Need for Archer Animation Revamp

[Alhanelem]

Its a game. I think they can cut some of the realism out to make things look a bit nicer for archers. I agree with the OP. And also all the melee classes have to deal with the slide effect during combat animations too.

No, it looks as it should look. Just because it's not attractive to you doesn't mean it's not how it should be.

Actually no, its not how its intended to look. You never played alpha and phase 1 did you?

The original animations were perfect, then people complained.

Those are examples; some rough crappy sketches. The animations could be dramatized if it wasnt for people going on about the sliding while you animate.

It doesn't seem like I'm the only one that has a problem with the animations. Just saying some things I think need some improvement. No need to get all negative Nancy on me.

Still an issue in 2020! Coming to Archer for the first time, the animations are TERRIBLE. The bizarre flailing jelly arms and the look like the upper torso is a robot jammed onto an unresponsive pair of legs is just so JARRING!

They're bad alone, but when compared to other classes and even enemies in the game? This is an embarrassment! I can only imagine this issue was put on the backburner and then forgotten, but it's still hideous.
