Rayton appreciation thread - the F.I.S.T. hero is one of modern Metroidvania's coolest protagonists

I'm really enjoying my time with F.I.S.T. - Forged in Shadow Torch (minus some much-needed polish on the PS4 version; the texture popping is bad. Like very, very bad.) but I'm enthralled at just how much fun it is to play as Rayton, the badass bunny hero lugging around a piece of a giant mech suit on his back and punching, drilling and whipping enemy robots into submission.

His English VO is great, and his battle animations are smooth and thrilling to watch (10 hours in, I still get a kick out of the slowed-down "execution" style finishing moves). In a genre that, for better or worse, seems to love mute protagonists who just sort of act as an "avatar" for the player while they go treasure-hunting (Hollow Knight, Blasphemous, Iconoclasts, I'm sure there are a few more I can't think of right now), it's great to have a hero with a bit more cinematic presence and personality.

Rayton is an instant classic.
