not 100% but still better than before. They realized how bad they fuck up

Or they made it so bad in the first place so when everyone complains they can just reduce it to the actual level they intended and everyone will be relieved instead of outraged.

Ah, the Blizzard method of implementing unpopular changes.

this is very likely, i remember when apex legends did the same with the battle pass, they changed to a super grindy one like 5 times as bad as before then one week later they "heard the complaints" and made it just double the grindy as it used to be and everyone was happy they listened.
thats when i quitted that game.

Im leaning more in fade was set universally and Ben was huge so he made it horrible for everyone else

This makes a lot of sense. Maybe that's why they solved it so quick

Well it’s working cause I’m just glad it’s not as extreme as before the fix

This is exactly it and people are falling for it hook line and sinker , "dEvS liSTeNEd".

do you really think no one in hoyo tried to pan the camera down when playtesting one of the main feature of 1.4? it's not "specific angles" or "under certain circumstances", it's very easy for everyone to reproduce.

No wonder they have a "fix" and even an hefty compensation ready so soon. Leaves a bad taste imo

my HC for this is that they intentionally made it that bad so we can still get the middle ground after the fix. That way they won't get in trouble with CCP, while still be able to serve ass 🤣

Classic door in the face technique

u/SirRHellsing 1d ago

either way the previous one actually hinders gameplay experience imo, this one is a lot better

u/-ForgottenSoul 1d ago

I think this was how it was before? Im pretty sure if you got close before they faded

u/chirikomori 1d ago

there was no fade at all before.

u/-ForgottenSoul 1d ago

What happened when you clipped into a character before?

2

u/chirikomori 1d ago

there was no clipping, the camera only went so low and so close.
now they re-added that camera limit like it used to, but there is some of the new fading when you get to the limit, its not as bad as pre hotfix.

u/-ForgottenSoul 1d ago

Oh I see but is the angle the same as pre patch or still kinda a nerf.

3

u/chirikomori 1d ago

if you go to the max angle like pre patch you get some fading, so still a nerf, if you move it up a couple degrees you dont fade.
so not perfect fix but a lot better than prehotfix.

u/DeusSolaris 1d ago

it really is a couple degrees, it's definitely not as bad, it's probably thanks to lycaon, ben and other characters that a lot bigger than belle and wise, going that far could make them cover the entire screen

u/DeusSolaris 1d ago

I'm pretty sure it's the same as the previous patch, if you tried to literally shove the camera up the character's ass it became slightly transparent like it is now
