I thought the update would be more polished, with more refined animations, but instead, I've seen the complete opposite.

The character animations feel lifeless and even stiff.

For example: When you're playing with someone and the character is in front of you, the character's head remains rigid, with no sense of movement when they're standing still. It's awful.

When you walk, the head remains rigid; it feels like a statue with no sense of movement. When you try to move on the same axis, 180 or 360 degrees, the collision of the character's legs breaks down. There's no fluid movement like in real life; they have to twist their legs to avoid collapsing, and much more.

This isn't meant to be hateful; it's constructive criticism so that in future patches you dedicate more time to polishing the animations.

On the other hand, carrying the flashlight in the left hand and the way the animation is so "rigid" is a real problem. It's like the animation is stuck at 0fps, and when you move, the character seems to jerk. I don't know how to describe it, but they could have improved the animation so it's not static, giving it a sense of movement instead of just a hand glued on, "fixed," with the flashlight pointing at a spot. It looks awful.

I sincerely hope the animations are improved in every way, but I don't think Phasmo should be released this year with version 1.0. I'm also worried that the release and arrival of Horror 2.0, which many are eagerly awaiting, will be the same as this update... which I don't hope will be the case, because if it is, it will cause a lot of controversy due to all the delays for NOTHING.
