Returning Characters
While new characters are awesome, it's really cool to see returning characters realized in 3D gameplay. If one more returning character appeared in the game, who would you want in? Personally, I'd love to see my favorite character from ROR1, Acrid, return. But it would also be really neat having characters like HAN-D or Loader come back.

Sniper would be neat in 3D.

I personally want to see Sniper; 3d is basically a much much better environment for the character to begin with and would allow for some neat new possible mechanics so it wasnt identical to its ROR1 counterpart.

Ignoring the fact that we may be getting HAN-D soon, Enforcer. A quick unlock in the first game, but a character I fell in love with because of his simple nature. Stand with your back to a wall, blast away until they get too close and smack them back for some space before firing off a gas canister to really make some room. With the change to 3-D, and the massive amount of new projectiles, his shield would need tweaking, but most of his kit would work fine. Add to the fact that he'd be a good support-ish tank for Multiplayer games depending on his shield would work, and I'd happily sink hundreds of more hours into him.

Honestly though, miner's the only character I don't really need to return. Not a huge fan of him in the first game, and I'd imagine his mobility would make him top dog again.

loader and chef

My sweet baby boy bandit. He's already half in the game. I hope he doesn't get scrapped.

CHEF by a long shot. Lightly-seared lemurian steaks, anyone?

Loader or Enforcer would be cool too

Really cool idea, I like the simplicity of his character too. It's easy to feel surrounded in RoR2 so I think he'd be popular for a lot of players. The only thing I'd worry about is how they'd make him unique.

I think it would be fun to see Providence return as a playable character, or even just as a boss again.

Not HAND, he'd have to change a lot to be viable (and by viable I mean not some broken character who sucks until you pick up a tesla coil then completely breaks the game like if you unlock him with a mod).

My picks would probably be acrid (seems like a lot of people's favorite for some reason), or chef. Probably chef. He's cool. And I feel like there's a lot of ways you could optimize damage in 3d with his skillset.

There was talk at one point by some data miners that the HAN-D base in the files had something similar to Loader's grappling hook. So my votes on HAN-D since he's a blast to play from the first one and we need another Melee character. Not to mention the hint for the next character pretty much confirms it's him.
