I still don’t understand why Assassin’s Creed 3’s Connor walked like that Why is he so SLANTED

do my eyes deceive me, or are you attemption to bring into question Ratonhnhaké:ton's aura?

He’s a 6 foot tall giant who eats templars for breakfast so fair enough

yessir! 🫡 also, attempting* 💀

I always interpreted it as he's constantly on alert and checking his surroundings, the shifts are him adjusting to check rooftops from beneath his hood etc

Well he is a Native American during the American revolution in white towns so him walking cautiously 24/7 is not very surprising

lmao you’re so right for this but it’s also why i often walked super slow during missions. it looks so much more menacing if you walk inch by inch

His run animation is my fave

Same, his entire movement just has such a unique style to it

Cuz it was a cool animation (fuck ye)

Because that’s the way Ninja’s walk dummy

Cause of CHARLES LEE

Constant aura farming

Channeling that inner Randy Orton

cause connor is fucking GOAT and goats walk however they fucking want

When you’re surrounded by people that hate you at the time, would you not walk cautiously among them?

They wanted to make Connor way more broad then altair and ezio so I think that translated in giving him a kind of bulky walk, it’s easier to translate someone’s size if they’re not as nimble with their movements lol

aura

I always liked to think that he is always checking corners, observing etc.

native american dick was different brotha

All Connors walk funny

I always suspected he walked that way because the animus copied his movements from after he was stabbed in the lower torso area at the end of the game. But by a mile he’s the best Assassin imo.

i'll state the unobvious: cuz his balls are MASSIVE they're weighing him down

because he actually has sauce unlike most games today

@GenePark Characters in AC didn't walk right until HE stepped in.

tbf when you’re a kenway you can do what you want

To be fair for Ratonhnhaké:ton he's always lived in the forests, and the colonists are expanding, I interpret it as him experiencing the cities wonder, but also being on high alert since he might be attacked.

@GenePark His animation all round was amazing. Ezio was all style, grace and flair. Connor was an absolute brute. Loved the contrast.

He's uncomfortable in the city, is my guess. I imagine it's incredibly overwhelming compared to how he grew up. That and he's always on alert.

Bro was leaning into every conversation before it even started. 😭

I always felt like this is due to his cautious nature. How maybe he doesn't fully trust his surroundings.

Nah I love his walk, also love how before every AC protagonist used to have different walking and running animations/styles 👌🏼

I used try to imitate this walk when I was younger lol. To me it looks like a cautious/curious walk on account of him not trusting this new world

Aura

they really made his whole body look animated for the sake of looking animated. excessively tilting his shoulders and weird posture movements for no damn reason lmao

He belongs to forest 🫈

His father walked the same exact way lmao

I really liked it. Because his walk looks like if he always on his guard for anything
