@neh791 The overworld design and music is the only thing this game absolutely never misses on. It’s just a shame that the money making and bad storytelling decisions so strongly overshadow those teams work.
@durandalcomplex It’s all the same mindless flash and no substance whatsoever with what the camera movements actually convey in the story…. This is why it’s so annoying to me. Like why put so much money and labor into something so shallow?
@durandalcomplex Pretty sure all these shots are rotoscoped off of simplistic animated 3d models. That’s why they love to overcompensate with way too much detail in the hair - so it doesn’t look wooden and awkward
I think Sigrid may be my least favorite Hoyo design ever just because it’s so boring, forgettable and lazy… Promeia and Ms. Snake Leotard were egregious but at least memorable. Sigrid is just blond bare thigh lady with spear #600
@divamondIvr@hubbowastaken You can tell they’re rushing through the massive pile of BS they set up (ten stone hearts, lord ravagers etc) in an overly convoluted mess bc they have piles of characters to sell, and the storytelling sure does suffer for it.
@divamondIvr@hubbowastaken Explaining that he’s been playing the long game by fathering Himeko for a long time is one thing but I agree that they should have let this all have some room to breathe before having to fight him.
@divamondIvr What’s frustrating is that the boots on the ground character writing and story pacing are waaaaay better than Amphoreus, but you can tell from the top down (Shaoji, other executives n directors) it’s the same old dogshit.
@divamondIvr Literally the only one who wanted to “win” was Fulwish in that it was just a secondary consequence of her either mutating or killing everyone lmao
I honestly wish they’d revamp it rather than trashing because, other than the one arm out of her coat sleeve for some reason, it’s my fav design in the whole game
no healthcare. no vibrant middle class. crumbling infrastructure. grifters in every office. so all we have are tools and symbols of violence to flaunt that are antiquated useless to win wars but only useful to bomb poor third world countries. happy 250th
@lyrieeeee Oh and Shaoji…. I assume that he’s the one torturing the art team while he’s paid to play with his mech and Sparkle dolls for the 300th time
