[k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 6] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Sion No. There are things which only they can do, no question about that. [k] [charaFace A 10] @Sion I think it may all come back to the reason Servants in general... [k] @Sion ...have names, personalities, and egos in the first place. [k] [charaFace A 6] @Sion Do you know why that is, [%1]? [k] ?1:More or less. [charaFace A 0] @Sion ...You think it is because it is better if they do? [k] [charaFace A 9] @Sion Hehe. That may be just a tautology, but I will accept it. [k] ?2:No, I don't... [charaFace A 0] @Sion I guess it may just be so natural for you... [k] @Sion ...that it is hard for you to consciously describe. [k] ?! [charaFace A 2] @Sion For me, I think it is because, in the larger scheme of things, they are more useful that way. [k] @Sion Feelings, ego, and such things all feed into their strength. [k] @Sion This complex interplay is what gives Servants their power. [k] @Sion But that also means they could deteriorate if their different aspects are separated unnecessarily. [k] [charaFace A 10] @Sion So you cannot simply bolster their numbers with a one-size-fits-all approach and call it good. [k] @Sion If you require evidence, only take a look around. [k] [charaFace A 6] @Sion Those two may have fared okay, but Rider and Caster's Alter Ego versions did not work at all, if you ask me. [k] @Sion In fact, I think there is a very good chance they ended up weaker than their originals.

Looking at the analysis of what has transpired, I cannot deny that possibility. [k] [charaFace B 0] @Rani-XII I did observe a significant amount of power in Saber, the Alter Ego of Love and Loathing... [k] @Rani-XII ...but I will admit that in the case of those two Alter Egos, some aspects shattered their overall balance. [k] [charaFace B 8] @Rani-XII And yet, I wasn't able to calculate that result. I failed to reach that answer. Why is that? [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 10] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Sion I think it is because you failed to account for the most important parameter of them all: [k] [charaFace A 6] @Sion Emotions. [k] [charaFace A 8] @Sion That resulted in significant structural flaws. [k] @Sion All humans, Heroic Spirits included, rely on their emotions, ego, self-consciousness, and outward persona to determine their moment to moment actions. [k] [charaFace A 2] @Sion They are a complex interweave of numerous Alter Egos all laid atop one another. [k] @Sion That is arguably what makes humans, human. [k] [charaFace A 10] @Sion But you are an AI. Your existence revolves around fulfilling a single command. [k] @Sion And so you could not understand this aspect of humans. You believed a single ego would be sufficient. [k] [charaFadeout A 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk B] [charaFace B 1] [charaFadein B 0.1 1] @Rani-XII ...[sr]... [k] [charaFace B 0] @Rani-XII I see. I can't deny that, either. But that does lead to a new question. [k] [charaFace B 8] @Rani-XII If what you have said is true, then why does the Alter Ego class exist at all? [k] @Rani-XII What's the difference between an Alter Ego that works, and one that doesn't? [k] [charaFadeout B 0.1] [wt 0.1] [charaTalk A] [charaFace A 6] [charaFadein A 0.1 1] @Sion ...[sr]...
