Dawntrail character graphics update - opinions, requests and discussion megathread

[Plasmaspy]

Soo, this is what happened to my Au Ra... not really sure where to go from here because the changes are pretty massive imo. I already adjusted some colors here, especially lip color which was way too dark in the original 7.0 version. Also emotes and some cutscenes seem a little off now. A lot of expressions feel dulled down compared to 6.5.

Same here

Been playing through the MSQ on a new character, and Papalymo is still rocking his old self.
Needless to say, he stands out with his blurry, blocky, washed-out face and corners everywhere.

The upgrade was the best thing to happen to this game, and people got a free Fantasia to make adjustments.

You can't use fantasia to adjust it back to your character though.
A fantasia won't give me back my character.

Right. It won't turn you back into a blurry pixel mess.

Thats not the issue.
The face is different.
I wouldn't have any issue at all if they just ugraded the texture/quality.



Just editing the mouth back to the old makes it so much better.
The eyes need to change back too and then the issues people are having would be 99% solved.

Yeah of course they're different. They said they'd keep the "spirit" of the face and warned that some features will look different. They delivered exactly what they promised. If you were fond of exactly those changed details, then that's regrettable, but I don't see them roll back all their changes, or iterate on and on forever, until the last player is satisfied.

Perfection is the enemy of progress.

Just block them (you can go to their profile and select "add to ignore list"). Clearly they just want insult people rather than engage on this topic in good faith.

When this was first announced, I made the comment that I could barely see any change at all in the comparison videos I watched. I was attacked and laughed at. And now, the graphics update is here and people are discussing the fact that nothing really changed. I'm over here eating popcorn as I read this thread.

The changes are much more obvious to people that have been familiarized with their character for many years.
The only people that hand wave or complain that people are wrong for reporting their personal feedback either;
don't care,
like the changes,
their character wasnt impacted,
use fantasia often,
or use mods to alter their appearance anyway.
