No, we're just getting annoyed at your constant ignorant posting. It's alright not to know things. It's pretty bad however when you don't know things but try to come off as some kind of expert at it. Stop it, please.

I watched some of this last year and some so far this year, its pretty entertaining. One thing I don't get is why everyone says smash will go long. I didn't watch much of it last year and none this year so I don't know why it takes so long.

You can have both great smooth and varied animation and great function. Like Vampire Savior and Skullgirls.

skullgirls animation is obscenely hard to read which is why its bad for gameplay purposes

I can tell what is and what is not smooth animation. Thanks. I'm sorry I criticized your favorite game. :(

what are you even talking about you idiot. gg has great animation that focuses on function before confusion.

I think GG has worse animation that a lot of its contemporaries, including janky Marvel 2 and Melty Blood. :shrug:

Lots of skipped frames and altered animations. It's not the worst, but not the best. It is good at using "pop up" animations though.

Oh okay you mean like the animation itself? The spritework is pretty high quality, but I can see producing tons of sprites being super expensive since like, skullgirls character sprite sheets cost what, a quarter mil to produce?

Out of all the legit complaints about melee, not dying fast enough is the weirdest complaint when everything is basically 1 touch death.

gg uses a lower number of "frames" than many games for the sake of readability. the animation is technically good, it just happens that the games put function over form.

Topanga's stream has the crowd with volume, but it's Japanese commentary. That may make it more authentic, YMMV.

I realize that is what they are going for and even said that in my original post. People just quoted me and hinted that it was impossible to have good animation and readability. And I was an "idiot" for not realizing this.
