The fact that they can't wear apparel is a big deal breaker for me and the main reason I don't like em.

Hot take: I like ancients MORE than moderns. The fact I don't have to dress them is actually a relief for me, and they're (relatively) cheap to gene.

-Almost every time people complain about the dragon anatomy in official art looking off, they're nitpicking. 99% of the time there's no actual anatomy mistakes.

-Shock Switch is unplayable in levels under very difficult. It's way too slow and having to fast forward constantly is annoying.

Every time something new comes out, people are shocked and aghast that the art is busy and a little hard to follow, or otherwise not immediately as nostalgic as their current favorite thing. . This is because people like complicated, busy dragons, but are not used to the NEW busy design.

Undertides look fine. Aberrations look fine. Everlux look fine.

Y'all don't complain that Spirals make the site impossible to use because you're used to them already.
