9:39 thats actually a valid point, most of the enemies in this game have their bodies becoming transparent when you kill them, especially those cerci enemies sometimes without their bodies exploding, but then theres some enemies in this game that dont become transparent when they die like in the first game
also if you look closely, you can see them do their fainting animations as they die too

Yeah, when I was editing I started paying closer attention to the animations. Most of the time they just barely start up the animation and fade away. Every now and then Rogue just yeets them so hard into the next dimension they disappear immediately. Exact opposite of the first game, where sometimes enemies would take a good 20 seconds to start and go through their animation.

You should play the Jurrassic Park game next

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Rogue is one of the worst characters in the game because she's bugged. The hit detection on most of her attacks doesn't inherently work properly or scale with the speed stat and her healing ability actually removes beneficial effects like buffs and reduces your party's damage. The latter can be prevented by opening the menu and backing out every time the ability is used, but it's still a hassle. But she's pretty useful when paired with Gambit or Bishop when you buff her with Energy Fury. But that's the same for anyone that uses percentage based damage.
