I want Andromeda to be this entire galaxy where everyone walks funny
This is the weirdest thing for me. DA:I was cross gen too.

yeah, sorry, i got confused
couldn't remember if it was pre-pbr frostbite 3 or frostbite 2.
the engine has undergone a lot of changes since then tho, so whatever lip sync tech they were using might have been incompatible or had issues.

It wouldn't kill you to wait for reviews. Shinobi is just one guy, I'd never buy a $60 game based on one guy's opinion.

Yeah, you should wait for reviews.
I like Shinobi, but was anyone expecting anything less than glowing praise from him?
It's a bioware problem, not a frostbite one. Frostbite is definitely capable of better than what Andromeda does with it in regards to animations.
I don't think this in anything to do with uncanny valley. That occurs when animation/robots look and behave too similar to real human beings which isn't the case here.
I am thinking there are parts of it I will enjoy as well. But it's really looking like an incredibly unpolished patchwork quilt of varying degrees of quality at this point. I mean, the game is not even out yet and there is already a greatest hits compilation of absolutely woeful flaws that many budget games do not even suffer from. It's beyond the typical BioWare jank.
What on earth? Why is she looking in a completely different direction? I don't know why but I find that irritating...
It's not.

I thought this was supposed to be like the best series in gaming or something? Did the original trilogy have animations this bad as well?
Eh...doesn't hurt to wait for more opinions.

Considering a lot of people have said the start of the game isn't the best, I'm surprised EA let it be on ea access to begin with lol.
Reeeealy hoping the sum of its parts turns out good in the end.

It is the real Pro version, although it has a bunch of post-processing on it by Sunshi to make it look extra pre-rendered-like.

Bioware what?! Holy shit. Most people are coming off Horizon and Zelda and were treated to this?!
I'll hold off on buying until I see reviews from gaffers.
Disappointed.

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
The "my face is tired" clip should have delayed this game by a year really it is so bad. EA stands for Early Access again this year it seems.
Shinobi most likely has friends that he knows are on the cusp of studio closure.

He had drinks with the devs, got the game early and is generally a fan of the series...
What's the chance of him slating the game on an open forum?
none
Par for the course.
I remember seeing this shit in the ME3 demo and thinking that it had to be some shitty placeholder hand-made animation and it'd be replaced by a proper mocapped animation in the full release. NOPE.
That fucking game was riddled with ridiculous looking shit.

This is the best !
I quickly/horribly shoved Aloy's larger iris/smaller pupil eyes over the existing pale irises and wandering pupils:
Less wired/more human.
Mass tweet this to the team please.
It's literally a one day of work fix.

B team is handling Dragon Age while the A team is working on the new IP.

This is what I hate about gaming today. 15 years ago games had to be fucking finished when released. Sure, games are more complex now or whatever, but still.
A couple impressions from about half an hour I spent playing the trial yesterday. First, like everyone is saying, the faces look super plastic. Especially the father (Pathfinder). It looks like someone by accident bumped the specular on his face to max and never noticed the mistake. Either that or he has some terrible issue with sweating. Also, textures on faces are seemingly very low res, again, especially looking at the beard on the father.
I also started playing this game with my girlfriend, who I just recently went through the original trilogy with, and she immediately said something seemed wrong with the female Ryder's face. She said that she seems to always be smiling, and her chin always seems to be held up a little to high. This makes her look sort of clueless and inquisitive, and I guess they said they wanted this game to be a little more positive than the previous trilogy, but it really looks out of place when something dramatic is going on.

My friends don't believe me when I say sometimes NeoGAF can be funnier than any funny websites on the internet.
And then I show them this thread.
