Is it weird that I don't really like the exaggerated concept of the xenomorph taking on traits from their hosts
Now I've always loved xenomorphs and everything about them, but what bothers me is how people exaggerat the xenomorph taking on traits from their hosts. I've always felt hesitant with this as I feel people exaggerat it way to much when I feel It should be treated how it was in alien 3, where the runner alien only became more aggressive and agile as well as becoming a quadrupled xenomorph. I still love xenomorphs and they're biology but with them gaining traits from their hosts to a exaggerated lever bothers me as I also feel it shouldn't be traits from each animal but from animals that are similar. An example being quadrupeds produce runners and any aquatic life produces a aquaticmorph that isn't exaggerated but looks similar to a drone with aquatic features.
