Or maybe it’s just the lighting in which I looked at my character? I’m not sure; he just feels off to me).

At least it seems like the character’s expressions have improved. Before, it looked like he was smiling to hide how dead he felt inside, but now there's been some improvement—except for the "Big Grin" emote.


EDIT

I decided to look for old images on Discord to compare my character, and I totally regret it. Now I’m just frustrated and want my character back. The face is definitely a lot rounder. When looking at the images below, keep in mind that I changed my character’s lip shape and eye color, as well as my use of Reshade.

This is an image I took from the EW benchmark, and next to it, an image I tried to match at the same angle. The expression is also much worse than it used to be.
I have no idea what they did with the /annoyed expression, but it's completely different. The inner eyebrows raise more and it gives it more of a concerned expression, but I didn't have the photos to compare myself, just that I KNEW it was different, so thank you for the evidence.

Sigh. I feel like this face is so unpopular that it won't get fixed. I'm trying to console myself a bit and tell myself it's not as bad as I think, but I love my boy. He's my rp main, I've been rping on him for a year now, he's based off of my late bunny. I CAN'T change him. But he's been changed... I can't get over how they made him softer. I wanted a strong viking man...
