anyone find Pericles's animation weird?

[Tutzk]

I just dont understand it. Other leaders bow or nod or do something of that sort when you meet them. What's Pericles doing? Groping all around? And with his silly halmet?

I like it, it makes me laugh a little every time i see it.

Being terrified of what the new phlanx is capeable of I decided it best that pericles, died, and yes he has a funny hat.

It's just the normal Greek helmet.

The animation is cute I think. I interpret it as him telling the kids to go play somewhere else as he has important business to attend to.

I think Lincolns to be more strange....

Lol I find Pericles animation to be terribly strange. I crack up every time I see it!

 

[Bast]

What's so strange about it? It's original and unique, which is better than like 90% of the other animations looking like statues there.

Also, love Isabella standing looking sideways with her head bowed and Catherine turning back slowing to reveal her face.

Precisely. I love it. It constantly reminds me of Leonidas. The first time I saw that, I was like "Woah. That's freakin' Leonidas! Oh, wait."

I'd like to see the waving business happen less frequently.... it's a good animation, but it's not suitable everytime.

Pericles' Corinthian helmet is way cooler then Justinian's silly crown.

They took the Pericles idea from the Roman bust (I believe it was a copy from an older Greek sculpture)

It looks like this....

for 300 lovers, see my screenshot in the funny screenshots thread which I recently posted.

I have a question: What happened to the original Phalanx unit graphic? Now it seems they just look like normal spearmen, even though the other graphic was cooler. Why????

 

[PimpyMicPimp]

It looks to me like he's commanding forces or something. I mean his helemt is down when he's doing that, he puts it up to speak with you.

I agree, I also like it. Much better than the standard nod.

 

[romelus]

yeah it's a great animation. i also like joao's. such a snob

 

[Proteus]

I like it and yes, looks like he is honing his military skills.

Took lots of traning to perform in a Phalanx

Nothing beats Gilgamesh denying a request.

Nothing beats Gilgamesh denying a request.

Yeah, I agreed.

Gilgamesh and Pericles have great animations.

I just dont understand it. Other leaders bow or nod or do something of that sort when you meet them. What's Pericles doing? Groping all around? And with his silly halmet?

When I saw it for the first time I thought it looked like he was playing a harp, but that wouldn`t make much sense now, would it ?

I take it as though he's giving a command to troops in the field...

Joao is awesome. He reminds me of Shrek's prince.
