Updated benchmark

[Doopliss]

I apologize for this but curiosity got the best of me during lunch.

Didn't realize you played Dawntrail early than everybody else to know that. Also guess you missed the media tour and didn't hear how everybody said its like 2months old and you can clearly see the updated lighting and textures...I suggest giving them a watch unless you don't want spoilers. Then in that case, don't speak on this unless you know what you're talking about.

Or here, since it appears you struggle to read.

Going to be blunt. Its because you want/ like the echo chamber going on there. Unlike americans/EU, the japanese are less likely to speak up and defend what they like when they see the majority being dissatisfied, there were a couple of comments saying they like the changes but they were quickly drowned out by just like NA, the same people posting. There are other factors too but basically just cultural differences in forum etiquette between JP and NA/EU. Over here we're not afraid to call you out more often like I'm doing now.
Overall. You just want a echo chamber its why you get annoyed.

Your insecurity reeks. My post wasn't directed at you in particular but I see I hit such a nerve that your only way of coping now is to attempt to be a bad armchair psychologist toward people you lack better arguments for.

I post there because the moderators are present and it's more organized, and even then it's been a total of five posts; with the large ones being mainly posts about bugs or oversights I believe people missed, or going out of my way to actually defend the developers, lol. I had a couple of small replies to other ENG speakers.

Actually It does affect me because a lot of requests are things I like. You sound like a hypocrite with the "well got mine so screw you" because that can go both ways no? Everything else you said is subjective. Male au ra iris were always hard to see even in the 6.58 because their iris are really small. Not sure what you mean by au ra scuffed textures...they scales? Iris sizes changes significantly? hyperbole won't help you btw... lips are way more defined actually rather than looking like plastic gloss like in 6.58.
The rest you pointed out are obvious bugs so not sure why you included it other than to attempt to make the graphics update sound bad and fluff your post.

I see you don't know what the word hypocrite means.

Male Au Ra irises are not currently hard to see, and lip gloss being better has nothing to do with the actual model definition. That's a hyperbole, dude.

If you look at the numerous posts about Au Ra outside of your obsession with their baby-like enlarged pupils, you can see they still have artifacts around their leg scales, particularly Raen. Female Au Ra face type 1 and 4 still have awkward, ugly rounded-out edges that used to be pointed. Male Au Ra face type 4 has the same issues. Go compare the fem Au Ra face type 1 "small pupil" option's iris size in the benchmark to the live version.

You're free to open the benchmark at any time and look with your eyes.

Also, I bring up the bugs because having such a large amount of them three weeks before launch is absurd. The developers clearly haven't been given enough time and I'm worried about them. But you can continue pretending things are objectively better.

Overall go post on the JP forums if you don't want to be challenged.(Though other than a couple of posts to spread your feedback. I think its cringe to -keep- posting in a foreign forums and chat when you don't even speak their language and the only way to talk to them is through a translator. Its why when I posted there I didn't try to talk with people.)
Btw....posting in the JP won't make your feedback get heard anymore than posting in your native language. The JP players said multiple times the grass isn't greener on the other side and more than one person said JP players actually think SE listens to us more just like how we think SE listens to JP more.

That's cool, man. I thought it was pretty cringe of you to keep posting that large list of twitter screenshots on the JP thread without poster permission, and then proceed to get into a back-and-forth with someone there. I've left posts I've disagreed with alone there, personally.

Kind of hypocritical, yeah?

Basically....Just because you don't get what you want doesn't mean SE isn't listening and posting in the JP forums won't increase your chances of getting what you want. If anything I bet your feedback won't even get forwarded to the DEV's since I'm told its very obvious when people use a translator for japanese and it makes it hard to read for native speakers.

1 for 1 for "shit I made up and am stating like it's more of a fact". Anyway, I'm done with this thread 'cause I said everything I had to say for real, and I should take my own advice. Cope, seethe, etc. See ya.
