#but also like. the sheer narrative Feeling of Tulip appearing and saving my ass is what makes her so good

look i know this may be controversial but the fact that patriot and frostnova aren't playable is one of the things i admire the most about arknights. their level of restraint in creating characters that are phenomenally cool and then not even dangling them as a gacha pull is astonishing. any other game would be shitting themselves to put logos in a banner the minute he was introduced but arknights understands that if logos is made playable he's made Human, he's given numbers and a place in the meta, a place that may just be outright disappointing and negating the weight he's given. if Patriot's one role in the game is an impenetrable defensive monster with the power to oneshot almost anything you throw at him then that is how he lives in our mind
