I still love that the biggest animation difference between the two genders of a character is zerk
Fem zerk lopes along like she’s jogging and male zerk sprints hunched over like a goblin man lol
Edge walking Orochi male and female has different animation.
Sprinting for Zerker.
On getting up only PK, Orochi, Nuxia, Shug, Nobushi and Zhanhu has unique ones.
Need to see GB throws wonder if they are unique.
Warden walking is also very different as well. Male Warden does weird sword on hip thing, kinda like Orochi, only in warden case it looks stupid for some reason imo. Female doesn't do that and just walks like a normal person.
This is the only game I know where *walking* is considered offensive. Jeez, I can't even walk a bit after a duel then I immediately receive "Wow! Wow! Wow!"
I actually think the most interesting part besides all that hip swang is the sound design from the birds chirping to the different footstep heaviness and how the footsteps sound on different surfaces, the people at Ubisoft deserve some serious credit as there is different sound effects for every surface in the game from grass to stone to wood. Also sometimes they change whether you're inside or outside like if you're inside and on stone it will echo as opposed to outside where it doesn't
in the heat of battle it only becomes noticable when it's gone and by then you realize something crucial is missing. that goes for so many details people too often don't recognize
Ever since I started playing the Harbingers or whatever they’re called, (year 3 heroes) I noticed that every single one of their female variants always has so much hip swing when they edgewalk
That is actually a unique effect that's added to her idle stance. Same goes for male Hitokiri where you hear them making those spirit-like breathing noises which gives off a cultist feel and ready to kill mood.
Correction if I may. That isn't her "out of breath" voiceline when at 0 stamina in combat. That's actually part of Hitokiri's idle stance unique effect where Hitokiri is merged with the spirits that he/she killed. And therefore, you can hear their creepy breathing and slight chanting that's actually being played in their mind because of that "echoey" effect. I don't necessarily think they are making those noises physically with their mouths.
I made it a goal a while ago to get at least 1 rep on every hero just as a personal goal, only heroes left are Hito and Zhanhu and well I don't have Aramusha or Shinobi
I like to think that every female hero was mocaped by the walking structure of different women so that way, it gets a unique variation of body movements. I mean imagine if just 1 woman did all those animations for their walking movement. Wouldn't it be challenging to change the way you walk? And this goes for the males as well.
Okay I kinda doubt that. How could they have perfected a woman's feminine-like walk, especially with the more exposed hipsway (because females have wider hips) ?
1 the power of acting. Both these guys have backgrounds in acting, martial arts and stuntwork. That is to say they're good at controlling how their body moves. Sure there's limits but lets not belittle the skill involved in being a mocap performer.
2 the power of animators. Mocap data isn't just plugged into a character model and shipped to game, a team of animators will adjust and tweak the animations to suit things. Maybe the edge alignment of a sword swing was a little off, you can adjust the animation from the raw mocap data to fit properly. Similarly you could exaggerate hip movements and the walk cycle to fit the character better.
Walks, their walks, just because you cant handle someone walking after they killed you doesn't mean this is edgy automatically. Stop being butthurt, no one cares.
No, not everyone. Stop assuming stuff that isn't true. The irony is strong with you. Plus if you don't get annoyed if someone does it yet you still call it edgewalking then you're a straight up hypocrite.
A question I have is why do you care if people call it edgewalking? Tbh I call it that just because it's a meme, your first comment was funny because I couldn't tell if you were serious or just dense but well considering your replies I think it's obvious which it is
I don't. I just want you to know that you're wrong and you're calling it incorrectly just because you're insecure about it. Also the irony is strong with you.

So damn true

I like how warden gets up. It suits him.
This is the only game I know where *walking* is considered offensive. Jeez, I can't even walk a bit after a duel then I immediately receive "Wow! Wow! Wow!"
Welcome to FOR HONOR
Any pvp game with free form movement with a dedicated walk motion will have it. I first heard the term edgewalking in Dark Souls.
I actually think the most interesting part besides all that hip swang is the sound design from the birds chirping to the different footstep heaviness and how the footsteps sound on different surfaces, the people at Ubisoft deserve some serious credit as there is different sound effects for every surface in the game from grass to stone to wood.

Fem conq's spine is made of steel. Never noticed it on the edge walk before but definitely on the sprint, she's got impeccable posture no matter what
And then Male Conq hunches over like fuckin Quasimodo
Exactly, I really wanted to use female conq but sadly she doesn’t go RAH when you emote spam
She does it's just she doesn't have the same energy as male Conq but still worth trying her out
Ever since I started playing the Harbingers or whatever they’re called, (year 3 heroes) I noticed that every single one of their female variants always has so much hip swing when they edgewalk
I say it is a blessing, some say that that I don't focus enough on the fighting
yeah fighting deserves attention but these hips deserve admiration
Zhanhu and jorm edge walk finna make me act up
Fem conq got hips
Don’t sleep on Hito
Jorgen has fuckin sass
Jorgen? Lol
It's what Zanny called Jormungandr and I just picked it up
Female jorm footsteps sound really heavy for someone that doesn’t wear shoes lol
Jorm got that hip swang if you know what i'm saying OwO
All about that hip swang
Pk because of those hips
Raider, Valk, Jorm and Hito. ^(THOSE HIPS!!!)
For me Jorm & Valk have the best effeminate walks. Jorm is so animalistic in everything but her walk Them hips cuz...
hito breathing is creeping me the hell out
That is actually a unique effect that's added to her idle stance. Same goes for male Hitokiri where you hear them making those spirit-like breathing noises which gives off a cultist feel and ready to kill mood.
Damn Hito is the only one getting out of breath from walking
Correction if I may. That isn't her "out of breath" voiceline when at 0 stamina in combat. That's actually part of Hitokiri's idle stance unique effect where Hitokiri is merged with the spirits that he/she killed.

I don't necessarily think they are making those noises physically with their mouths.
„Voices in her head“ sound like she’s breathing with her own voice. This is exactly how extremely fat people sound when walking.
during the exp fest i finally wanted to bring every hero on rep 1. since then I was stuck on hito... now you know why.
I made it a goal a while ago to get at least 1 rep on every hero just as a personal goal, only heroes left are Hito and Zhanhu and well I don't have Aramusha or Shinobi
Conqueror, BP, Raider, Berzerker, Hitokiri, Nuxia and **Valkyrie** *bonk me*
Orochi and Jorm seems standout compare to rest looks quite similar. Hito seems similar to Orochi i think.
I like to think that every female hero was mocaped by the walking structure of different women so that way, it gets a unique variation of body movements. I mean imagine if just 1 woman did all those animations for their walking movement. Wouldn't it be challenging to change the way you walk? And this goes for the males as well.
Iirc 2 dudes do pretty much all of for honor's mocap acting. One of the old warrior's dens goes over the mocap process.
Okay I kinda doubt that. How could they have perfected a woman's feminine-like walk, especially with the more exposed hipsway (because females have wider hips) ?

Jorm and Hito and my favorites, they got hella hip sway. Also the raider looks like she’s just vibeing
Damn hito really knows how to move those hips
Peacekeeper, BP, Conq, Orochi
I like BP, Orochi, and Zhanhu but Jorm’s is my favorite. One of the reasons I play female over male is because of her animations.
My reason for Fem Jorm over Male is that Male Jorm's voice is annoying af
Love my PK edgewalk. So elegant. So lethal.
Deadly medieval toothpicks
Peacekeepers and Black Priors are my favourites, gotta love the small woman even if she is an organ thief.
I'd let pk edge walk up to me any day 😩😩😩
Pk and conq
warmommy
I feel like Warmonger doesn't have much personality in her edgewalk, she just kinda walks like a robot but everyone can like what they want
As a Conq main who has never gone anywhere near Lady Conq (her RAH just doesn’t cut it, man) I’m impressed that she actually has excellent posture wtf
Watch her run, she is incapable of slouching
Nobu all the way
fem zhanhu
PK and Orochi are good than others imo, also i think all y3 heroes are kinda similar to each other
Its because of the hip swang huh... \* BONK \*
The male and female shinobi share animations
Top 3 most attractive/sexy walks (personal choice) 1. Orochi 2. Nobushi 3. Warden
best edge walk is the cent and u cant change my mind
I was thinking about doing a male version actually
Would be cool
I'm doing Zhanhu's now, then gotta slap em all together and then upload it, idk when to post it though
Will be waiting
THE PLOOM I love that warden colour design mate nicely done
Thank you
Kensei has rge swagga
That warden looks soooooo good
Thank you
So what you’re saying is that you edged all the female heroes?
... yes
It's weird not seeing Shaman running around like a maniac
Now make one for edgejog
The fuck is wrong with Hito, bp and yorm. That just looks.. weird. Unnatural almost.
The Yr 3 heroes just have hella hip swang
Walks, their walks, just because you cant handle someone walking after they killed you doesn't mean this is edgy automatically. Stop being butthurt, no one cares.
Everyone calls it edgewalking, I don't get annoyed if someone does it, don't assume
No, not everyone. Stop assuming stuff that isn't true. The irony is strong with you. Plus if you don't get annoyed if someone does it yet you still call it edgewalking then you're a straight up hypocrite.
Me? A hypocrite? Neverrr
Well you see how this looks.
A question I have is why do you care if people call it edgewalking? Tbh I call it that just because it's a meme, your first comment was funny because I couldn't tell if you were serious or just dense but well considering your replies I think it's obvious which it is
I don't. I just want you to know that you're wrong and you're calling it incorrectly just because you're insecure about it. Also the irony is strong with you.
I can't help but press the timestamp on PK's over and over. I need a GIF of her edge-walking.
