113591-worst-stealth-animations-i-have-ever-seen-in-my-life

I've been playing MMO's for over a decade and I've seen some pretty bad animations. But these stealth animations top them all...
 
I can only speak for male characters...but this is what I've gathered:
 
The ONLY slightly below average stealth animation is the Draken....the rest...oh man...I'll explain...
 
Human and Cassian stealth animations looks like they're in a hurry to find the nearest restroom.
 
Mechari is literally a copied and pasted version of the human/cassian stealth animation...it just looks worse.
 
Mordesh stealth with a limp....if you turn your camera to the side while the mordesh move in stealth it literally looks like frames are skipping.
 
Aurin think that they are airplanes...with their arms stretched out like an airplane they take flight until they do a bombing run on their enemies then fly back around for some more bombs to drop off. Playing an aurin stalker for me is like pretending I'm back in preschool watching a kid fly around the playground with his arms out till he trips and falls.
 
Where is the feeling of the deadly assassin? Not in any of these animations....that is for sure...
 
 
I hate to bring up World of Warcraft....I really do....hell even Guild Wars 2 and Elder Scrolls Online....keep the stealth animations looking great no matter which race you choose. I think the devs were trying to think outside the box in this game....it just went too far outside the box.

Aurin run in stealth like ninjas. :3 So I think it fits.
 
Though, my favorite stealth animation to this point is female Blood Elf, how they crouched down and had their fingers on the ground. How they moved, too. I also liked how Pandaren (females) moved around in stealth, though I didn't like how they stood in place.

For the Aurin they're going for the 'ninja run', I think popularized by Naruto from what I've heard.
In WoW my fave was the female goblin stealth, slowed down to walking speed. It really need a plucked violin string musical accompaniment haha

The stealth animations are the main reason I don't play Stalker much. .....
 
 
"hold a sec. let me turn on stealth mode"....POSE...ok let me run around in a stupid pose that no one can see.
 
seriously, sneaky mouse from early cartoons...I go tippy toes, you no see me
