DONT LOOK DOWN!
Hello again fans and fellow gamers
Look down and tell me what you see? one waist two legs, one pair of feet right? that may be true but why is this not the case for a lot of first-person shooters (FPS) video games.
In all fairness having no legs in FPS games helps you see whats beneath you better, such as power-ups and hidden clues. furthermore, legs do sometimes get in the way etc, when your strafing implementing legs is fairly to animate.
More to the point, the animation of the legs aren’t exactly from past games- one gamer commented “when you see your legs you realize how retarded your animation actually is where you can move diagonally but it looks like your legs are running straight ahead. That’s just terrible”.
To be honest FPS without legs doesn’t really affect overall gameplay, however in the case of our contemporary society were technology is ever improving and virtual reality continues to strive to become…well more real- then wouldn’t adding legs to your character seem necessary?
The legs, if animated and textured correctly, could be the one of the finishing touches to your game. having a torso and legs could make for a more immersive gaming experience. Take a look at games like the first ‘Left 4 dead’, ‘Halo’,’ F.E.A.R’ and ‘Outlast’ all of which show legs in the perspective and deliver in an immersive 3D experience. This proves that Legs work.
Perhaps its a matter of perspective (pardon the pun) but what do you think? are legs not necessary in FPS or are legs something FPS can’t stand to be without?
