I’m obviously in the minority here (being probably older than most of you, and having been a fan of the film when it first came out), but when I buy a game to play as the Predator, I want the game character to, you know, ‘look’ like a Predator, and not look like a He-Man action figure or reject from some cheesy Japanese kid’s TV show.
Why you’d want to replace the original rugged, battle-worn aesthetic with this fashion parade of gold, purple, and ridiculously over ornate and impractical armor is beyond me. Fearsome Hunter race? Some of these Preds would look more at home on RuPaul’s Drag Race. You’re on a hunt, not a catwalk.
It seems the Marvel/Fornite generation can’t enjoy anything unless it’s available in a multitude of ‘wacky’ outfits and garish colors. If Illfonic decided to add Unicorn biomasks with rainbow lasers and candy cane combo sticks, it seems a good proportion of the player base would lap it up.
Here endeth my rant.
