Definitely. It’s kind of unbelievable they’d consider it “niche” when Otter almost completely negates the most bothersome mechanic in the game for its portions. Who cares if it doesn’t apply to the dark world that still transforms the gameplay of a little over half the game.

Also I'd argue for otter being much higher as it allows you to basically infinitely keep a weapon by collecting 2 of them.
