His head is too low, which makes it seem like his hands are growing out of his chin

It looks weird to have his body move and his head stay still.

Wow. Simply wow.

Man, gotta love how this update is only getting worse with time

I'm really starting to hope that after this triple update thing the devs sit down and just start repairing stuff from the past updates like just a massive fixing like for ds.

At least they confirmed they plan to work on things like the new armor and the effects of the Rifts throughout future updates

But I'm still worried about these animations

Tbf I feel like the void cowl and many other hats should let Wortox horns out like he poked holes out for that or something. Then again likely a pain in layering to do any of it so I digress?

Yes, the hat bit has been removed.

I'd honestly rather take them having separate animations for full head gear only than sacrificing cool iconic details like these

[BezKa]

That's horrible.

Who is making you do this, Klei? I thought you love your game and these amazing little things make it better. I'm probably not even going to use the hood, why is other stuff getting broken for it!

Hey guys, we're still working on the Void Cowl!  But for now, these animation tweaks were by far the quickest and easiest fix, so that it doesn't go live with heads detaching.

Yeah as much as people complained about the moving, bobbing, blinking heads in the compendium screen you might want to avoid any detached floating heads

Hey, thank you for acknowledging it! I appreciate it vastly.
I do hope something is figured out soon, best of luck in that department!

Nice to hear!

[BezKa]

Thanks for telling us!

[Baark0]

Surely it'd just be easier to make exceptions for a handful of items than go and change every single animation involving head items?

[Clownarchy]

im glad to hear that the animation tweaks are just the easiest fix for now, i hope that fixing the void cowl goes well so that we can see those fun animations again soon

Thanks for specifying!

Approach to this makes sense given how close the update is.

I don't understand why they don't just override the headbase symbol instead of the hat symbol?
They are already hiding it anyways so a simple override should work fine as it already doesn't mess with skins if they clear it after it is unequipped.
It would of been significantly less work than having to do this method of remaking so many beloved animations.

You’re a bit late, they already fixed it

That's good, too busy to follow up on the forums constantly.
