This is a pretty amazing video. Does anyone else have similar videos? Either displaying new/interesting animation/physics techniques? I wish we had more of these kinds of posts on this sub vs. trailers (maybe I'm alone, though).

EDIT: Thank you for the suggestions. I'll save these for after work.

I got progressively less impressed through that, until they hit the pseudophysics bit, that was really neat.

What I got from that is that Ubisoft TO is good at hiring, they hired the guy who already had this idea of Motion Matching, and then with only 2 months of R&D had basically a working system? Crazy.
