My Eulogy for Machinist

[Kabooa]

Am I the only one that cannot abide playing a "gunslinger" class that has you perform pointless olympic level gymnastics while shooting a target?

Sure, just standing there holding still might feel boring, but good lord have the game designers never actually shot a gun?

Try performing a backflip while shooting a moving target and see how that works for you.

I bet they haven't even summoned a primal, or shot a bow, or swung a greatsword, or did a spinning jump axe cleave, or...

MCH is more like Matrix Keanu versus something like John Wick Keanu. Older Hong Kong gun battle movies had a lot of acrobatic flips and spins while shooting guns. Modern Warfare style gun shooting is visually more boring, even if its more realistic.

Turning MCH into yet another cover shooter would be bad in a fantasy game. Give me Quake Live or Unreal Tournament over Gears of War in this game.

This is a very good conversation tbh, the Devs May not have the best idea for a gunner base class, as seen here due to its heavy reliance on gcd gadgets, maybe due to culture reasons? Gun slingers are more popular as a western phenomenon. A silly argument can be made that “MCH was never intended to be a gunner” despite having a gun and all. But rarely do I stumble on MCH aesthetic identity as a issue, most likely blinded by the flare and visuals, like how SMN ppl are acting rn

Lol what does it mean to be another cover shooter? Your still mostly doing 1-2-3
