Lefties don't do those celebrations because they're the only somebodies in their right mind

I agree totally and posted something similar in a different thread. It’s supposed to be a real simulation and they add straight garbage animations for HR and celebrations. It’s been 3 yrs with the same 6 swings and why haven’t they unlocked player specific HR animations to every player. I hope that is the next step. That way we would have 40 or fifty animations for each player to choose from. I will never play RTTS and it’s said that’s the way they are pushing the game. Otherwise I love the game just hate that they put hard work into the wrong things imo

This destroys a little bit the atmosphere of the game. i mean this celebration animations look not good, feels silly to me and it happens too much.

generally the animations need more tuning in a realistic way like NBA2k18...

For a game that is so focused on realism, you'd think that when they add this much-needed layer to the game, they wouldn't jump straight from the same tired animations we've seen since 2008 to animations that are over-the-top and never once seen on a baseball field before

How does a team of developers look at literally Every. Single. Player-specific HR celebration that they have already and be like... "yea, I see a lot of salutes to the heavens and pounding of chests, but what this game needs is MOONWALKING TO THE PLATE AND BEING A DOUCHE TO THE 3RD BASE COACH YEAHHH"

Yeah they are insane. I laugh at them and I probably did something between a laugh and a "what even did I just see like what was that" when I saw a cartwheel onto home plate. Certainly not realistic relative to MLB. They'd probably get fined or something.

Some of it isn't terrible but some are way over the top. I can only imagine what everyone was thinking when he did that cartwheel lol.

It's a shame though because this was absolutely necessary, but the way they handled it was in the most tone deaf way possible.
