The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin

I quit the game a few months after Escanor was released, and honestly, I have no desire to come back. The game offers very little meaningful new content, barely gives players enough summons to work with, and constantly removes content only to bring it back later and advertise it as “NEW CONTENT.” The character design is another major issue. A lot of characters’ abilities simply don’t match who they are supposed to be, and Escanor is probably one of the biggest examples of this. When you have a character with such a strong identity and history, their gameplay should actually reflect that. The entire progression and summon system also feels designed around making you spend as much as possible. You summon for a character, only to find out that they are mediocre without specific supports. Then you have to spend even more resources trying to get the support character that makes them viable. By the time you finally have the full team, another character or mechanic comes along and pushes the previous one aside. The combat system has the same problem. I think every character should feel like a complete, functional unit on their own. Supports should enhance what a character already does, not be practically mandatory for them to perform. Right now, some characters require an absurd amount of setup just to deal meaningful damage — stacking what feels like six different abilities and three Ultimates worth of buffs and effects — only to repeat the entire support rotation again for the next big attack. It turns the game from actually playing a character into managing a complicated spreadsheet of buffs, supports and rotations. The game has a great foundation, a huge amount of potential, and an IP with incredibly strong characters. But instead of making each character feel powerful and unique on their own, the current design makes them feel dependent on increasingly complicated teams and mechanics.
