made by people who have no understanding of physics. when a 50 meter, 500 tons mech moves, it SHOULD NOT F**KING move like a human sized video game character. things needs to have weight and reasonable acceleration (meaning things will "look" slow, like when the space shuttle lifts off). some 3d models and liberal application of overlay effects from Adobe Premier doesn't make this "professional".

Generally speaking, the only way a project like that is going to succeed is if a bigger studio takes it on. And well, one of the reason anime like this don't do as well is down to production interference. It could lose all the charm it has just because the higher ups in the studio (or worse, the publishers) say they want to take it in another direction. And with the characters being CGI, if the budget for animation is cut, they could become rather lifeless looking.
@Tazer_Silverscar2 жыл бұрын
Oh, and the complexity of that unit at the end would have to be stepped down. You don't get a show like this off the ground without having something to sell, and that looks WAY too complicated to make a figure or model kit of. Too many moving panels.
