discussion Animated or not?

[Insig]

Its always nice to see an animation but im cool with there being none.

 

[qrew53]

definitely animation

Animations are great in a game if done well, but I'd take really nice stills over a bad animation any time.

animated show great movement,picture show great potential

 

[Gman851]

Games with animation seem to be more immersive

I prefer animated but if the renders are great it´s ok if it's not, too.

For me, the barrier to appreciate an animation is higher than to appreciate a still scene. This means that for most games, animations actually lessen the immersion on the game (particularly the 5 frame low effort animations some devs produce). Good animations may hold my interest, but I'd say most of the times they break the flow of the game, and as such are not worth it.

I personally don't care either way, although poor animations can ruin a scene/game.

 

[JustAnotherLurker]

for me it entirely depends on the quality

Animated

 

[User_101810]

Animations for sure

 

[St_Dmitry]

Animated, but i think if animation takes more than 3 sec - sometimes it's just too much and looks worse than some simple animation

Either put in a good animation, or do no animation and spend the effort on expanding the game in other ways. Mid or poor animations don't contribute to a scene, IMO.

I do like animations if done right.
Just pictures combined with a good story is great aswell.

[Zauldjamin]

A nice mix of both animated scenes and images.

 

[ACWBOY]

I prefer if there are animations

 

[capt21]

Just imagine a game like ''Midlife Crisis'' before being abandonned with good animations OMG

I prefer animated games. I do not mind still images if there are many for a single scene. I hate it when there is a lot of dialogues in the same still image.

 

[DisguisedLizard]

I don't really mind it but it's cool if it has it
