mutants are a little boring
The mutants are a bit lacking. I believe the devs put a lot of effort in making the regular cannibals have more variance and behavior, and I hope they do the same for the mutants.
  • Blind mutants are just cave cannibals with no eyes, and shouldn't be labelled as a creepy mutant.
  • Finger looks very disturbing but they're small and get stunned easily when attacked at the legs. Mutant babies are... babies.
  • Sluggy we don't even get to fight right now which sucks - and they look more cute than they are scary.
  • Twins and rattler twins are alright
  • Demon looks dope actually but sadly it seems like they don't spawn outside at the moment.
  • Not a mutant, but the big red dudes are just naked fat men, and their attack is them comically body-slamming you. I'm actually not sure what was in the devs mind when they added them.
I think my main problem with most of the mutants is that they're just regular-sized human with deformed/merged body parts, there isn't any kind of monstrous look to it. They're all very creepy, but none of them looks threatening. I think having enemies similar to the Virginia from the first game would be amazing. It'd also be interesting to add some kind of rework of Worm. They're basically a joke in the first game but I absolutely loved the concept of it.

The red men may be a cannibal substitute for the cowman. They do the same belly flop and they seem to charge into structures to do damage. Aside from their jarring appearance at first, they seem to go down as easily as other cannibals. Feels like they should be more intimidating.

I like the look of the mutants but I feel like the only one that really causes a disruption is that catdog mutant. I don't know, fingers and the twins are cool but don't hit the same as an angry giant armsy or Virginia bum rushing you.

If you survive for enough says the sluggy comes to attack you (if you mean the mutant with a head and arms at both ends of a long body)

I would like more behavior in these guys. More reactions to certain situations. That way you just dont have to murder hobo the whole game.

I tried a passive approach. But everything just kinda doesnt get scared regardless of what you do.

The muddies are extremely aggressive compared to anything else.
