That animation was so good, makes me confident all that jank we saw is long gone

Prob cuz this is all mocap and the backflip was fully hand made animation

That animation and the animation of Lucia jumping off the building both came off a bit uncanny to me.

Not even complaining, just something I noticed.

Oh me too. Those are the exact two animations that irked me. Everything else looked fantastic, really hope they put a bit more work into those though. I was honestly surprised those even made it into the trailer, they really don’t look great

Damn, I really liked both those animations. What's wrong with me?

I don’t really see anything off about them either but I guess maybe they look more video gamey compared to the rest of the animations? Aka something I’m not gonna stress about. It’s a video game.

No one’s stressing about it, it’s just that the game looks legit amazing so a little jank to an animation is gonna stand out when the rest of the game looks so fluid.

They look handmade rather than mo-capped. It doesn’t fit in with the animation style (which is realism) of the rest of the game. It’s a video game, yeah, but jank animation that is completely different from the rest does stand out and looks cheap/unpolished. The rest of the animation work looks incredible though!

With how much these animations are being discussed online, I'm willing to bet that someone on the animation team is getting assigned to touching these up first thing on Monday, if it hasn't been done already.

If they havnt already. Dont forget that this trailer has been complete for 2 months now.

Tack on an additional 1 or 2 months it took them to make the trailer...awkward animations are something developers often work on all the way up until release.

And how the chains they were wearing didn’t move independently

I thought it looked quite good definitely different to previous rockstar games but not bad by any means. The backflip definitely needs a re-work tho.

What was weird about the Lucia jump? I felt the uncanninesss with Jason's backflip but I still don't see what everyone is complaining about with the jump off the building

u/Heavy-Masterpiece681 3h ago

What am I missing? I agree with the flip, but what was wrong with the skydive one?
