>it feels so stiff and clunky
Clearly you never used the lightning staff. Jumping around and shooting off lightning storms was smooth also controls were super responsive that casting spells didn't feel like a chore.

Sorry man, just need to point out how 3D models look like shit in comparison to stylized art or pixel art almost always because they have no artistic direction whenever it comes up. I fucking hate crap 3D.

...Damn it user. Now I'm hungry

>12 year old learns how sprite animations work for the first time and goes mental

Metal Slug has done that as well, does it make it automatically awful?

Bloodstained looks better than Dragon's Crown, sorry sweaty.

That is NOT how sprite animation normally works and you know it

Metal Slug only does it for specific things like giant bosses, Vanillaware does it for literally all characters. It's lazy and it looks awkward as fuck, like bad flash animations.

You should probably do something about that.

Paizuri or Naizuri. I am not one to judge.
As long as her chest and face, are plastered with my cum.

>Metal Slug only does it for specific things like giant bosses
ACTUALLY because of how many things run independently of each other they separate sprites quite a lot for even the people since matching things like run animations perfectly when changing aim direction is a slut and far easier to just have a different sprite layer.
You'd know this if you did your research.

Beauty of the sprites makes up for the god awful animation.

how vanillaware shit works

Metal Slug's use of sprites and layers and the frequent shifting and hiding of them is legendary for a reason. They timed all this shit perfectly.

YES YES YES

delicious.

they need to move on to 3d models, its way easier to work with than sprites

>3d
uhhhh
youtube.com/watch?v=a36vpLi4WjA

yeah they use bone based animations in 2d. That's not really the same ballpark as hand drawn sprites.

No
for the simple fact that all that smoothness will fucking die. How do you expect to pull all the cartoony stuff off with the same smoothness as sprites with a 3d model? What about the deaths? The sprites are perfect because they allow full and total freedom with no limits. the second they go 3d they lose a lot of that freedom as seen by the game that shall not be named.
Fuck you

I just wish their next game was a """game""" and not a VN, fuck

Vanillaware games are literally cheap as hell but they're also a very small dev. Dragon's Crown was their most expensive game and it cost US $1 million to make. Imagine the budget on the games before that.

I REALIZE THIS MIGHT BE ALL FOR NAUGHT BUT DOES ANYONE HAVE THE MEGA LINK FROM THAT user LAST NIGHT WHO POSTED THAT LEWD TIKTOK VIDEO MADE BY HIS LITTLE SISTER??????

>wanting to kill off one of the most iconic parts of Metal Slug
>SNK tier 3d animation
Fuck no

They probably use a program similar to Spine that uses skeletons/meshes.

I see it as more of a compromise, same as when Guilty Gear X came out and people drooled at the visuals and sprite size but the animation was very choppy in comparison to say, 3rd Strike or Garou MOTW. Even when you get nicely done sprites like KoF XII/XIII, it comes at a heavy cost. According to producer Masaaki Kukino when XII was in development each character took 16-17 months to finish with a team of 10 designers. That lead to the small roster size in XII and SNK probably fucking themselves financially.

People just don't appreciate or understand the cost of beautiful sprites or 2D. Even though it was 3D faking 2D, I still saw retards when Dragon Ball Fighterz was in pre-release call it 'a mobile game' 'looks like a flash game' etc. There are people still playing games today that would equate 2D with an inferior product or lesser experience.

I thought it was good but then again I love beat-em-ups. First Vanilla Ware game I really enjoyed and it didn't feel clunky at all. It took me back to the old days playing the D&D arcade games with friends.

this is why 3d should be used, no one cares about sprites anyway and 3d is cheaper and easier to work with

finally someone who isn't a pedo

>TIKTOK

>Cheaper and easier to work with
>EXCEPT for huge variations and changes in form, shape or design
Which is exactly why MS doesn't work with 3d
Tell me, have you ever seen a transformation as smooth as the zombie one in MS3 plus reverting back to human in other games IN GAMEPLAY?
