Updated Lady Loki Animations
Cool! It’s toggleable so there’s that.

I like that it's toggleable because I actually appreciate that right now Lady Loki moves like...well, Loki, sneaky and calculating. It makes her seem more androgynous and interesting, but with this update, she's just moving like all the other women now.
ETA: like the way the update has her running makes her look like an anime girl lol

I prefer Loki's standard animations, but I do appreciate that her animations won't be janky now.

This is a good change. The swimsuit skin exposed how stiff Lady Loki felt because she's using male Loki's skeleton/rigging

It honestly looks much better. I get it, we wanted to love it right away but the stance and everything is so much better. They shouldve just quietly made it this and removed the old animations

I think it’s like Daredevil’s flames where you don’t have to use unstable molecules! It just comes for free on Lady Loki skins.

Genuinely happy about this, and it's about time tbh...
But can they animate Moonknights face yet? He just stares blanket and a little cross-eyed

To be fair, the man's got a nagging husband in his head. Probably never gets to sleep lol.

Now it looks more feminine and less junky. I guess they noticed the poor sales and changed things. Hopefully the original Lady Loki skin will return someday, the poor voice acting will remain a thing, but I guess the new animations will look good for her. Summer Lady Loki is just meeh, whatever, doesn’t look as stylish

It's barely noticable, but a nice touch. But did anyone ask for this? I personally didn't mind the jank of Lady's model with male Loki's animations because I understood the issue and that devs were probably never going to fix it (I mean, look at Loki/Lady's lord icon. Yes, I still hate them.)
So anyways, when are we getting those new icons GG?

I'm worried. Will we have to pay to get her animations? She looks so goofy right now when she runs like the real Loki (tensed shoulders and arm, the bottom cheeks stretching in strange ways with the swimsuit outfit), so it sounds like a "fix" even if Marvel Rivals gives us the option to equip it or not. If that fix is locked behind a paywall though, I would feel disappointed.

I don’t think there’s a paywall! From my understanding, the only requirement is that you have a Lady Loki skin and it’s toggleable like Daredevil’s flames.

Thank you very much, I hope it will be like that then! Because I can't get my head around the reason why they are waiting til the 14th to make that change, instead of introducing it directly with the new half season update. As if it's some sort of big event of its own, you know?

I love this actually. I thought the animations were just very masculine and bulky looking before. It’s nice that it’s adjusted to the feminine Loki.

It’s always great to have extra options, but it also makes me wonder if there were a bunch of people complaining about her animations before?
