Hello For honor team and Players,
This is quite a late feedback but I couldn't find any post regarding this topic. In this thread I am going to talk about Nuxia's Animations.
When I tried Nuxia, the first thing we noticed with my friend is that her walking and running animation felt a bit wrong.
I guess it's a detail but that caught my attention quite a bit. It's like she has a back problem and can't move it properly. More vulgarly, she feels like she has something stuck in the bottom. While she is an assassin with a light armor, compared to every other characters, she seems to be struggling when walking and running. I believe she can be improved in that matter when we compare her to other new characters.
What is happening when Nuxia is trying to hit with the trap but haven't been blocked/parried: It's like she's hitting through the enemy, even more if she is getting guardbreak, and that is ridiculous.
Her overall combat animations feels good for me. She doesn't look fast and agile as I imagined (moving her arms so widely and slowly on few animations) but I'm not sure about how it should be so that is only my feelings. It also might be difficult to match animations with her kit.
Finally I like her emotes and executions, I can't wait to see more about it after the release!
Regarding animations, what do you guys feel? Do you enjoy Nuxia animation?
Anyway I am very happy about how the game is evolving and all the work from the team. Thank you and keep up the good work. I love your game
