I was checking out which branch has gone the longest without a new operator, and it seems like Protectors might be completely forgotten. Our last protector was Heavyrain back when A Walk in the Dust came out in 2021.

Understandably, the game's meta has shifted out of favor of defenders whose sole gimmick is their very high DEF, but it is still sad to see.

Anyways, I’m sure next update will introduce the Defenders that can ‘Take Off’

Some background, I really enjoyed the Arkane games from all Dishonored games to Prey and Deathloop. I think I heard that Weird West is by OG devs who departed from Arkane or something like that.

I tried out the game a bit ago for about an hour and while the world was interesting, the gameplay felt oddly rigid and unresponsive to me. Characters being locked into animations and enemy detection often not really being clearly defined. I think it’s an issue with me and the isometric view of the game.

Then I hear about a first person mod that changes the experience and I’m curious if it’s worth getting back into.
