The Bowman said:You like the Warband animations? Running in this game is no better than Mario.
Given the technology they used it's still pretty good. The "sliding" effect is not that noticable and in TPP you can almost feel the "weight" of your charater as he moves. I would say that they did a better job than lots of devs in their AAA titles.
Of course more diversity in animations (like few animations for each directional attack) and (as said in the interview) taking weapon weight under consideration in combat system would be great.
