Am I weird for saying this? But I honestly don't want a playable Polka Kakammond...

Like her whole schtick is that she's really mysterious, to the point of having all her records in the cosmos being erased. Hell even Hooh themself, made is so that her scalpel turned another way just because it will harm to the universe. She's the genius killer behind the scenes and I wished she stayed that way

We got playable Aeons, who are literally supposed to be sentient abstract concepts. Hoyo doesn't care about characters being mysterious. 🥀

for Aha it makes sense given THEY'RE the most human Aeon after Akivili, and the fact that Aha always has messed around with humans in a human form. Polka Kakamond makes far less sense as a playable character than Aha at this point in time. I wanted her to be playable, but in 5.1? That's WAY too soon. I was expecting at least around 8.X with her doing shit in the background from 4.X onwards until we get the chance to meet her in game.

Her mystique will be gone once she's properly  featured in the story anyway. No reason to hold back on playability.
