    Meloo is a channel that produces Guides, Creative Edits, High Quality Lore Videos, Comparisons & Mods for new video game releases. In my videos I draw parallels, use Juxtapositions and other editing techniques to deliver my Gameplay in a transformative manner from the original narrative rather than full let’s plays. I usually focus on games for a more mature audience. All Gameplay is my own and is recorded and edited by me.

      @MasterSkye Well I've heard that Genshin Impact and HSR cutscenes are based on AI
      I hope that they don't use AI to make Cutscenes on Zenless Zone Zero
      (Genshin Impact Environment is also suggested by ai too...)

      ​​@MasterSkyeThey hire people based on the criteria of being weebs and spend hundreds of millions of dollars on their projects.
      No way their own animators are underpaid for their work there. Also also, HoYo is constantly developing their own tools to help make their animations easier to produce and their content pipeline faster to dish out.
      If you want to blame any issues at their workplace, it'd be overworking, but that is the norm in China. It does seem like HoYo's offices are rather comfy however.

      ​@@wonderfulrose477seriously, when did everyone collectively decide locking content behind microtransactions and loot boxes is awesome? Back in 2017 EA literally removed all loot boxes from Star Wars Battlefront 2 because nobody was buying into their bullshit. I guess gamers just became stupid. Hoyoverse would actually be selling games as a complete package if motherfuckers wouldn't spend so much money on their bullshit gambling nonsense.

      The ZZZ team is at least having more creative freedom when it comes to character design.
      I think that Mihoyo's other games (Genshin mainly) lose a lot of potential in this, since they present different races to us in the game universe (for exemplo, in Genshin we have Tengu, Oni, etc), but all the models are always ordinary humans with some extra parts just to make it look like they are a different race.
      For a fictional universe, I think it's a lot of lost potential.

    I don't think people care but gotta say it eitherway
    Animation, either 3d or 2D is not as much about money (even tho they deserve a good payment)
    It's about time
    You can pay an animator 1 million per frame, if you give them 1 day to done full 24 minute animation, it'll be crappy
    A weekly anime episode usually takes 3 months to produce
    So just remember, animation is about time, not about how much they spend
    Edit because a few people aren't too smart: I'm talking of animators as individual people, not as employees
    Even if an individual animator is paid a lot, if the deadline is too close, it wouldn't be able to make a good animation
    Yes, payment is important for a company, but I'm talking of animators not companies
    Take "animator" as "person who animates something something in 2D or 3D for a living or for a hobby"
    Not as "employee of a company that is paid to animate"

      @@troy2223 That is to say an animator's payment only impacts the quality of their living and not the quality of their work (even though someone could argue the two are bound), especially when they are not commissioned freelances and don't (couldn't) have to juggle through multiple jobs to pay rent and food.
      It's just that this "animation budget" crap poisons discussion with unnecessary BS born due to ignorance when the real impacting factor for quality, as OP says, is the proper time and planning to do something good.
