Idle 'Movement' in JRPG's

[JayJayinMay]

Ok,youve all seen it.Even if you dont like Jrpgs.When the characters are waiting for orders in the battle system or just standing still doing nothing and just Move.Those who played FF 13,just watch Sazh for a few seconds without giving an order.Thats what i class as Idle Movement.

We get it,they are alive,you dont need to show it by making them Dance.

I like it, actually. It's not just in JRPGs, you know, most games have them if you wait long enough. Heck, you learn pretty quick to never keep Sonic waiting for longer than 3 minutes in Sonic CD, or else.

I like it, if I zone out it reminds me that, hey, I'm playing a game. And also some games actually get a little clever with them, though none come to mind right now. But I'm fairly certain I've seen one that made me laugh.

Ristar had pretty good idle animations.
