>I do find it interesting that in both versions of the fight Gunvolt is really trying not to have to kill Copen in self defense.
It's weird considering how willing he is to kill in any other circumstance. Copen is a well known adept targeting serial killer by the time of the first game, so he's just as bad if not worse than some of the people GV is killing. Verges on bad writing, even, unless people are right about Gunvolt being lowkey racist towards other adepts, influenced by the Muse, and/or sexually attracted to him. I also found it fucking weird how he sympathizes with Copen's reasoning for killing all the adepts (an adept that my dad was torturing may have accidentally killed him), and seems to have some deference and respect towards him in GV3, but shows nothing but disgust when adepts like Elise, Stratos, Tenjina/Zonda, Asroc bring up their sob story justifications, which are a lot more substantial than Copen's.
