I don't know who Mao is, but Yoshida did say everyone will get a free fantasia.

The person you responded to thinks its quirky to talk in the third person, I suppose haha. I was confused initially too, but its the name of their character

I'm too tired to go back into the benchmark / game to make comparisons but I just wanted to contribute before bed. I can come back with screenshots later!

Female Raen face type 1 is just completely unrecognisable from my original character. Her lips are a completely different shape, and there's no shine to them anymore. Her whole face looks so flat, her pupils are massive and don't have the same feeling at all. It's crushing when miqo'te looks identical but au ra somehow doesn't...

Female Au Ra, Face type 4, Mouth type 1, has noticeably different lips and changes how my character looks quite a bit. I'm not a big fan of this, and at the very least, I would like there to be an option to have the exact same lip shape and fullness as the current live game.

First is 6.58, second is the Dawntrail Benchmark

I'm checking in here as someone else who's disappointed with the mouth shape/lack of lip gloss :( It completely changes how my character feels. The best way I can describe it is more "puckered in" - it's missing the line/width of the original. Here's a comparison (current on left/new on right) - she really does look quite different!

Glad I wasn't the only one to notice that lmao
I mean the scales look freakin awesome, but c'mon.. what is that pixel chaos on the edges <_<

My girl is not the same anymore, I'm so sad, they messed up the lips so bad... It's not the same at all. Even the nose shape seems too different

It was confirmed in the live letter the other day that they intend to give a fantasia with DT. We were quite certain before that because they hinted it ages ago and they know not to hint something like that if it's not happening.

Seems to be a change in the eyes angle resulting the look going from stern to lazy.

Reporting in to say I am also seeing the artifacting and/or texture mismatch around scales on darker skintones. The issue is definitely present on all skintones and both M+F models, but is really stark on darker ones and almost invisible on lighter ones. This is absolutely a quality error that should be a priority to fix before launch. (Both images on DT benchmark)
