Valkyr: Hysterias Animation/ui Darkening

[Hinoiki]

As a big fan of Valkyr and her ferocious gamestyle (roar?), i cannot stop playing her, but there are one or two things that really annoy me with her ultimate:

 

 -in dark palces, the red filter layer can make you blind => on earth, with the ultimate activated, there are a lot of places where you cant see sh** during nighttime

 

-her attack animations feel too... robotic, unatural

she has claws, shes a wild beast, would it be possible to make her act more like one? If she could slash instead of  *blamblamblamblamblam*-ing everything in front, it would be much more enjoyable in my opinion(she DOES have claws after all)

maybe the slide attack could be replaced by a leg sweep?

 

 

 

 

On another note, would it be possible to set Hysteria and Battlecry on the same duration? having the first last 30% more than the second is also a minor annoyance.

Devs have already said that she's getting new animations to go with Melee 2.0 (check out the last devstream)

 

I'm 100% in agreement with the Hysteria/Battlecry duration thing though

did they show anything for the new animation set? is it boxing(i hope not) or something more feral? (i dont really have the courage to watch 1h20 of video at this time of the night).

 

Still that issue with the UI getting darker.... playing with a "black" screen isnt something i want to do too often after all

Yep, there were some WIP animations in there: 

 

Not had the problem with the UI darkening, mainly because I don't play Earth much I guess :P

Well, try it out, its a nightmare... and i guess some places in grin tilesets could be dark enough to be an issue as well.

Thx for the link!

 

Edit: WOW nice animations!

I know what you mean about her ultimate blinding you when using it a dark place. I also find it particularly bright when in a bright map, since I use a fairly bright red energy color, it can really make you feel as if you had blood-shot angry eyes.
