YES it drives me absolutely nuts that somehow they still haven't worked out wtf Machinist is! At this point my Big Wishlist Item is to drop the pretense and just make it Ishgardian Trigun*. Or Black Lagoon. Or Devil May Cry. You know, those animes/games where the creators clearly love weapons and being stylish with them. It just feels way too inconsistent.

*very tempted to just make a Vash glam for MCH at this point too lol

actually like now that you mention it, it's weird how super good some of the anims are in the game too alongside others that are less impressive. RDM has some fantastic melee attack animations (the like, flip jump you do during Engagement, the actual flip you do during Contre Sixte, the cool...rapier.....swirl thing you do in Resolution) and a good amount of DRG's (piercing talon aside) are great too. Even weirder: RDM is newer while most of DRG's are older. Though, as I complained in another thread, DRG's effects feel a little too threadbare to me, while RDM I feel nails the balance between flashy VFX and great anims.
