Sure it's a good idea to remove the static light dot from the eyes?

And I chose that picture because the light it in was being cast from the side of his head, which is exactly what's happening in the Au Ra example and why her eyes aren't lit up like a Sailor Moon character. Unfortunately I do not have a personal archive of portraits with lighting from every conceivable angle so I have to work with what I can find, which happened to be a black and white picture. A photo being in black and white doesn't prevent you from seeing catch lights if they are present.

It's like you didn't see the other photo I posted three posts down from my first one, or the ones from other Final Fantasies that another person posted, at least a few of which were in dark or dimly lit areas. There is a reason that most games with this kind of style make the eyes look wet or shiny even when it's dark, because it looks uncanny to just be dull.

all of these are from cutscenes which, like photoshoots , are specifically and meticulously crafted for vewing pleasure

most of the time, in game, they look liike this





not liek, bad, and these eye shine sure, but of course lightning, effects, shadows on the face. Arnt goign to be as important as wehn the game going into "Story cutscene moment"

Sure, but the second photo seems shot with the intention of mimicking natural lighting – and this entire game effectively is a photoshoot or movie set with the power to place studio lights wherever they feel like it, even in configurations that would be impossible in real life.

Not entirely true, nor would i want it to be. But for studio lightning thats when we have "special cutscene moments" hence why so many people (not all, but plenty) mention the BM itself feeling better than the cc.

and you know, gpose, where specialty lightning and other effects can be used.
