I don't think he's necessarily bad at animating, but he certainly isn't much above average. Consider that good animators show the transitions and not just a fade to black with the next loop. Also consider the pace at which he works. Good animators get high quality shit done in a fraction of the time. How many times has Wildeer posted stuff about him not being able to figure out fluids or some other problem?I get that the animation has no sound and I also get that Wilddeer not only takes way too long to produce content, but also makes bullshit, fake excuses as to why it's taking too long. I'd never give this guy my money, he's borderline a con-artist. I also wasn't all that interested in Gatekeeper before part 4, I never even understood why the series originally got people so excited. I'm the furthest thing from a Wilddeer fan. However, after checking out the newest release...
People complaining about the quality of the animation in part 4 have room-temp IQs. The comments on it in this thread make absolutely no sense to me - "too many fades to black" or "animating isn't his thing" - are you guys on fentanyl? Sniff too many sharpies in elementary school? Staring at the sun for fun in your free time? Smashing your head into your bro's head pretending to be a fucking Pachycephalosaurus and giving yourself CTE? It's 30+ minutes of top tier work. If you think this is anything less than A-tier animation quality, you are objectively retarded. Sorry, just the truth.
No idea what drugs you guys are smoking to think part 4 doesn't slap but I don't want any of it, that's not the good kush.
I think that his end result is usually good, and often fappable, but one animation per year does not a good animator make. Don't forget that he also slows the animations down to make them look better/smoother and to inflate the run time.
He's really good at lighting and has made a sexy as fuck model. His animating skills are not his strong suit.
