Dawntrail character graphics update - opinions, requests and discussion megathread

[Doopliss]

I don't play this combination, but I haven't seen it mentioned in a while, so I wanted to add that the nose smudge option for ♀ Dunesfolk Face 4 has still not been fixed.

Here's a comparison of the same option on the Plainsfolk variant of the face to show what it's supposed to look like:



I only feel a need to mention this again because, for some reason, the nose smudge issue had been fixed on every female Plainsfolk face, and faces 1-3 for female Dunesfolk, but not 4. So it feels easy to potentially miss.

I know ♂ Viera Face 1 is also having issues with its dark nose/nose smudge option's colors--particularly against dark skin--so please also look over these.

Just checked my retainer. Four months later and they still haven't caught this bug with female Dunesfolk Face 4, lol. I'll try to make a proper bug report on it later. How did they correct every face for each clan except this one...?

Thank you for another update. I will be giving my feedback here.

Face 1 Raen, Eyes 6, Mouth 1, Large irises
7.0


7.1


Apologies for the angles/zooms being different.

I must ask, why are the limbal rings so bright now? Because my pupils are larger, the limbals overpower the irises. I can barely tell what colour my Au Ra's eyes are anymore. Also, the limbal rings appear white even though they are a light purple in the character creator...

I see the lips have been changed and it looks a little better, but they still look nothing like they did in Endwalker. Her smiles are still creepy. And in some lights, I still get the old Face 2 dimples as seen here:



Overall, it is an improvement, but I am unsatisfied. The limbal rings are the most egregious change with how much they overpower the irises and the fact that they lack colour now. The mouth is still the wrong mouth.

I will post again later after I look at my friend's Miqo'te.
