Give all personalities seperate combat animations.

Commandment

I don't understand why my zombie character goes from an unbalanced bozo to a "I'M SOBER AND READY FOR BATTLE" when ever I sheath my weapon. Or if I'm a drunkard my character gains all balance when he enters combat. It would be nice to see a different animation replacer,

that's a lot of personalities to make new animations for. you're asking for a lot. not that i don't want it, but it's just a ginormous ask.

You realize how logistically absurd and nigh impossible what you are asking for is, right?

As cool as it would be, the level of work involved would be far to much.

idk how much work it would be they should definitely do it
at least for future personalities

i also imagine some personalities wouldnt need combat animation changes or only changes for specific weapons like what they did with emotes...

Not really, most of our animations are copy and paste. - generic

All staffs have the same animation.- Poke Jab stick- Slam stick on ground - Charge Poke jab
T-hander - Overhead Swing - Uppercut - Sweep
Dual Wield - Many pokes - Unsatisfying Spin
Sword and Shield - Jab - Sweep - Bash

Generic -Summon animation- Raising hands for buffs - throwing

But to be perfectly clear, I'm asking for the stance not all combat animations. I dont really mind the swings, but I find it weird how a zombie goes grrr rawwwhhh errr flailing arms around but doesnt look feral in battle stance. or if you got the drunk personality you also have a off balance carrying weapon stance.

If ESO needs anything, I believe this is what it is. Not wanting to compare ESO to a dead game like WOW, but WOW has it good with each race (personality) animations. I don't want to feel like I'm playing the same character since they all stand the same in combat.- details make a big difference.

Mhm I agree. People complaining that it's too much effort, while yes zos should focus on fixing what needs fixed first...ya know, the plethora of issues that have been around for 7 years..
But at the same time, they're TAKING the effort to even add different personalities into the game in the first place. But they're stopping short by not pushing it where it should go. It's the effort and details into a game that makes it feel alive. It sounds like a worthwhile endeavor.

Mara's mercy, now i want my Duchess fighting anims! 'learn some manners", slap!

I just want personalities to have custom runs and sprints again instead of just being a glorified idle pose.

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that new animations are not being added to the game so that it can still run on older consoles and pc's.

I agree. Too much work would increase the size of the game on our machines.

Same for races. Animation for different races and perso would be great if ZOS planned to revamp some part of the game.

They still need to create mythical non-working items. Continue to fix servers. And follow the non-existent balance of classes. Animations for personalities? pf...

I have also said this many Times. Animations are a factor that is holding back this game. I actually miss some of the old Animations at launch. A horder overland and new Animations would give this game a new breath of life
