SMITE - God Reveal - Danzaburou, The Legendary Tanuki

[@ObbyTheBird]

They really put bottles under his tummy because they can't show a tanuki's giant, swinging balls. Honestly, really clever

[@animeotaku22]

XD I didn't even notice that until you pointed it out.

[@MaskedMammal]

How is it that nobody has noticed yet that he actually still has the giant, swinging balls on his character model? Maybe they removed them in the PTS or something, but if you watched their stream where he's revealed, the in-game model turnaround clearly has something big hanging between his legs when the camera is at the right angle.

[@AQWdraconian]

@@MaskedMammal are you not just seeing the bottles

[@MaskedMammal]

@@AQWdraconian You can see it from the front or the back. They don't hang down far enough to see from any normal camera angle in-game but the first turnaround they showed of his model in-game has a low enough angle to see something's there. It's not high enough to be his body, and not in the right place for his legs or tail, and it's definitely not the bottles. IDK, maybe they took them off in-game but I guess we'll find out the first time someone's camera clips down under his legs in the fountain, lol~ (I probably shouldn't be this invested in fluffy balls lmao)

[@bruhmemento8314]

Hi-Rez, can you *please* stop using the cinematics you make for these new gods for the "Lore" part of the vid? I honestly liked old narration of older vids, as they *actually* explained the lore behind the gods.

[@Solace_System]

Amen.

[@zewzit]

Ye :/ I love the new cinematics, but it I would not say it is the same as "Lore". The cinematics are for bringing attention to the god; the reveal should reveal them lol, not show the cinematic again. The lore is still there in the god page, but without the excitment of first hearing it like a fairytail narration, this doesn't feel like mythology anymore. Just a bunch of characters :/

[@Solace_System]

@@zewzit precisely. They are viewing the lore and cinematics as the former replacing the latter, when they should have both. I understand that might be harder with everyone working at home, but I think it is, without a doubt, the best scenario.

[@zewzit]

@@Solace_System True, I know it's harder to do both, so ofc I'm not "mad" mad they are not doing it. But I think it really adds some huge depth. For example, when I started playing, I was horrible with Serqet. She has 2 movement abilities so I was just running it down. Then one day I saw the lore for her: "fighting is not her style, she stays cool and ambushes" etc. Bruh it was amazing I was really immersed playing her after that, trying to ambush everyone. Same thing with the lore of jing wei, for example, which leads to never give up on a kill/objective. Just go back to base, passive, go again etc, since she doesnt have much power early one. Lore just adds a lot of immersive details, but without it being on the reveal, I don't feel like checking it out for the recent gods :/

[@brycelacy3545]

For real, they started doing this in 2018, I too miss the narration of the actual lore of these mythological characters and deities. Now they just use the teaser cinematic as the lore part of the video, that’s just lazy.

[@AGO339]

contrary to what people say, i actually really love and appreciate these animations and opening cinematics. though it would be nice to mix them in with the scroll style lore. people keep clamoring for going back to just to lor scroll, but i think we should have both

[@siimtokke3461]

As always I see new god reveal and think that this will be OP AF. Like his passive will stack so fast and he gets 40 extra power. Usually, players get 400-650 GPM, so at least after 5 min, he has maxed his passive. This should be like Thoth's passive where the pen stacks unlock with levels.
