@ Edward

Well, explanation for that act goes to fact that, devs. already expecting player to understand the game after so long. FGO isn't the only game doing that, GBF also doing that with their story SR, they gave them skill and kits that just won't find use if your grid is newbie-kind of grids and roster for their newest story SR.

On other mobage I played as well for example. For first two story chapter, they gave us free SR DPS. Next chapter is healer (following increase of damage scaling). Newest chapter gave buffer, and upcoming chapter are predicted to gave def-based tanker and dodge-based tanker. By logic, only veteran that would find use to that (starting from healer).

On FGO case, if you spent your time carried by Herc and/or Waver until Salomon, then yes, you would feel such act is terrible. Why not giving us more story SR? You're sick DW.

However if you also delve to less beginner-friendly Servants like Musashi, Sherlock, Moriarty, MHXA; DW move is simply following what other devs. already did; some people want more challenge on team build, so we gave it to you--blocked by story-locked and Limited status.

Cruel? Yes, but we assure you that they're formidable allies worth your Quartz once you mastered them; remember, we need good flow of income as well.

By clearing EOR, you have proven that you has good understanding of game mechanism regardless of your roster average rarities; no worries for player that saving their Quartz, we will expand the non-locked silver for increase of your option (Houzoin and Avicebron) through FPs as well as providing skill updates.

With this decision, DW capable to keep good expectation from both new and experienced player despite FGO nature being waifu-based game.

The effectiveness is proven among Japanese players, whales in Japan now has consideration of opening more challenge / playstyle through story gacha instead of simply aiming for waifus. Westerners have less whale, so it can't be helped.

As for free R as story prizes, I'd say no worries. I'm pretty sure DW will gave it again once we reach point that we need good, free Servant to raise our roster value. Caster Cu, David, especially broken ones like Taiga and Bedi, value are still high that their NP 5 are precious even by current standard.

I don't know if Japanese really suffering same issue regarding farming that could lead to complaints. GBF managed to live for 4 years despite grinding is what you do all the day. Meanwhile, in FGO, several players already 10/10/10 Anastasia and Salieri, not even a week after the Lostbelt launched. Even in my friend list, someone managed to Lv. 90 10/10/10 Semiramis after two days of having her on Friend List during Valentine. LOL.
