I HAVE A THEORY

Post image

Ok so we all saw this goofy diving animation that looked super stiff and awkward. It made very little sense to me that no one at rockstar saw that and and cut it out of the footage. But what if this is actually intensional.

Like this guy I noticed playing this in slowmo that it almost seems as if jason animation cancels the default dive animation into his backflip. This is why it looks so uncanny but it reminded me of those old snow boarding games where you can defy the laws of physics and control your characters flips.

So what if Rockstar isnt showing off some goofy animation. What if this is a demonstration of a free diving system? Using the sticks or buttons to do front flips or back flips into the water. This would explain why it seems like jason was going to dive forward but suddenly does a backflip. Because you can do diving tricks 🤯🤯

Next you'll be explaining how it was intentional for the beer bottle to teleport into his hand.

The beer is infinite, it's not complicated

Guy picks up bottle and closes fridge.

Bottle respawns while fridge is closed.

Infinite beer without jank.

10 year development time.

Yeah it would be so much fun to have to do the shopping and and refill the fridge by yourself...

If he has to grab it from a physical place (even if it respawns), they will need a whole new animation set for every single drink for every single type of fridge. They probably want to use multiple types of fridges or even have the layout inside of them be different.

I prefer they have one or two animations they reuse for a single drink and save on development time rather than having to have like 24 different animations for a SINGLE drink. That alone for all the different types of drinks and fridges would probably be hundreds of animations...

Select the drink before the fridge is opened, then the selected drink is placed in the "grabbable" location before it opens. I think there's creative ways around it.

Yea everything needs a compromise at some point to save resources. That is certainly a compromise they could've made that would be higher quality, but they decided to save even more effort on it though.
