Some people requested it...
its funny when you hit the snake-s leg with the hilt of the sword:)
Yeah but making emotes relative to the strength of the hit is a little simpler and more commonplace than making every emote relative to reality.
Well all emotes in the game is ridculous if you think about it. You really think i could hit someone back after they plunge the sword into my chest, and so many others.
He bleeds you to near-exhaustion, and you lose 2hp.
Fucking ridiculous emote choice.
