Quote - yes it is nice to be able to quickly import some raw mocap with feet ice gliding all over the floor and figures gliding down stairs wells with ZERO foot contact with the stairs as seen in the "red verses blue video"

I saw all of that, and I saw the effects of IDL rendering with the flickering shadows, and the fact that the characters were all assuming SWAT stances, but to me it didn't matter.  I engaged myself in the story, and the animation was good enough not to dislodge me from it.

But it was the story that carried the day.

The animation wasn't perfect by any means, but I watched the entire 10th season of Red vs Blue because the story hooked me.

Combine that with a high end studio with a warehouse full of dedicated render engines, this thing could rock.

If I had a nickle for ever time a woman told me to get lost, I could buy Manhattan.
