Dawntrail character graphics update - opinions, requests and discussion megathread

[Len_]

Something really went wrong with fem Aura. They just look haggard now...

[CecMiller]

As I've said before, I'll say it again : d

The pupils are TOO big : d. Its the #1 complaint for au ra.

Look at my adventure plate portrait - It was massacred. Someone turned the bulbs off. Where are the whites of my eyes man : d

After on the left (DT), before on the right (EW)

This has to be bait. That or dudes playin on an old CRT monitor on exceptionally low graphics.

Nah im actually playing the game instead of spending all my time in gpose staring at my character...

My character feels like she has a completely different valence, she went from having a soft simper to having a resting slightly pissed off face. But it is more than that, I barely even recognise her at times, it looks like someone dumped massive amounts of make-up on her, lip gloss, mascara and gave her a not entirely thought through plastic surgery operation. Her eyes have this unfocused glaze, as if she is high.

So much of this game is tied to my character, for the past 9 years. If she gives a completely different feel when I look at her, I am not sure if I want to continue playing the game. To say that such a statement pains me deeply would be an understatement.

[CecMiller]

Just to emphasize the difference.

Look at this shit - its so fucking funny xd

Exhibit A: DT



Exhibit B: EW



I look like someone killed my entire family in DT, but I'm managing to hang on : d

Lips looks much worse, too "plasticky" and defined, they have changed shapes and colors lost all gradient (and most of light/moisture), also the "light lip color" looks very weird and grayish... meanwhile the dark version is too dark now

Also hair looks worse, it lose it's shine and instead of hair looks more a wig of plastic strings :/

I want to make a proper post with photos of all I'm talking about but I feel this complaints were done already with the benchmark both the first and 1.1 and we were not listened at all...

Surely you are spending all your time in cutscenes staring at your character? Right?

[Batbrat]

Hi there, when you go into your house, the lighting is VERY weird!!
Please make it less weird, thank you

Regarding the changes between the benchmark and 7.0, it seems the skin shade was readjusted, there might be something different around the inner eyes and the eyes seem a tad longer. Maybe, if I zoom in. These do help a little (?).

one thing about the skin shade - try turning down your character lighting. i had it up to 100 before DT and when i logged in everyone was like comedically glowing. i turned it completely off and skin looks a bit more like from the benchmark.

btw, your character is super pretty, even post graphical updates. but yeah i agree she lost some of her je ne sais quois.

Will try that, thank you.

And also thank you, yes, she's still pretty, just differently so...
