I know Rooster Teeth isn’t perfectly game related per se, but their machinimas and miniseries using game assets were transformative for many of us in the gaming community I believe. So I think it fits.

I didn’t know anything about rwby but decided to check out a clip after the closure announcement.

It went from the running animation looks terrible to being blown away by the moves being chained together to form an incredible sequence. Amazing fight choreography that makes me want to check out the series.
Iirc Monty Oum’s fight animations where one of the biggest selling points of the show in the beginning. RIP Monty
clean choreography but lot of the animations look unpolished first drafts and the 3d rendering is fairly bland
Early rwby wasn’t pretty
It may not be “pretty” from an aesthetic standpoint, but you watch Yang vs Neo and tell me that’s not outstanding choreography. Early RWBY was hampered by technical limitations, and after they started the transition to a different rendering pipeline, the aesthetic dramatically improved, but at the same time Monty Oum passed away. What I wouldn’t give to see him after he hit his stride and really go ham. To this day I go back and watch Dead Fantasy 2 just for how insanely good it is for a single person to make that. It’s genuinely better than a huge amount of professional fight scenes made today, which is no knock on them, but Monty was truly something else. Every fight was a dance, and Yang vs Neo is in my top best anime fight of all time. Its short, fast, tight, clearly demonstrates Neo’s utter dominance over Yang, and absolutely sells their characters.
Absolutely. RWBY set the standard for quality when it came to nontraditionally produced shows online and really spawned a new era of independent media.
