A dramatic slow-motion moment that ends on time and eases back
Slow motion for a last kill or a near miss often lasts five times longer than planned, snaps back with a jerk, or cuts the sound at a strange moment. The cause is which clock measures the effect. Here is the shape of the ramp and how long to hold.
Why this works
An effect that is meant to last a moment must be measured by the clock on the wall, not by the slowed game, or it drags out and never ends. A gentle ride down and back up reads as drama, while a sudden jump back reads as a glitch.
When not to use it
Avoid it in online or competitive games, where one player cannot slow time for the others, and in fast games where it breaks the rhythm. Use a camera zoom, a colour change or a brief freeze to mark the moment instead.
