Rotations arent fun either. they're lifeless, static, and largely thoughtless. People kicking off about Kaiten because its takes thought away from the class. It really doesn't, You follow the same rotation in every encounter which basically means you press Kaiten at the exact same times in every encounter without second thought. It's just another button in a rotation.
So changing the Kenki gauge to a "PRESS THE GLOWY BUTTON FOR DAMAGE!" is better than managing your Kenki to get the damage buff and getting a SWEET animation to boot? Please stop speaking for Samurais like you know how to play one. Managing Kenki is pointless now, you just slap the glowy button until you have no more kenki, not fun really.
