Thancred's new face

I was worried about how he would turn out from the trailer before release, but I'm insanely disappointed with the way his face has changed.
He used to use a completely unique sculpt, but his current face is much more similar to Midlander 1, sharing identical lip and nose shapes. I much preferred his unique face, and I'd like if it was brought back.

Edit: I've seen many others with the same concerns, and I am hoping we'll be able to garner enough attention from the devs regarding this issue!

With that in mind, here's a site made by one of my friends detailing all of our concerns: https://savethancred.carrd.co/
Please give it a look, and share this topic so we can raise awareness!

Agreed, Thancred looked notably off model in Dawntrail compared to every other Scion. It was jarring.

the features that made him... well, him... are gone and its been almost difficult to look at him now
he definitely got the short end of the stick when it came to the update, cause every other scion looks just fine :/

Adding my support to this - please put back his old model! He looked great as he was, and I don't know why he needed to change at all. :(

Out of all the scions he seriously got the short end of the stick. He is nigh unrecognizable and seeing him takes me out of the story. Adding my +1 and hoping something will come out of this.

I didn't notice a difference.

They also updated Minfilia's face (though only as Word of the Mother/Oracle of Light? For some reason?) and, much like Thancred, she looks barely distinguishable from a regular face 1 Midlander now... Like, yeah, she was one in 1.0, but they went to the trouble of giving her a unique face in the transition to 2.0 so it's kind of weird...

Here are some good comparisons (thank you to MicaelaWaters_T on Twitter). Most of it is the lips, but the nose has also been significantly changed.

Please bring back his old model! He looked fine as he was!

ugh idk why they're so obssessed with the detailed philtrum, he never had one that was so prominent?? I noticed it in player faces...

This is not Thancred :(

I know… the philtrum is such a big problem on the Hyur races especially. Even if they hadn’t changed the eyes and mouths, the overly prominent philtrum is just adding to the eery look so many are complaining about.

You said it best: This is not Thancred.
