Fate/Extella: The Umbral Star (PC) - PC Games

Ranking all my Steam games (45 games items)

"Positives: - Gameplay works, characters control well. - Good fanservice towards Fate fans. Negatives: - Some characters and parts of the story are significantly worse than what Fate/Extra created. - Gameplay is very repetitive, even for Musou standards."

The worst timeline in a repetitive Musou game

“This game does not deserve getting a negative review from me.. but it's only barely positive at the same time. Even as a massive Fate fan who unfortunately dumped way more money into Fate/Grand Order than he should have. Let me start off with the story, which is fulfilling if you have not played Fate/Extra, which this game is a sort of sequel to. Note: you do not have to play Extra to know this game's story, though I would recommend playing Extra over this game anyway. Extella may be a sequel to a non-existant Extra route which I can understand, but what I don't approve of is how it ruins several characters and story setpieces from the original. Extra had you choose between three playable servants that you got to bond with very well over the course of the game through a Visual Novel story.” read more
