Silverbolt, chivalrous knight, now can't go a sentence without talking about how dark his heart is now?
It was like they wanted to use new characters, but didn't want to pull a Rhinox on all of them, so they fundamentally changed them to better fit the more cliched archetypes so the stories could be simpler.

The new characters were mostly fine. I had no issues with the likes of Botanica or whats his name (The one with 2 beast modes), but the only one that played a major role was Nightscream, to my ire...

I felt Rattrap and Silverbolt were okay, in that I could sort of see how they could end up like that. I mean, it takes a bit of justification, but it's possible. Like how Rattrap's confidence came mostly from his resourcefulness, which was all but eliminated in his new form, or how Silverbolt was broken.

I mean, it's takes a bit of mental gymnastics, but it's possible to reconcile.

Rhinox, on the other hand...
