Missing transition animations for NPCs in quests.

FullMax · September 14

Where did the NPC animation in the story quests go? I thought it shouldn't be there, but I watched old walkthrough videos, and there, for example, Quen climbs the wall, and today I went through the storyline of the thieves' guild, and in the first introductory quest, Quen simply teleports behind the gate without animation.

The same thing with Isobel's first story quest: when we take the sword fragment, Isobel, instead of jumping off the cliff, simply teleports to the bottom.

Still relevant. No animation.

It amazes me how they put in work to make these stories look good, and now the team's goal is "if it isn't part of the Solstice story, it's irrelevant."

I remember I did the Summerset story a few years back since I joined the game late, and even then every character with Dawnbreaker had the old weapon-surfing bug. That was the central plot element of the story, and you couldn't even see it since it was underground every time.

PTS testers don't test old stories, nor should we have to. They should not be breaking this much.

That's why I test and talk about the problem I find.
