Petition: Keep the Animation!~

[IveraIvalice]

You shouldn't have to conciously cancel animations. Everybody wants their actions to go off as soon as possible, so who wouldn't try to do that? It makes a lot more sense to just not have the animations that everybody will cancel in the first place.

i think this might have been something i said but not sure because the poster isnt included in the quote.
canceling is not something you have to do manually, it happens automatically by excecuting another animation, it could be an action, a movement, or anything else.
just like when your casting a spell (during the part when your able to move without animation lock holding you)
and you run away in another direction, thats canceling the cast animation to make the run animation play, you didnt manually click something.
thats why there should be no problem with keeping these animations. both gameplay and visuals can be great without conflicting each other and have no downside

Better ask about this on live producer letter. I would take any changes needed to make gameplay better than now. If they considered to drop some animation,Im all for it. If you said it is possible to keep the current animation without interfering the gameplay, someone should point this out on the letter.

thats a good idea, though i do know that it can be done, unless they have some weird specific issue going on in there engine that doesnt allow it.
i think what i would rather ask is if we will see a return of those animations since a good amount of the community seem to want them back, as long as it doesnt oppose gameplay. specifically combat

It would be a nice thing to ask, for sure. "The current animations, while nice, were removed in the interest of better gameplay. We'd like to know if this is permanent, or if we can look forward to reworked animations that both look good and complement the new gameplay mechanics."

Maybe I should ask that myself. How to shrink that to 140 characters...
