Small bug with the "holding hands" animation

[Anxious Ferret]

Just today, i was playing through and trying to unlock all the achievements in the game and when I was getting the holding hands achievement, I noticed that the animation was off. It registered as them holding hands so it did not prevent me from getting the achievement but it showed mono's stiff arm and not holding six's hand. This bug never happened before and I would love for some advice on how to fix this animation bug.

I have checked integrity game files
I uninstalled the game and reset it completely
Nothing has worked so far.

Buggy hand holding

When i click to have mono hold six's hand, they seem to be holding the air instead. Uninstalled and reinstalled again, checked integrity of files but the problem is still there

I have the same issue too! Before the glitch started happening, did you get a notification from steam saying that the game was disconnected from the cloud, like I did? I reconnected, but then the glitch started happening. Anyways, thanks for starting the discussion, i thought i was the only one with this issue.

I also have the same issue, tho I have it from the beggining. :( They are not holding hands, just touching air. It's a shame couse it's so cute when they hold hands ._. (and also sometimes animations like climbing up or opening door are also happening above the location so like in the air)

Same issue here, I bought it last night & saw the characters "holding hands" two feet apart. While in the trailers & gameplay videos it shows to be legit correct contact hands placement.

It's not game breaking lol, just very immersion breaking with all the other attention to details in this game...

Yeah, this glitch only started happening (for me, anyways) about two days ago. Is that the same for everyone else here?

Also having this issue since I bought the game yesterday

yep, we talked about this same bug in another discussions page, it seems to be happening to a lot of people.

I'm having the same issue, I stopped playing the game for a few weeks and I recently came back to it and I notice that mono and six's hands don't touch anymore, the same animation bug happens when rotating levers around, the hands are just floating in front instead of on the lever. maybe the recent patch have something to do with it?
I tried integrity game files
reinstalling
manipulating cloud saves
nttn worked.

yea i hope they release a new patch. I don't know y this is happening, and so late after the release.

I also have the same issue and a discussion about this. I think it's a bug that came with the patch/update recently. I think with enough people (apparently everyone at this point) having the same issue, the creators will catch wind and post an animation fix soon.

Have the same issue tho I've noticed it's not just the handholding. Mono's animations in general seem to be misaligned and off in the entire game.

same here :(

Mono's animations misaligned

Anyone else noticed that Mono's animations are misaligned all of a sudden? they worked fine my first few runs but now they're off and it takes me out of the game, like I've noticed people bring up the handholding ones but it seems to just be all of his animations that are broken.
