>>963190interestingly though Fromsoft uses 3ds max only (well and zbrush), yet they have the best animations in the industry.
>>963191>the best animations in the industryyou are joking, right
>>963199don't be shy, anon, what better studios did you have in mind? of course capcom's animations are pretty amazing too. and in terms of what they actually do i prefer games like Monster Hunter over all the flipping and shit in fromsoft games, but for what they are, fromsofts animations are the best of what they can be imo.
>>963200their character animations are stiff as fuck, lots of snapping, clipping etc. just watch random walk cycles and they are pretty terrible>what better studios did you have in mind?literally any triple A studio
>>963206>literally any triple A studionow that's just not true in the slightest, especially with how many AAA studios make use of animations that have literally no momentum inside the animation itself, and then apply it to an attack that makes you ice-skate into the enemy's face. especially in games like the Assassin's Creed series
>>963207small/no momentum in vidya animation is expected and Fromsoft animations are far from best in the industry, I don't know what point are you trying to makeass creed uses motion matching and a lot of procedural shit, hard to compare with Fromsoft's approach of recycling the same keyframe animations in multiple projects
>>963210>ass creed uses motion matching and a lot of procedural shitthen how come there's almost no real transition between many animations in ass creed and everything just kinda snaps.i think in terms of character animation Monster Hunter World took the cake with how even every direction and what direction you came out of during a roll animation influences the recovery and startup
from soft recycles all their assets and all their games are exactly the same, going back at least 20 years
>>963213nothing wrong with reusing great animations if you're gonna iterate in other ways and the game is the same type of game anyway. u could argue that a game like elden ring is only really possible with years of iteration.
>>963214>great animationstheir animations are bottom of the barrel
>>963215you're completely disingenuous lol
>>963217i'm not, but whatever
>>963188I choose shitty 3D PornEasiest my life has ever beenWork 10 hours a week, make 7k a month

Though I'm sure you're considered the cool rich kid among the Starbucks baristas.
