Agreed. I don't think the animations do much for the game. They're vaguely amusing, but a few clicks or transitions would do the job as well or better. A few are even kind of grotesque. I get that we're in whole period of "CSI" and "X-ray" porn depictions, but a disembodied tongue has all the appeal for me of the meat section of the supermarket. (Not judging the carnophiliacs out there, just sayin'.)It will be necessary that all those who do not want stupid animations begin to say it strong and clear. For some, these stupid animations we find everywhere don't serve the game. In this case, as much look a bad porn.
But this is only a personal opinion that I share with myself.
That said, if he's climbing up some sort of learning curve to the point where they will be much better then that's kind of the idea behind Patreon, so....
