Left is before, right is after. Not really a fan of how much narrower her mouth became, as well as how the corners are perpetually upturned.

I think these might be some of the worse I have seen, I can totally see why you are unhappy. Those are different characters!!! The only one I cn KINDA forgive is the bottom one.

The eyebrows are the only thing I'm just sort of wincing at when it comes to certain Midlander male faces. It's the one thing that'll take time to get adjusted to although I certainly wouldn't complain if they did fix them!

I do not like how different she looks-- like COMPLETELY changed??

It's a massive problem with au ra face 2. I don't see why it was changed at all. It doesn't seem like a matter of lighting. The mouth itself got narrower, and there's zero way to change it in the CC. All you can change is how full the lips are, not the width.

I'm just confused... I don't get why they decided to make female highlander face 1 eyebrows thinner, with the facial feature on, they're as thin as the current (6.58) eyebrows with the facial feature turned off.

Current w/ facial feature on.

Benchmark w/ facial feature on.

Apart from this I do not have any issues with the changes.

Hopefully that gets tweaked at some point in the future.

My miqo'te doesn't actually have this hair in game, but I have Aymeric's hair and it won't show up in the creator lol.

The miqo'te face 2, eyes 3 looks different with the graphics update. They're less upturned than before and now comes with really thick lashes that can't be turned off.. The inner eye part looks different too which I'm sad about because it looked more cat-like before!! The lips look a little different too, but I imagine my character having completely different looking lips than what's available in the game so I don't really mind it.

As for my other WoL, like many other viera players, I'm missing the current lips because of the defined v-shape of the inner/middle part of the lip. And not a fan of the darkened nose. He also had light lip color on but the gloss was removed (it's more matte in the update) so I just ended up removing it all together :\ The hair shine for my viera specifically looked really weird in the creator, but I know the lighting already sucks in the creator.

...boy, I sure hope I can still fix FFXIV's godawful saturation with reshade after this update

turning down the gamma and looking at the actual benchmark lighting does her a LOT of favors. this doesn't look too bad
