discussion Do Animations improve a game?

[Petermax77]

The story is more important than whether it has animation or not. does it improve the game, most of the time no because most of them are simple 2-3 second loops.

If animations is done right, this a good option, but this is not an obligation

 

[zenekort]

animations always will be good, and shows that the developer likes what he does

 

[protons]

Ya, the pics dont do it for me as much anymore.

Animations make a game better if the models don't look weird, has clipping issues. Also needs good story to go alongside it.

I like how animations a used to emphasise sex scenes. I don’t feel that they are really needed elsewhere in the storyline.

 

[YoloYeet]

Honestly yeah, its lame to just see 2 picture moving back and forward. Sometimes it just funny looking

 

[AnIllusion]

Yeah good animations improve things a lot. If its a really simple animation though, it can detract sometimes.

 

[aimlessoldier]

It has to have some animation to feel more immersive for me. Going through a whole game without animation kinda feels like a very old game now.

thread is more than 2 years old, have you gotten a solid answer yet ?

I know this sounds glib, and others have said it, but it really depends on the animations. For me, animation in a game is only noticeable if it is bad. Otherwise, they barely register.

There are some non animated games that are good too, but I agree, the game feels more worked on and more alive with animations, and also, a lot of players are there only for the goon, so it atracts more people. And even better if they're sounded, with music, but I prefer moans or something like that, I'm tired of the usual nsfw scene incoming music.

I love animations if they're done right. It can take way from the experience it is sloppily done

 

[edgebravesteam]

a game with animations is *usually* better than one without.. unless they are done so poorly.

there are some games with such awful choppy animations, that i'd rather they don't have any lol

 

[Folkvangr]

animations are not needed but they are a nice bonus
that being said, bad or ai animations kill the game for me

 

[kamas]

it;s def need even old game porn have animation style like immoral study or something that around 1990 games so tbh new vn or porn game need some animation not just full arts even now have ai stuff too

 

[boobs54495]

Most of the time yes, but a bad animation can kill a game

 

[amypames]

a lot of the time yea. i dont dislike just images tho if theyre good

 

[jd7007]

I would rather have excellent renders and no animation than ok renders and good animation. Really bad animation is more immersion breaking than no animation for me.

 

[highlrecommend]

Good animations elevate, bad animations are ruinous
