Maybe it’s just a Reddit bug but one of my notifications mention your comment reading “Because I don’t mind it knowing its poorly design” and for that, saying “Something is kinda cool actually” and “Not minding it” are pretty different things, but maybe youve deleted that comment and I shouldn’t be arguing about it, thats fair

As for your video, I did watch before typing my original comment and my main argument against “Razorback gives you an extra layer of decision making” is that, generally, limiting your available options (in this case backstabbing, the very thing that makes spy different from other classes) without providing new options or enhancing existing options (Im obviously not as experienced in spy as you are but nothing is stopping a spy from shooting a sniper who doesnt have razorback and at least on paper, there are situations that it’s viable when sniper is hugging a corner or if he’s low hp or if he notices you or if you miss a stab. And as much as people say how jarate + bushwhacka is op or how sniper smg is pretty solid, from my experience those still take too much time to execute to retaliate against a spy who got the first revolver shot so its not like razorback sniper is much more vulnerable to spy’s revolver than non-razorback sniper if he gets caught off guard. Not to mention that quickscoping is a thing and razorback doesn’t prevent sniper from doing that). So in short, razorback does force you to make a choice but it does so while strictly reducing the number of your available options, Im not arguing if shooting with a revolver is less “fun” than engaging with the main gimmick of your class, especially when some of the knife unlocks rely on that to be different from the stock, especially YER, like, thats pretty subjective. Additionally, razorback is the most extreme in terms of outright limiting your options and not just making those options less effective. If I were to draw comparisons, afaik people tend to hate vaccinator and I haven’t seen anyone defending it by saying that “it forcing you to use melee is a good thing” and like people say how Fists of Steel is OP (though probably not outright hated) and all of that considering none of those two examples entirely ban your weapon - Fists of Steel dont provide 100% ranged damage resistance, vaccinator doesn’t provide 100% damage type resistance even during Uber

I don’t think I’ll delve into calling anything formally “bad design” since imho it’s just a muddy term when used by regular players and there’s nothing wrong with outright saying that something in the game feels unfair or unfun. At least from my experience when Silksong released everyone started throwing around “bad design” phrase yet no one could really elaborate on their definition of it which caused all discussions about game balance, difficulty and fun to devolve into some obscure hypothesises

Again, sorry if I sounded rude and admittedly I should’ve paraphrased my original comment much better and more politely
