I love the fact that they’re doing this to show us how it’s hard and amazing to do these effects and animations. It warms me heart :smiling_face_with_three_hearts::smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

It’s unfortunate that we do not pay much attention for those during the entire game.

Actually, that means they’re doing their job. Effects should be pretty but never distracting.
