What if the next major Fate game went all-in on the idea of a massive RPG? 1 hour ago

Imagine a Fate game where you could travel between different regions and timelines, meet Servants from across the franchise, build relationships with them, and actually explore the world instead of moving between isolated stages.
Fate/Samurai Remnant is probably the closest we have gotten to this idea. It combines action RPG combat, exploration, multiple Servants, and a story built around a Holy Grail War.

Fate/Extella and Fate/Extella Link also show how much potential there is in having a large roster of Servants fighting together.

But I think Fate could take the idea even further.
Think about what Kingdom Hearts does with its worlds, or what Final Fantasy VII Rebirth does with its large explorable regions.

Now imagine that approach with Fate.
You could have:
And the best part would be bringing characters from completely different Fate entries together naturally.
Saber from one timeline could meet Archer from another.
Gilgamesh could become a boss, ally, or even an optional super-boss.
Characters from Fate/Grand Order could appear without the entire game simply becoming another mobile-style experience.

Fate already has the characters, lore, timelines, and mythology.
It just needs a game big enough to bring all of it together.
Would you play a Fate RPG like this?
Or should Fate stick with smaller, more focused games like Samurai Remnant?

Now imagine that approach with Fate.
You could have:
Quote:• A massive hub city that changes depending on the timeline
• Different Fate worlds to explore
• Servants appearing as party members or companions
• Holy Grail Wars taking place dynamically throughout the world
• Side stories for individual Servants
• Choices that actually change the timeline
• Multiple endings
• Boss fights against legendary Servants
• Large-scale Noble Phantasm battles
• A party system similar to a traditional Final Fantasy RPG
Saber from one timeline could meet Archer from another.
Gilgamesh could become a boss, ally, or even an optional super-boss.
