    Leave both options for the "synthetic" ones and the "natural ones" is a good compromise here, but that "upgrade" shouldnt be forced on aura players imo, both should stay an option.

    I heavily dislike the new limbal rings, while I loved the old ones, they gave a shiny effect and it was fun to have on my aura alts.

    limbal rings literally are synthetic, though. they were revealed a few months back to be magic in origin to explain how Jandelaine is able to change them.

    Then you can pick a darker color and it'll look natural. The change would bar the option of making the limbals look prosthetic.

    It’s fine you like it. However, considering the rings are magically applied rather than a natural feature, I like the old led look.

    I am hoping that the eyes get adjusted a bit more, overall as eyes they look better, but I want the glow to be prominent as well

    But that's the way it was until DT though, so both should stay an option, I personally dont think it looks better.

    You don't have to be an android to use prosthetics.

    The Jarring is clearly cause they updated the amount of pixels are located on the eye.

    With The New Being rounder than the old.

    ----------------‐----------------------------------------------------------

    While I enjoy my alts, I'm an Au Ra Main ATM.

    And honestly, if they truly want to follow the motto of keeping things the same, the glow of the limbal rings, and the option to not have them toggled on is changing what our characters look like.

    in contradiction to how they wish to keep characters recognizable to their old selves but improved.

    I like the mix my characters have with a Lilac/Red/Pink(aka Purple/Red/Pink) in their eyes with the color on the limbal ring being one of those colors washing some of the others down.

    This will absolutely change how the Character looks and feels.

    Which based on their concern about keeping the look the same. It is of deep concern for them.
    (even if it was the slip of a hand, and the color was changed. They Should make sure it isnt. As it cannot be changed/reverted afterwards.
    it's one and done when updated.)

    Which means that everyone should be taking screenshots of their characters and taking stock of their settings in character creation in case something changes terribly.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    You also have to keep in mind, it isn't even totally prosthetic, or android eyes.
    Living beings can have glow in parts of their body, so regardless of what you expect of biology, some light bioluminescence is possible in the eye around a specific part of their sight.

    Now if you like this new natural look, it's fine to have it.
    But as an additional option, not a replacement of the existing thing people have grown with.
    The Glow and No Limbal Ring should be Glow/No LR/"Natural/Glowless", instead if No LR/"Natural/Glowless".

    I fear the only way they can get it back is to lower the graphical settings.

    Either way the devs keep telling us theyre wanting to preserve the general look players have grown accustomed with the updates so I support giving both options
