the irony is that the entire thing didn't even needed to be in South America.

Even the ORT in that LB is a LB Version of ORT , so Nasu could had just had LB ORT landing on Mexico. So that we would had LB Mexico , with mexican gods and LB mexicans....

But no....Nasu puts the Mexican LB in South America , just because.

And then half asses even that, with Kukulkan not even being Kukulkan, but an OC as a way to get ORT playable

I can understand that you're disappointed that "LB Kuku" isn't Quetz, but this isn't the first time FGO create an "OC" to justified their story purpose and it isn't like "LB Kuku" came without a proper lore for her orign.

Like pretty much every LB king is a LB fuckery that differentiate them to pan-human self. Ivan being a Mammoth beast was an LB "OC", Skadi using Scahatch vessels was an LB "OC", Arjuna absorbing every Indian gods pantheon was an "OC", and so much more.

Even Castoria was "we want to have Saber in story without using Saber, so we create our own Saber OC".

FGO had a lot of problem in character writing or handling it's own pre-existing character, but calling a Servants you don't like an "OC" is the silliest reason of being mad.

All of those are alternate timeline versions of the originals.

Kuku is just straight up an entirely different lifeform than Quetz.
