    Heated animations just feel wrong to me, as a permanent change to your basic combo. Running into battle and the first thing you do is a dramatic sideways flip as you fire your weapon. I don't even know the right way to describe it but it makes me feel uneasy - it's not the right motion that matches the action the character is doing. The old animations were fine.

    Not a fan of gun kata, eh? Makes you feel uneasy seems a bit much, seeing as you slay humanoids, fling fire and bring allies back to life from near death, but side-flipping while shooting a gun makes you uneasy? This is a fantasy game - let it be fantastical.

    This is not only a weak argument, but an easily reversible one. This is a fantasy game, why can't my regular bullets deal as much as a big explosion. Why are you not in favour of more options if thats your stance, let people live out their fantasy better with an option to use other animations.

    Just as an example to show why the argument is weak, if next patch zenos flew at the moon in his underwear and cut it in half, and saved the universe, why would that be a bad thing, This is a fantasy game - let it be fantastical.

    I think that should be the overall message of the thread. Though it would be pretty out of place to have MCH just stand still and... shoot, while every other job is loaded with dance moves. If someone really just wants to not move, they can play BLM.
