Animated character faces in conversations

[Woolfe]

Hi, I am a kangaroo drawn by KatieKat86 and I am just here to make Woolfe feel a little more at home maybe.

Its not Carrying an UZI and wearing a fancy beret....

I agree with the OP, even with AAA budgets facial animations and expressions are rarely convincing.

The Uncanny Valley rains upon the just and the unjust alike.

I know him! That's krellen!

Your work, Gizmo? Very nice!

I would want animated faces, but I do think that idle animations like to original, when applied to realistic faces, would look unintentionally creepy in the best of times. But I'm not against 3D faces, so long as they are not trying for photo realism.

Well there you go...


Wasteland is certainly a setting where we might find some mutant animals.

I wish, I would love to see a "Mutants Down under" style mod for Wasteland

Hi, I am a dwarf and I don't care about realistic mouth movements. To me, Wasteland's giflike nature was one of its greatest charms. I will be sad if I see still images in Wasteland 2, but please do not try too hard to make the animations hyper-realistic. If the mouth opens and closes more or less at the same time the sounds are coming out (if there is even sound for most dialogue), that's plenty.

Hello, I am a talking tiger man and I just want to take a moment to agree with the dwarf above.

Hello, I am a skeleton and the worms on my face agree with this post.

Hello, I look like I'm made from ground beef and God only knows what I'm trying to say, but I agree as well.

"Hey you Scumbags" ... I erm agree as well

I think that Wasteland 2 could get away with having a mutant raccoon settlement; don't you think?

Throw in some Wolverines as heavy hitters and you got yourself a small army

Looks like art from the TMNT RPG.

And I always thought setting the game in Australia would be a wonderful little Easter Egg.

Yep "Mutants Down Under" was a quite large addon to the "After the bomb" Palladium title, which was set in the TMNT universe after a nuclear war.

Australia would be a great setting. Similar size to continental US, but with a much smaller temperate area, and only about 24 million people. Most of whom are in the big cities,(89%) Urban population.

You'd definately need a vehicle system though.... lots of empty space between towns...

Hehe, come to think of it... I'd love to see a band of intelligent mutant rodents somewhere in the game. Preferrably with some potshots at furries.
