Most unique Rev so far. Always expected a more medieval armor. Also love the multi skull attack. HK's new look is okay, i guess. Pinkies are interesting because their general proportions differ. It's not like Arachnos still having a turret above their heads, their whole model changed. And having someone riding them is also new. Classic Imps are also interesting because again, the "base" changed. So there's going to be changes in animations and movement but i wonder about attacks too. Arachnotron is interesting, even seems to have multiple eyes. The turret is also less like a plasma gun this time. I do wonder if they have something similar to grenades or is that tied to UAC tech. Hell ships in Immora felt underrated. So many models in the game that are barely seen. It's part of why i wish these games had more models to showcase in model showcase or even art galleries to show more stuff.

The Pinky looks like it has more mechanical depth this time around than any of the other demons shown. The imp is probably what I'm the most excited about at the moment, I'm happy to see the stronger versions return over their agile but relatively weak modern counterparts.
