I'm being generous with the use of 5 minutes by the way.
    You were expecting a fully functional avatar? Animation-wise Cait Sith has a lot of work done, but they still need to add backstory, quests, balancing, etc. Most of which is done behind the scenes. And they got a LOT of food on their plate right now. It has some abilities, but how many of those can be used directly? At what level? Is it overpowered or underpowered? Which NMs would be critically weak against it? What about the remaining pacts that need to be added for a 'regular' avatar? What needs to be done to prevent another Perfect Defense debacle?

    Face it, if the avatar is too strong, people cry nerf. If it's too weak, people cry garbage. If it's just right, people cry pointless. It doesn't matter what they do, some people are never satisfied.

    Why not expect functional? Walk, attack, and TP move animations are all in the game, the only animations missing are how it would appear and disappear when summoned which even then it has animations that would work. Seeing the TP moves being performed has nothing to do with how much damage they will do, what buffs they will get, or how Cait Sith's quest line will get incorporated. Had they done that, it would have shown they were willing to put forth more than a few minutes worth of work into showing progress on something that has been talked about for 2+ years. Check other forums and you can see just how hacked together that video really is.
