Graphical update/Benchmark feedback - Female midlander face 4

[Ibbers]

I am sorry, but with the exception of the lips, I see vast improvements here. Improved hair texture and facial shadows. Ears have more detail and don't look pinned on. The face is rounder and more feminine. Your face does appear sadder, and this might be due to a slightly different eye shape and lip shape. I can understand your issues here.

Also of note the details on the camise are improved as well. The buckles look more metallic and have better definition. I can also clearly see the lace holes on the sleeves and corset. The Midlander also has a more hourglass shape to her and has apparently received a breast lift to boot.

If this is what I can expect with my own Midlander, I will be quite happy. Especially knowing that the aetherial blue background is one of the worst to view your characters in comparison to the actual game.

I don't deny that there are graphical improvements here and there, but you have to understand that people have a certain perspective of their character (they are the ones who made the character after all), and that's the most important thing to them. It's not exactly rocks or flowers or other inanimate objects we're talking about here.

I feel like I can speak for many people when I say that preserving the feeling or vibe of their character is far more important, and it seems like a rather unpalatable thing to give up in exchange for slightly less pixelated hair strands or somewhat softer face shadows. We're not the developers, so we don't know how easy or hard it is to preserve our characters' facial features while still improving details, but it's not unreasonable to give them feedback to ask if they could try to make them look more similar. If it's too difficult or time-consuming, no harm no foul to the developers, but hey, at least we asked right?

Also just to be clear, I don't have a problem with the body shape or the clothes. It's just the facial features. And I'm not sure if you read my post in full, but as I've said, I've actually ran the benchmark in full to observe my character and the facial features were still off.
