'Assassin's Creed: Origins' News: Facial Animations Being Worked on in the Lead-up to the Game's Release
Some fans have indicated that the facial animations in the game need to be fixed
Facial animations have grown more noticeable in the eyes of gamers recently, with more of them speaking up whenever things appear to be off. The upcoming game known as "Assassin's Creed: Origins" has not been immune to that kind of criticism.
Some gamers out there have been critical of the facial animations that have been featured in previously released trailers, with some making their discontent known through outlets such as Reddit.
To be fair, not everyone is critical of the animations, and there are also some gamers who have indicated that the supposedly problematic elements are not really that bothersome.
Nevertheless, the complaints have reached the folks currently working on the game, and those who have let their concerns known may be glad to hear that the developers are not leaving those apparent problems untouched.
Speaking recently to Loomer, director Ashraf Ismail touched on why a number of fans may have noticed some problematic facial animations. He also revealed that they are already on the case.
According to Ismail, it was of greater importance to them to have the game playable even well ahead of its release date so that fans could grasp what the developers were describing. He also revealed that they did not want to just sit back and wait for the cinematics and animations to be perfected before they fully fleshed out "Assassin's Creed: Origins."
Now that the game is "content-complete" in Ismail's words, making adjustments where needed is easier, according to the game director.
Lastly, Ismail revealed that they were in the process of polishing the game at this point in time, and that likely means that those facial animations that some fans have pointed out as problematic will be addressed eventually, or at least that is the plan.
"Assassin's Creed: Origins" is set to be released for the PC, PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One on Oct. 27.
