More character animations? YES PLEASE!

How cool would it be if certain characters had unique animations to certain effects. For example instead of having dodge look like the character is staring blankly into the void, it would cause the character to move around a bit. At least do it for the characters where dodge is important. Old Ben, Dooku, Darth maul doing his air flips like in Episode one etc.

Has anyone thought of deflection/block actually looking like they blocked it with their light saber or shrugged it off with their armor? What about having a different flinch animation when a crit has been taken, suggesting that it really hurt.

The game is awesome and i just want to make it even cooler. How about you guys? What would you like to see?
  • I see what you mean, so how about passive animations, like Allen said. I agree about the cutscene deal but we are seeing the same character bob back and forth in ther stance until eternity. It would be nice to see some more life
  • What about an option to be able to do your next turn while the attack or special animation from the last turn is happening. That way you don't have to wait on long cutscenes and if they introduce new passive animations it won't hurt the flow of waiting. I know I could have said that all better but do you see what I'm saying?
  • Ninjamime, I think that is a good compromise. The animations are cool the first time, but they get annoying. It takes enough time trying to grind through the raids. I am tempted to kill off the B2 droids because it seems to take forever for them to uncoil their arms and fire. And the tank pivots. . . and the ship animations . . .
  • Passive animations are a great idea! Love it. I want to see JKA and Ahsoka fist bump when a toon dies. But only passively. Anything that makes use wait to button mash is a complete waste.

    @Kaytee_Glopio I've said it more then a dozen times now. All the animations were really really cool the first few hundred times. After that, I'm done. It just becomes tiring. I mean, it's sped up for auto battles... and it's still tiring.

    No, good god, no more animations! Not unless there is a way to toggle off animations all together!
