I'm currently sitting about 7/10, personally.
While not the sole reason for the lower-than-most's score, one critique at the forefront of my mind right now is that the animations are atrociously janky. I am constantly pulled out of my immersion during dialogues by character animations that are robotic, glitchy, or just downright counter to what I'd expect my character to do.
The animation may be not the smoothest but I think the facial expressions are great
Eehhh I don't know, some of the facial expressions are the worst. The camera often cuts to my character with a brain dead stare or some over the top weird smirk.
Be like me and go Dark Urge backstory. I can't tell if the animation I just saw was jank or intentionally creepy. Really elevates the immersion.
Yeah I get what you mean, IMO there's a mix of well captured body language and sometimes wonky facial animations, they probably acted some dialogues and just used some other standard animations for some other characters
