maya is for animation, max for modeling. you obviously choose both depending on what needs to be achieved.
are you always nice to everyone? or always evil? do you have the lights always turned on or off? you see where this is going, retard?

interestingly though Fromsoft uses 3ds max only (well and zbrush), yet they have the best animations in the industry.

don't be shy, anon, what better studios did you have in mind? of course capcom's animations are pretty amazing too. and in terms of what they actually do i prefer games like Monster Hunter over all the flipping and shit in fromsoft games, but for what they are, fromsofts animations are the best of what they can be imo.

don't answer questions that put in less effort than you put into the answers you already gave. if you follow that rule you will not fall for nearly as much bait.
if you reply to everything that took no effort whatsoever you'll just type your hands bloody and become angry at this place.
"you are joking, right" is nothing that should induce a response. you gave actual information, named companies and followed the thread. he is literally just making a fart sound and you're treating it as if you had been rebutted (pun intended).

their character animations are stiff as fuck, lots of snapping, clipping etc. just watch random walk cycles and they are pretty terrible

literally any triple A studio

now that's just not true in the slightest, especially with how many AAA studios make use of animations that have literally no momentum inside the animation itself, and then apply it to an attack that makes you ice-skate into the enemy's face. especially in games like the Assassin's Creed series

small/no momentum in vidya animation is expected and Fromsoft animations are far from best in the industry, I don't know what point are you trying to make
ass creed uses motion matching and a lot of procedural shit, hard to compare with Fromsoft's approach of recycling the same keyframe animations in multiple projects

>ass creed uses motion matching and a lot of procedural shit
then how come there's almost no real transition between many animations in ass creed and everything just kinda snaps.
i think in terms of character animation Monster Hunter World took the cake with how even every direction and what direction you came out of during a roll animation influences the recovery and startup

from soft recycles all their assets and all their games are exactly the same, going back at least 20 years

nothing wrong with reusing great animations if you're gonna iterate in other ways and the game is the same type of game anyway. u could argue that a game like elden ring is only really possible with years of iteration.

You're basically on the same moral, social and technical level of a dope dealer, minus the illegality of it. Though I'm sure you're considered the cool rich kid among the Starbucks baristas.

waging all your life for less just to be paid when you're retired is a scam. What I do is work for a fraction of the time, make more money, and live humbly because I'm not a retard.
>not actually making anything of any artistic nor technical value, per your own admission

Lmao fromshit infamously couldn't animate mouths to move while character models were supposed to talk, couldn't even do simple open and close without lipsync. You are either shitposting or you are a genuine retard and also shitposting.
