Employee 1: Ok we need a new hero for the Wu Lin race and it has to be a heavy because we've never released a heavy character in DLC.
Employee 2: Fair enough. What were you thinking?
Employee 1: Well I just googled "Chinese Medieval weapons" and there's a pretty sick polearm looking thing that looks sweet as. Lets start with that.
Employee 2: Sounds good. What abilities will he have?
Employee 1: Well i've been thinking about the Nobushi hidden stance and I feel like we could switch it up a bit.
Employee 2: Ok. How much stam would it drain?
Employee 1: Drain? The stance would regenerate stam at no cost. He also needs an unblockeable heavy finisher with hyperarmor, a top heavy feint kick thingy that is a guranteed heavy if the opponent is kicked into a wall and a heavy dodge attack that can be soft feinted into a light that has ridiculous tracking. Also, get the new guy Dave working on all his animations.
Employee 2: Ok? But maybe we should focus on bringing some of the older characters up to scratch? Like the Peacekeeper?
Employee 1: The what?
Employee 2: And what about the Shugoki?
Employee 1: Look mate, those are some of the original heros. If people think the DLC heros are better, our precious customers would be more inclined to spend more money on purchasing them.
Employee 2: Isn't that dangerously close to pay-to-win?
Employee 1: Do not insult me by claiming that one hero is better then another! Player skill is the only thing that matters!
Employee 2: Ah very true.
Employee 1: Ive also had another idea about a Wu Lin character that does the very thing we love about For Honor, fast light attacks that can be chained, and whose moveset will basically **** over everything we've taught our loyal player base over the past 2 years.....
I cant make this up

'...aren't THAT much better,' still makes them better. They can do just about everything the old heroes can, but better!Originally Posted by atac56 Go to original post
Look, OP, there are a hundred thousand threads about this. We just have to accept that the devs thought of a way to milk the cow more, and the rest of us have to deal with it.

The hidden stance thing is ridiculous. There is literally no upside to the nobushi compared to JJ. It almost feels like the JJ was supposed to be a nobushi rework that turned into another character for money.
The chinese faction feels like it was made by a completely different team in an effort to better market the game to the chinese.
The only hero imo that feels as cliche and uninspired as the wulin characters is the highlander.
I have been beat to death by the romance of the three kingdoms and tbh I thought if any team would be able to convey a more brutal and interesting version of ancient chinese warriors it would've been this one. Guess I was wrong.
We got Wukong, guan yu, a chinese figure skater and whatever nuxia is. To top it all off the new hero is going to be a crouching tiger hidden dragon floaty dancy hero that's going to use another form of non combat based martial arts.
The wulin feel like somebody put fortnite characters into battlefield 4 and gave them all rocket launchers and the ability to fly.
