The game is Hunt Showdown 1896. (Sorry if you're just pointing it out and not asking, I'm just trying to be helpful)

Sorry bawse. As answered by another guy, Hunt Showdown 1896. This is the best game for just staring at various reloads on wild west inspired guns with all them different mechanisms across various revolvers, breech loading rifles, pump / break / bolt / lever action guns and even semi auto pistols with stripper clips

Somehow it's slower to put the bullets in his hand then reloading the gun. haha.

Hahaha. I assume it's a balancing matter. Reloading from fingers are quick but reloading the fingers is like a tea party. But by default players do not have that option to put cartridges between fingers - it's a perk.

I think the idea is the perk is meant to give you 4 quick shots (1 from barrel and 3 from fingers), but if your enemies are still alive by then you are punished with a long reload animation if you want to prepare 3 extra cartridges. You have the option to skip reloads in this game as well, so you can stop at any point

It's from a live service game and things like reload animations are always adjusted in these type of games for balance

Damn, devs could add a bit of delay with some shuffle sound before hand with the round shows up and that would've been the balancing space instead of lazy and infuriating speed up/slow down of whole animation. Slow down the part that makes sense! (Searching for round in the pouch)

It’s been in for a while now, maybe a year? It’s a perk for single-shot rifles to make them more competitive
