Just reading the Twins Patch notes
TL;DR:
I really really don't like the Power changes to The Twins. Just reading how their interactions have been changed with pounces, how Charlotte only gets a Haste, and how their Killer instinct is just gone. It sucks.
The Long Haul:
The numbers changes and the cooldown shortening, as well as the stun reductions; those are fine and welcome.
But The other changes remove a lot of the nuances that made them unique, and makes them into a Hit and Run Killer that completely shoves Charlotte into the corner. Charlotte's ability to detect survivors by proximity of Victor is an amazing but limited tool that I always got so much use out of, and these changes removing that just fill me with a deep sense of sadness; Victor is basically gonna be best used as hit and run, but he doesn't have built in detection, so he'll be a slightly worse Legion unless he commits to the down then and there.
Also, they introduced Incapacitated. But these changes are going to remove the very status they brought to the game. It's just so weird.
I was hoping that their changes would just be numbers and stun reduction, and maybe a requirement for more precise hits, or a window crawl he desperately needs.
The way they are now is very clunky and can feel miserable if you make mistakes, but when you DO play well, when you make those great lunge hits; you feel amazing! And Charlotte having even something as small as the detection ability was a nice and useful means of surveillance.
I was hoping the change would maybe be that Charlotte gains rage for when Victor is kicked or taken hostage, and that when full she'd become deadlier on her own (Haste, Lethal Hits, anything really). But to read that this update basically pushes her all the way outta the picture basically... it's just awful feeling.
I would've even preferred it if Victor's Attack caused him to latch onto both Healthy and Injured Survivors. At least then his detection would still be useful.
Also, with the changes to Charlotte being able to ALWAYS recall on command, that removes the need to plan accordingly for where you release/send out Victor. It is a weakness, but one that made sense, one that required the player to adapt and plan for. But now you just click and boom he's back in your chest.
Please, I love them and they are the only Killer I play with a consistent satisfaction despite how grueling it can be.
I know I'm one person, and that it's this big joke that "There's only 3 Twins mains" or people saying they had no idea they existed. This update is just gonna erase so many of their qualities; the Incapacitated, the Killer Instinct, the danger and calculation of when to attack a healthy or injured survivor.
