Dawntrail character graphics update - opinions, requests and discussion megathread

[Iscah]

Dark circles still have not been removed from Duskwight males despite it being a universally disliked addition by every single poster in the JP forum.

Considering that it is not even a model change just a simple texture, their refusal to return their racial feature (no eyebags) is baffling.

I'm not certain that it's only a texture change.

I have not had a chance to see what the character looks like now in the live game, but I've posted this comparison previously, from the first version of the benchmark (hiding it under a drop-down box because it's labelled 7.0 but isn't):

You can see that the line of the tattoo now has a sharp crease under the eye rather than the gentler curve.

Either the original tattoo design is floating in front of the face and not going all the way into the crease below the eyelid, or they've changed the shape of the face.

And I did play around with turning the camera to different angles on the original character to see if there was a spot where the tattoo did look creased like that, but if it exists then I failed to find it.

The shadowed eyebags seem to be a new issue for so many characters, and I really hope they can turn it off in the same way they've deliberately stopped some hairstyles from casting shadows on the face.
