View submission: Chapter 6 Season 1 - 鬼 HUNTERS

This battle pass/chapter reinforces that Japanese culture and history is just *so damn rich* with vibrant creativity and life.

Myths and Mortals was *pretty* cool, but honestly could've captured more of the grandiosity and mythos of Greek and Roman culture ala Assasin's Creed Odyssey. This Chapter feels like a love letter and celebration of the culture of Japan. There's just an extra layer of intentionality in a lot of the battle passes, the boss fights, it's just super cool to see.

Will there be bugs and things that need to be fixed? Yes. Will people cry about the meta and how it breaks competitive play? Sure, and they're valid, but just from a human creative effort standpoint, I think this is a 10/10.

Yeah, this season is impressing the hell out of me already - as chaotically hard as the fighting will be (just for me, personally), the adjustments are looking solid.

The movement stuff introduced synchs well w/the cultural choices, & the architecture is really conducive to the mobility.

I'm impressed, & looking forward to discovering the neat places on the map.
