Re: [BUG] Hand placement for every call animation is incorrect

@DocTheGamer

I played the originals as well and I DO remember Shepard’s hands in silly positions when putting the hand to the ear. Anyone who played them can easily recall the terrible IK issues when Shepard did this during the Bay D24 / Blue Suns / Aria conversations when Shepard’s hand would clip through his face while his elbow would disjoint due to IK chains tolerances being to restrictive.

@dominolabustier I'm sure! This thread is about a specific animation that is consistently and markedly worse in the Legendary Edition than it is in the original games, though, which is evident when comparing the linked videos.

@DocTheGamer You're right, and the video comparisons speak for themselves. It's somehow gotten worse in all instances. I knew Miranda doing that animation was weird at the end of ME2 but it's somehow reverted to an uglier state in development or via a patch.

Whatever it is, add it to the growing list of immersion breaking issues.

Ok, I see your point. Just so you know, I didn’t have that occur in my play through, however, bugs don’t always manifest on every instance or on every platform so, such a thing is not unheard of. Then again, I’ve only played through Mass Effect 2 LE once.

With that said, make sure that when you’re reporting this as a bug, that you tag a community manager or moderator, otherwise, they probably won’t notice your post and, it will eventually get buried in the forum.

@EA_Mako could you please pass this along to the developer team, thanks.
