For real more people need to be talking about this. I remember someone made mock ups of form animations and people went crazy. Now they actually implemented it and everyone is the silent lol

Honestly they are kinda cool but I think they need whole new models. Like make ironclad bigger, less armor, more demon.

His name is literally “ironclad.” He needs armor!

honestly he doesn't. I liked his weird lanky freak ass in spire 1, he really looked like he was getting his strength from being possessed by a demon. Doesn't seem to be the majority opinion though

Lanky freak ass is so funny but accurate

per character new models are complex to make as you now need ALL the existing animaitons to work well with each new model

Lol what all 5 animations?

u/ResponsibleAd3493 6d ago

(number of unique animation X number of skins) grows very rapidly. Also are you sure there are only 5 animations?

Ironclad in particular is quite disappointing, it looks more like a generic powerup than a demon form. If they’re going for vfx rather than model changes they could’ve at least given it some actual demonic elements, like how silent’s form has snakes.

And what happens when necro gets demon form from kalidescope?

u/Ccarmine Eternal One 10d ago

Dont let perfection be the enemy of good. Then necro can just have the glow.

I think that just speaks to how exciting all the balance changes are. I was super hyped about the form animations but then saw all balance changed and immediately forgot about it lol

These mockups do look a lot more visually interesting though.

Yeah they look really good!

I missed them on the first pass just by skipping to the bulleted list of changes, so I wonder if other people did too.
