Personalities need some polish

khele23eb17_ESO · July 2016

When jumping with a personality other than the default one equipped your character will very often go into his idle animation mid-jump. So the legs do the jump but the upper body behaves as if you were standing still and starts acting out your idle animation. It looks ridiculous and is quite annoying. Heres what I mean:

I find the personalities rather underwhelming overall. I was excited about the Assassin Personality, especially since it had a walk as well because the male walk in this game is so absolutely terrible. But with that Personality on your character walks around like John Wayne. The CONSTANT fiddling with the knife while just standing is also pretty terrible. Obsess much? Otherwise the Idle animations and leans are great. But the constant knife play kinda ruins it.

So now the new Personalities. Drunk is going to be VERY popular and I expect at least half of Tamriel to go on a permanent drinking binge. Alcholism rates will skyroocket. It's funny and I like it all around. I probably won't buy it though just because I don't HAVE any alcoholic characters so would almost never use it as I don't go in for the "just because it's funny" stuff so much.

The Melancholy, Happy and Furious Personalities.... The Happy one is cute and nicely subtle. The Melancholy one has some great poses but is overall too twitchy. It doesn't feel like melancholy at all in action but is more like the "heartbroken" emote. Tone it down a little. The Furious one is just awful. Your character just basically looks like a lunatic with a teeth grinding problem. Sadly, none of these Personalities has an associated walk. Makes it feel like you really skimped on them.

The personalities just look too extreme. It's overacted and has the subtlety of a sledgehammer.

Would be nice for them to polish personalities. Chances of that happening are basically nonexistent though....

They are charging rl money for them, so they either need to make them dirt cheap or do a better job.

Not sure of its on pc as well but on ps4 the assasin personality animation will take priorities of combat and interacting I could be running up to a boss weapons sheathed try to hit flurry and my character will make sure she finishes admiring that friggan dagger before even attempting to attack. Resulting in like 3-7 presses of the same skill before she gets her $$$$ together. Also when gathering ya know tou and another player racing to a node or a chest I reach chest first or ore node whatever and god forbid she can cancel the idle animation before attempting to harvest normally turning a one button press gather into a press followed by 5-9 secs of dagger twirling before she bends down to gather a node that was taken by the other guy because she has dagger ocd

The personalities need a LOT more polish. They don't even work properly on khajiits at all - it bugs their eyes out and does weird things to their eyebrows. I reported this bug back when testing the DB and it's STILL not been fixed.

The drunk one is the only personality that seems to work properly. What's the bet that one ends up 4x the price of the others? :P

I like the look of drunk, but it's the other personalities that I'd really like to have. But I won't buy them if they just cause you to do a happy/sad/angry idle when you aren't moving -- there are addons for PC that can already do this, and they'll even let you customize what emotes play.

Personalities need to change combat animations as well, like heavy and light attacks, run, sprint, and drawn weapon idle. 95% of time in this game is spent in combat stance. But thats unreal since they cant even make current ones work properly .Waste of money.
