And how unbelievably cursed it is.

Like, Bill? Ash? I get it.

Kind of.

Like you imagine they get used as DIY wall decorations as many times as they have and they'd get a bit more insecure, but I can see it.

But Dwight? Feng? Claudette? No one should see Dwight standing upright with as much poise and confidence as he does now, and it's absolutely terrifying to see first thing you run inside the shack.

The previous idle pose conveyed it perfectly. Hunched, looking left and right, afraid and unsure. They look like pretty much how you'd expect someone being hunted in the woods in almost literally Hell might. But now they look like you're approaching them, and you can't beat the ######### out of them without getting closer.

It's just plain jarring.

Personally, I don't really care about all the other animation changes. It's whatever, looks weird, i'll get used to 'em, maybe even enjoy them. My life isn't ruined because injured Bill looks more like he's trying to run and hold a bowling ball to his stomach at the same time.

But the idle stance.. γ‚΄γ‚΄γ‚΄γ‚΄Β

    My goal in life is to get my posture as good as DBD survivors have theirs

    i swear to god dwight standing up straight like that is so cursed, especially the elf skin, god.

    I remember loading into a match as killer, and after like, a minute? everyone started having idle crows, so i went over there and they were all just standing in like, a line. just.. staring.

    101/10 would play again

    Some people said the soulless rigidness of the new idle animations works well if you consider the entity is slowly eating away their soul/emotions...

    personally...

    I'd rather have the old starting idle, and the new upright one as a brief 'eeek' moment when the TR starts. maybe

    The animations right now when loading in are pure nightmare fuel.
