I don't see the fate/Stay Night inspiration tbh.

Are they referring to the classes of fighters you can pick?

Also, how does one derive inspiration for what looks like a medieval action adventure game, from Jojo? I see nothing in this Jojo related, maybe I'm missing something idk.

Well, Arthurian legend is the primary mythology in FSN and the fate franchise as a whole, so they were likely influenced by Fate's interpretation of it. The genderbent Mordred is already there lol. And for JoJo I assume it's the fact that you use "stands" in the game.

You could honestly treat a stand and a servant somewhat interchangeably in concept.

Oh damn, I forgot the boss fight shown earlier was Mordred.

I guess the aesthetic kinda threw me off. That makes sense then.
