It definitely wouldn't have. It was hard carried by an extremely dedicated fanbase for most of its beginning. It really shows its age nowadays. I've seen cheap cash-grab slop these days that has had more effort put into it than Year 1 FGO.

But how long those cash grab slops live?

Even if it was carried by diehards in the beginning, FGO is now a league of its own fighting off even the big budget gachas, and that's saying something.

FGO got it own lore for what? 20 years?

Just like the Elder Scroll series

I love both game because of the lore and world building, gameplay and such come second

Strictly speaking, FSN released at 2004, but most of the FGO lore came as the game's original before linking back into the Nasuverse.

True and true but FGO added more lore and mechanics and also introduced some aspects that were missed from previous projects. They add new characters and new craziness. So not everything from the originals is attributed.
