That being said, the developers even stated in the hour long video that they didnt even want to show what they had developed at gamescon because it doesnt accuratly portray what the game will look like a few months from now. Never have I heard a developer say anything close to that during a press conference. I think everyone needs to just relax on the whole issue until AT LEAST the beta begins and we get a better idea what we are looking at as far as a finished product goes. Gamescon was barely a month ago, and it looks like they have a few more months of development before we see a beta.
they did do a great job and im excited for ARR, and i respect the dev team greatly for all they've done, i wish i could have been a part of it myself lol.
but it sounds like it was a confimed decision to take out these animations, which sounds like its not in there list of things to do and it wont come back. im hoping that they will see that people do want these animations and choose to allot some extra time to put these back on their task list.
your right that its unfinished and there is still more to be done, but if we wait till beta with no sign of these getting implemented then at that time its most likely too late. best to let them know now so plans can be made in a timely manner
