I agree that it’s a cooperative game, so having an op character doesn’t matter for 99% of things, but I will say that for speedrunning things do get a bit boring when there is a defacto best playstyle, because it just devolves into all of the top runs being the same.

Kinda like on Dome Keeper how the top runs are mostly Acessor using Tesla dome. It’s just a bit bland, but not a ‘game is unplayable’ kinda issue.
