"sitting Down In Seiza"-Animation

[Thanor]

 So I really like the sitting down animation of the warframe, and the loginscreen and that stuff, but sitting down in seiza is done the other way around, let me explain:

 

 If you sit down in seiza, you put down your left leg first, not the right one. The reason for that is, to be able to draw your sword from your hip even while sitting down. If you sit down with the right leg first, you would have to cut your left leg to draw your sword. Standing up from seiza is the inverted animation, you stand up with your right leg first, so you can draw your sword from your hip immediately while standing up. Bushi always had to be prepared for an attack.

 

 I know, Tenno don't wear their swords on the hip, but it's common to do it that way, because it went from "it has to be like this, to draw your sword properly" to manifested tradition.

 

 I hope it's going to be implemented, as it seems you would only have to invert the animation (though i don't know your engine of course, could be terribly hard to implement ;). It's a pleasure helping a dev team improving an awesome game like this. Keep it up!

More authenticity is always welcome. I like this idea. All that would really have to be done is to mirror the image but keep the menus straight.

If they ever add emotes to the game, I'd love to see Japanese-style bowing.

We weren't talking about emotes but that would be a nice feature too^^
