Alter, Tomoe Gozen who was originally introduced by Nasu during Camelot but never shown or even talked about much but her character was further developed by a different auther during Shimosa (I think). Or Spartacus who was designed by the writer for LB3 S.I.N which is probably intentional.


 * 1) Finally do you think it's a good idea to end FGO's story with the best possible ending Nasu could come up with. Or would you prefer the story to keep going on even at the cost of making the overall product crappier? In other words do you prefer shorter series that have a good proper ending or do you prefer series that drag on indefinitely and slowly getting worse overall until people get borded of them usually only getting a rushed ending?
