FGO Final Journey story (from what I remembered) + my thoughts

MC get trapped in Virtual Reality combat simulator. To escape he has to work with other Crypters to defeat Chaldea in this virtual reality (they all just data).

The battle is like Vampire Survivors (I don't play this game but people say they are mostly the same). Basically you control a character paired with their servant(Guda Mash, Kadoc Ana ,etc), said servant will attack while positioned near the character. You get non-character exclusive extra attack by levelling up or picking chest. So you can get character spam GoB, throwing Kansho Byakuya, or even shooting Enuma Elish if you levelled them up enough in a round. All the stages are Lostbelts stages and you unlocked each playable Crypter once you moved to the next lostbelt.

Lostbelt 1: Stage 1 Boss Beowulf Stage 2 boss Ivan

First playable are Guda Mash and Kadoc Ana. Guda Mash has Mash bash her shield frontward, Idk much what she can do since this unit kinda meh playwise. Kadoc Ana is much enjoyable with Ana basically envelop Kadoc with aura which damages the enemy, and it grows bigger the more you level it up.

Lostbelt 2: Stage 1 boss Valkyrie Stage 2 boss Skadi

Ophelia started to become playable here. She has Sigurd (Surtr?) slashing enemy close to them. Overall ok but Kadoc is easier to use imo.

Lostbelt 3: Stage 1 boss Li Shuwen Stage 2 boss QSH

Akuta playable here accompanied with Lanling. Lanling gives charm to enemy he hits.

Lostbelt 4 Stage 1 boss Jinako Stage 2 boss Arjuna Alter

Pepe is playable here with Ash. Ash has flame wheel circling him for a time before disappearing and appearing again. The flame wheel is powerful but since it disappears for a time this unit kinda tricky to play.

Lostbelt 5 Stage 1 boss Odysseus Stage 2 boss Super Orion (the art is Artemis bearchoking him).

Wodime with Caenis is playable here. Attack feels as strong as Pepe but also much easier to use since Caenis spinning spear has less lag time. At final upgrade Caenis shoot water stream frontward for more damage.

Lostbelt 6 Stage 1 boss Summer Morgan/Aesc Stage 2 boss Summer Melusine (iirc, I didn't quite remember which comes first)

Beryl is playable and he has both Baobhan and Morgan. Also pretty OP as he auto target and spam Baobhan curse right at the enemy at range. More level means bigger range and target.

Lostbelt 7 Stage 1 boss Tlaloc Stage 2 boss Kukulcan

Daybit and Tez playable here also by far the best unit in the game. Tez is near Daybit as he shoot bullet. At max level he also spam red thunderstorm at area and skull which damages the enemy. Also he level up superfast at early on.

Final Story

Guda and the Crypters reached a castle and they encountered another Guda here (same gender as your Guda). This Guda2 looked very exhausted and on the verge of giving up as they unable to contact Mash and anyone else in Chaldea. Someone laughed and we see the true mastermind which is:

Koyanskaya wearing very skimpy clothes ala bikini and Koala ears for some reason. She calls herself Count Koalaskaya. Da Vinci asks how Koalaskaya able to hack the VR to which she revealed before Koyanskaya turned ally she handed an USB drive to Goredolf which filled with her virus. Goredolf remembered he plugged that USB drive when he was still not friendly to Chaldea. Da Vinci disappointed and suspect Goredolf used that USB to watch porn but Goredolf insist it was just VR racing game. Count Koalaskaya goal is to gather Guda's protagonist combat data that defies all odds and sent it to Alien God to ensure Guda's defeat. When Da Vinci asked who the Alien God is Koalaskaya refused to reveal it since it'd be spoiler, and also because she doesn't know either as she only knows its Email address. Koalaskaya claim Guda is already lost since Guda can either defeat Guda2 and has their combat data delivered to Alien God or Guda will simply stuck here forever, all lead to game over either way. Guda2 then gather all his power and transform into Cringe Chuunilord Grand Master class Guda2 (they dressed like Neo from Matrix with Golden Hair). There's also disclaimer to not take these things seriously. Facing with Guda2 power our Guda is about to give up until The Crypters give our Guda pep talk as to not give up. Guda and the Crypters then team up to defeat Guda2.

Final Stage: All the Lostbelt bosses + Count Koalaskaya as mid bosses + Cringelord Guda2 as final boss. Guda2 attack is bunch of servants rushing forward damaging us if we get hit by it.

Guda and The Crypters won and as Guda2 about to disappear Wodime says to Guda2 to not feel regret as they fought well. Guda2 disappear then Koalaskaya claim Guda has lost since the combat data has been sent. However our Guda instead feels confident instead of despair, as remarked by Wodime. All the Crypters take turns saying this battle prove they can overcome anything with Daybit close it that it was Koalaskaya who lost. Mash says she won't let Guda fight alone like what happened to Guda2. Koalaskaya disappears, then all the Crypters give last pep talk to Guda. Wodime also says its good to see Kadoc in good health and hope he and Guda can walk forward. Guda then logged out and credit starts rolling with FGO part 1 ending song Eternity Blue playing.

Some thoughts:

Honestly overall pretty good April Fools game. Gameplay pretty satisfying seeing all manners of Noble Phantasm flying around destroying everything. I still think the mix match servants still the most fun I ever had though.

Is Koalaskaya hint to summer Koyan? Who knows. What she wears is skimpy enough to pass a summer variant.

I said all Cryptes give pep talk to Guda but Beryl dialogue mostly consist of what it feels like NPC dialogues showing barely any personality. I guess it shows how hard it is to write Beryl as Guda's ally.

This and previous AP game really make Wodime as the leader and protagonist of the Crypters. He has the most dialogues followed closely by Kadoc. Daybit dialogue mostly concise and to the point. Wodime is the leader while Daybit is Ace in the hole.

It feels nice seeing the what if imagined Gigachad Guda looks like cringelord (which fits as its really amusing) and that they got defeated by Guda who relies on comradeship.
