The New Sage Icon, Thoughts?

[Bright-Flower]

This seems like such a non issue that I'm surprised they felt the need to explain changing the icon and that anyone has particularly strong feelings either way about the change in design regardless of the explanation. Outside of people with actual said phobias who may have personally been affected.

Pretty sure they aren't holes. Those are different colored fur splotches.

A hide with that many holes in it is useless.

But keep at it folks.

“Trypophobia is an aversion to the sight of irregular patterns or clusters of small holes or bumps.”
It aint just holes sis.

And I'm not the one throwing a fit over a job icon change lmao.

Nobody is 'throwing a fit', though.

The people who are outraged are those launching personal attacks at anyone who is indifferent or refusing to clap and cheer as is a common tactic in this day and age. Speaking out in a discussion thread isn't equal to outrage.

Unless, of course, you're referring to those self-same people?

You right sis, but the leatherworker one I wouldn't call irregular.

Those are mostly symmetrical.

Because it is as a hide? And it's not the same color. They are black splotches, not gray.

Have you ever seen a deer hide?

I know what deer hide looks like. I know hide can be repaired if it is "fresh" enough.

I'm pointing the obvious, you're the one trying to tell other people that holes in a hide aren't actual holes, but splotches?

I guess the black/white highlights around your so-called splotches are totally not an indication that there is a perception of depth/3d. Look at how the top is brighter while the bottom is darker. Do you know how light works?

I don't know, I see far more people upset at the change. Again, this should have just been "Oh no! Anyway...."

This sets a dangerous precedent.

I'm getting worried about Endwalker.

Now c'mon now.

That's probably the case for most people on and off the forums. I know it is for me. This thread is mostly the same group of people expressing their discontent over and over with the rest wondering what the big deal is. That's their right, but...I think they are making a big deal out of something small.

[IsisaTyatu]

I don't understand why so many people in this thread seem to lack empathy and common sense. It's such a small change to be somehow upset over.
