I know. It was one thing I loved about ESO. It wasn't arcady like the other games. Now the attack animations are so cartoonish. And that ready stance that looks like you're trying to fart or something. It's awful.

ummm why are we still redoing animations at this point......

I like 2h animations. No more huge delay in my heavy attack.

I don't mind the new staff animations. Seem more fluid than the original ones.

I don't like the new staff animations at all. I see that they tried to make it so you could see who is using which kind of staff and also make the heavy attacks feel more responsive.
However, not only does it look awful switching between Destro/Resto - suddenly standing in a totally different posture, wtf - the heavy attacks are more looking as if someone would be playing with a little stick in his one hand.
I see the approach for the Fire/Frost and the Resto animations but the Lighting Staff heavy looks really weird.
What all have in common though, is that the character no longer seems to use his full body for the attack, rather stand put like some scholar who usually never goes out and yet acting with his right arm as if the attack would require him to put all the force in he could come up with.

I did only use the staffs so far, but my friend looked pretty weird with his shield as well x) .

The new destro staff animations are awful in 1st person. The way your character pulls their arm to the right as they wind up a heavy attack takes my attention away from the crosshair and my target. Also, it feels like they made the wind up time longer.

Idk about that - but I cannot stand the pause I seem to see in BoL.

Oh I *do* like the staff 'standing still' pose better though - with the end resting on the ground rather than hanging awkwardly by your side.

I also dont understand the new 2h animations, I thought they wanted to put more weight feel into the animtion, not just responsiveness

i like the new adjustment to how i attack with sword n shield but passive looks like im leaning over to loose a silent but deadly

Only the light attacks need some work. They look unnatural.

The fire and resto staff attacks look odd, my other hand is just sorta there...like an afterthought...

The standing animation is awesome!

fire resto did make my DK pyro look like a badass with strutting confidence

I highly dislike the new heavy restoration attack. It looks like the user has abdominal pain.

The old resto attack animation was actually quite good: looked very natural and fluid.
