Please improve the look of some characters
Hi. This game has a nice and unique visual style, it looks great,
but am I the only one who doesn't like the look of few characters in the game?

It's a hero shooter, which means the characters have to be as visually pleasing as possible so you'll want to play as them.

It may seem strange to some, but I used to start playing some games just because I saw an announcement trailer of some character that looked so cool that I ran to buy an online game to play as that character.

For me, that's what happened with Cammy, Lily, or Mai, those characters sold me the game.

Most characters look just awesome, they are very beautiful with interesting design ideas.

But other one have a good design idea but end up looking kind of repulsive, not cool.

Now for specific examples:
1. Corona looks just awful, he has some problems with his body proportions. He should be taller and not hunched over.
2. Zephyr's chin is too big.
3. Spider looks too sweet and soy, he needs more muscles.
4. Jaguar would look super cool if it weren't for his horrible beard. He should change his beard style, for example like Tony Stark or Hizenberg.
5. How could you make a robot that doesn't look cool? Usually robots are the coolest (like Rammatra), but something went wrong here

Also Sonar looks very beautiful, but why are all the characters in the game human (except for one robot), but she is only one mutant? There needs to be more other mutants, otherwise she is very out of place.

How do you think about that? Do you like the looks of all the characters?

1. Its wild you call a martial arts stance was *hunched over*. Its called Glima and Vikings practiced it. Its sort of like jujitsu as its mostly about grappling but the stance typically performed during Glima is similar to how Corona stands. Its meant to protect the body while keeping your reach, hence why it looks like he has weird proportions. Since Coronas fighting style is very aggressive, in your face, and meant to disable opponents it makes sense he holds that stance. He's also from the Aesir shard, Aesir is in reference to viking myth about gods of battle, so Glima is culturally appropriate.

2. This is just nitpicking, if you're so superficial her chin is a problem its a good thing no one will listen to you.

3. He was an actor and model... He's supposed to be a pretty boy... I'm sorry you missed the characterization of him... Plus he's a tech based character they almost NEVER have the action hero physique.

4. More nit picking... some people have that beard, some people like it. There is a reasonable level of disliking a design element but you are wanting them yo cater EVERY design to your specific sensibilities. You're not the main character here, you don't have to like his beard for it to exist.

5. I can't really argue as I don't like his design but your reasoning behind it is trashy. What makes a robot "cool" your "suggestion" is subjective AND you don't say what isn't. "cool" about him... For me its the head BUT I understand the mechanical reasons for his head, it needs to be large enough to headshot... a proper robot head is too small for that.

6. More characters are coming, they probably dropped Sonar to get reactions for less conventional characters. We'll likely see more as more characters release... Also all of them apart from Chum are mutants. That's why they can use Glumite at all. They were mutated to have those powers, some present physically like Sonar and Corona, but most don't... So far. Since Sonar isn't hated we're certainly getting new mutants in the future, have patience.

Its ok to take issues with design elements you don't like... I dislike Brokers outfit... But I understand the characterization he has and the design makes sense in context... I would never ever THINK of forcing my preferences on the game... Unless there is just a clearly bad design from top to bottom.

Dude, you have the worst takes ever, and I am not surprised seeing you defend ugly characters, you are friggin' Baphomeat, you are a Satanist and obviously a wokey. You are probably the type to not even vote and then complain about society.

Anyways, Spider is pretty unappealing character, he looks very sussy, I'm not too much of a fan of Chum either, he looks like a wet paperball. Amanita, Nitro and Hollowpoint look good but we still need more attractive females. Sonar is pretty cool but she is covered like head to toe, where is her body? OP is pretty much right, fanservice pleases the fans and that is why anime does it.
if only the devs read these
