I liked it! I know some people in the subreddit didn't, but not everything has to be super in-depth plotty loredumps that advance the ongoing narrative. Sometimes it's fun to just go deep into a new character's backstory and have a fun little sidequest that's wrapped up neatly within one patch. It's fine. I enjoyed it.
Spoilers below the cut!
> Rappa. Oh, Rappa. My opinion on you changed so fast from "ehh, ninja hip hop girl who looks like Silver Wolf, Hoyo really missed an opportunity by not making her dark-skinned, I'll pass" to "Oh, you're a silly little chunni aren't you, I think I kind of like you" to "OH MY GOD YOU PRECIOUS LITTLE BABYGIRL BUNNY I LOVE YOU YOU PRECIOUS BABY" I want to give her a hug so bad. She deserves it. Still not a big fan of her design- there's the aforementioned missed opportunity, I personally hate her hair (either give her a bob cut or a ponytail, don't do this weird in-between thing) and the way her shirt is tied just looks irritating to me, a Big Boob Haver. I know Hoyo has a fetish for asymmetry but honestly. She is very silly, though. I like her!
> Boothill age regression canon. I am urging the ficwriters to get freaky with this. I liked him in this! On a tangentially-related note I thought he was a full-conversion cyborg but apparently he can drink small amounts of liquid? Am not a Boothill Expert so I may have been wrong on the full-conversion cyborg thing but 1: If he wasn't a full-conversion cyborg and just had like metal skin then BORING and 2: If he is a full-conversion cyborg, where is the liquid going? Maybe that's why he can't drink large amounts. I'm probably overthinking this.
> Mr. Reca. At first I loathed his voice but then I got used to it- it really fits his character. He seems very fun, a nice wild-card character with a fun association with "memories" that lets him serve as a nice contrast to Black Swan. I want to see tentacles in his pussy. I know I'm not by any means a "film person" but I'm going to have so much fun picking his brain and figuring out what he'd like in modern AUs- honestly kind of see him as a Werner Herzog guy.
> I honestly didn't expect "main villain of this patch references one of M's favorite pieces of trivia (BANANA CLONE EXTINCTION APOCALYPSE) during his motive rant" but hey. Fun.
> I was so worried they were going to have Robin rap and it was going to be horribly cringe but they didn't. Dance party ending for all.
> Love villains with weird bonkers motivations so Dr. Primitive and his antics are going to be fun when they keep showing up. Hope he's going to be playable eventually.
