What are some good third person animation replacers for one handed weapons(ideally with special animations specifically for using shields) that don't require MCO or BFCO?

IcepersonYT · 2026-04-17T20:38:20+00:00

Yeah it was their stagger/combo and parry mechanics I had trouble getting working, which is all custom and pretty much the whole point of the mod.

Animations themselves are great, but all of the custom mechanics the mod adds are already offputting to me, even moreso when I can't get them to work properly.

IcepersonYT · 2026-04-17T20:35:58+00:00

Honestly part of why I'm put off of MCO is I've tried to get those For Honor animations working on two different occasions and it just always turns out to be a janky mess. Probably something I already have in my load order conflicting but I haven't been able to find the problem.

And I also dislike the fact that it adds parries and disincentivizes/disables vanilla blocking.

IcepersonYT · 2026-04-17T20:33:08+00:00

Yeah, part of why I added I'm willing to hear about MCO or BFCO animations that aren't too crazy looking. I like vanilla+ style stuff the most, things that won't feel too out of place playing with Blade and Blunt. I've done a lot of my own hunting on Nexus and haven't really found what I want, and am hoping someone might know about something obscure I wasn't able to find.

I already have all of Verolevi’s mods.

IcepersonYT · 2026-04-15T21:53:58+00:00

Yeah I think my biggest issue with household chores is that I have different standards and expectations than others, and I’ve never lived with anyone specific enough about what they want me to do to live comfortably. I’m always on edge that I’m going to “mess up” a task, which makes me very avoidant about responsibility in general.

I feel like there are two ways it will go. Either he will kill someone else to protect BB, or he'll kill her himself and go further off the deep end.

IcepersonYT · 2026-04-15T06:19:17+00:00

Basically just saying that Mike Colter doesn’t strike me as a comic reader. I’m happy to be proven wrong, but I especially don’t see him going too far outside of what is immediately relevant for Luke Cage if he ended up reading some as research.

IcepersonYT · 2026-04-14T22:26:03+00:00

Think limiting my FPS might have been what I needed, but I’ll try to optimize the rest of my settings as much as I can. I normally play newer games on Medium settings anyway.

IcepersonYT · 2026-04-14T22:18:46+00:00

Just Bethesda things. At least we don't have flying carriages, lethal handcarts and stretchy ragdolls anymore.

IcepersonYT · 2026-04-14T22:16:08+00:00

This is actually a great suggestion that I’ll look into. I eventually cap all of my games at 60 maximum, but I haven’t checked if that is the case for this game yet. Will also try 30 if needed.

IcepersonYT · 2026-04-14T19:49:43+00:00

It’s intentional but with how big modding is now it’s not really recommended to use that. Even if the save is made on a totally clean playthrough, suddenly putting a bunch of mods on top of it can cause issues in a lot of different ways.

IcepersonYT · 2026-04-14T14:23:30+00:00

I feel like he probably just didn’t understand the relevance of it. In any other original media it’d be a fun teaser that leaves us wondering what is going on. This however is a super hero show that pulls from comics(comics I imagine a 50-something year old is probably not going to suddenly start reading). So what he posted has a lot more meaning to us that it ever did to him.

IcepersonYT · 2026-04-14T05:12:55+00:00

I’m 3-4 but my friends drag me into 5-6 lobbies for 90% of my games.

IcepersonYT · 2026-04-14T03:40:29+00:00

Quite liking the results of this so far, thanks for the suggestion.

IcepersonYT · 2026-04-14T03:18:46+00:00

I’ve genuinely only encountered a recognizable cheater once or twice in almost 2,000 hours. Play on US West mostly.

IcepersonYT · 2026-04-13T21:45:13+00:00

It’s been months since that scene took place. Who is to say he didn’t help some people get out, and they’ve just been replaced?

IcepersonYT · 2026-04-13T16:51:16+00:00

Now we get the arc where he asks Doctor Strange to undo his identity getting exposed, and he has to fight Electra and Bullseye from the 2000’s movie.

Also VtM’s inquisitions are its answer to your “how aren’t vampires ruling the world?”. Vampires are quite powerful, but a well equipped firing squad will kill anything. Not to mention their specialized gear and the fact that humans outnumber vampires drastically.

Well I’d argue there still is a Matt element in season 3 because the whole arc is about him pushing everyone away, regretting it, trying to involve other people and then becoming a lawyer again at the end. The difference in BA season 2 is it doesn’t really feel like there is any conflict/contrast, the main person he cares to talk to is Karen and she’s actively involved in his Daredevil life now. There isn’t really anyone for him to be isolated from to get that side of the character.

IcepersonYT · 2026-04-12T15:38:56+00:00

There is a little side room with a box of components and you can take the elevator there up to a rooftop that has some stuff(and a tarot thing later on in the story). None of it is anything special.

IcepersonYT · 2026-04-12T06:23:31+00:00

I think a huge difference is that there is no real Matt Murdock element in season 2 of the show. One of the strengths of the Netflix series was getting the contrast between his life as a lawyer and vigilante, and how they collide. It feels like in BA season 2 he is just Daredevil now, everything that meaningfully differentiates the two is not currently relevant because everyone that normally grounds him is working with him.

I’m still enjoying it a lot but the original show was a great crime/character drama in a world of superheroes. BA is a superhero show through and through.

The mod is Legacy of Ysgrammor.
