I always wondered why everyone was so mad at this game, because on paper it doesn't sound too bad, but it's worse than I thought. Also Fox's item pickup animation is so annoying to me for reasons I can't articulate. Like they saw Link's pickup animation and challenged themselves to make a wrong version of it.

Because he does it for everything while link gets a short one for random items and a proper one with the whole fanfare for actually important things, and even then its unobtrusive.

Also fox does it when receiving things from npcs so i just assume he immeditaely drops it so he can do the goofy pick up dance

While it does a play a lot more than it should, I meant more about the animation itself:

For me imo it's that he looks like he's raising the thing up and also kind of fist pumping?... and it all seems so slow.

Yeah, it's slow and he kinda wiggles his body in a way that doesn't quite fits his character, I don't know how else to describe. Doesn't help that Krystal shares the same animation as well, and while I want to say that it fits her character better, all we know about her, besides her tragic backstory and "lost her staff", is that she is encased in a crystal.

No one would blame you for quitting on Dragon Rock.

I was lowkey dreading having to record it because the 2nd barrel challenge can be pretty awful and all the mashing was making me sore during practice, but it went alright lmao.
But the worst is over and now it's all downhill from here.

That implies there was ever an uphill.

I'm really baffled by things that are less than the sum of its parts, like this game. I can only guess that happens when people don't care about the thing they're making, and that might be what happened here after Star Fox got slapped into it, I don't know.

Also just how long was Krystal was in the game, outside of her crystal, after the opening section? I'd be surprised if it was more than 1 minute.

Also also i thought the evil voice in the general scales "boss fight" was actually the warp stone golem for a minute there
