>>115488328>Getting buff made him a whole new characterYou think so? It could be my perception over ages is just different from yours, but I have always projected the idea that he's a 28, 27-year-old man, near to become mature, no matter over which design of his. That said, I do agree that with his soft-boot self, he looks rather more young, even if only appearance-wise.
>and he was already inconsistent enoughDefinitely, but I might include that he was poor at his personality too, all thanks to the very lack of spotlights, explorations, things for him to do and others. Which, theses would be dedicated to construct for him a, not just consistent, but also better filled up, meaty personality, enough to consider him a well-used, good character.
The said lack of attention problem I say is so severe, that I can't decide right away which writer brought the best for him, as none of them reached the minimum bar of sufficient character exploration.
>drawing his gun first at just the sight of Robotnik with the intent to kill one issue, then letting Robotnik walk into Knothole because he comes unarmed the nextCuriously enough, Penders has written both of theses situations, and that makes it worse, as it shows Penders is factually incapable to keep up with its own established material, whilst disregarding instantly what everyone else around him wrote.
As if the last-minute slapped pacifist trait wasn't questionable enough, I also always wonder over whatever more kinds of plans did he had to explore further his homosexuality, and by no surprise, how degrading and bad it would end up by execution for Rotor. Knowing who's Penders, I'm just really relieved he missed his opportunity for that.
>made for a nice design.For sure (it's fur, not hair)! The bomber jacket design was a welcoming wardrobe change for Rotor as it shows that he grew up, as well how much more of experience he has acquired through his first years of freedom fighting. That said, I love all Rotor's, really.
