Creativity is important but if they focus too much on unexpected/less popular choices just for the sake of being unique instead of putting in people’s favorite characters that they
want to play as, it’ll get a little tiresome especially if that creative character just ends up too gimmicky and ironically even
more boring.
“Boring” fan requests don’t even have to be a bad thing, just because their moveset is predictable and doesn’t wow you for 5 minutes shouldn’t mean there isn’t a way of enjoying them.
I mean heck,
‘s official moveset comes from 90% of the fan-made movesets that people thought up for him and ended exactly how we imagined, but he still has a lot of mains and is popular with many players, even something simple can be great too.
