It's not that it's a bad character model, it's just that he was kind of shoe-horned in and didn't really do much at all. He was stale... Honestly it wouldn't have mattered as much if he were another Mudokon. But with this giant blob thing here, there's absolutely no explanation. So we're all just supposed to assume they worship giant blob people now? K. :u
I think I would have been able to like that idea too if they just gave us a little more exposure to it all. It's just sort of...there. There's no reason to care about these guys or remember that they're there at all.
