If there's one thing I loathe in videogames, it's super exaggerated anatomy, like gigantic boobs on females and gigantic arm muscles on men. One of the reasons I like XIV's visual style is because they keep the anatomy to a decent level.

So it's not a deal breaker for me, especially since I don't play Miqo'te, but I can definetly see why some people are bothered with it. The difference from before is really quite drastic. And the anatomy was never exaggerated.

And while it probably sounds both perverted and silly, I really wish males had a little bit more definition of their private area. I'm not talking about 'woa check out the package!', just a hint of this actually being a male, not a female. -.-

Why does no one ever point out the fact that the Miqo'te in these comparison pictures aren't standing the same? It says 'same view,' but that couldn't possibly be further from the truth. The posture is different, radically so. That alone is responsible for the vast majority of the difference. Show me two pictures from the same angle, in the same pose, then we can properly compare.

Though - why does this even matter? Why does this keep being brought up?

You can't. They radically changed the standing posture of female Miqote and it exasperated the change so much that as another has pointed out, most people bothered by this are indeed female Miqote players. And it keeps getting brought up because we care about how our characters look.

Who is staring at their ass that much in the game to care?
Seriously, I'm a woman irl, I also care about my character looking good.
But I noticed my butt was smaller and went, "Oh, that sucks" *moved on*.

Mainly cause I'm not staring at my ass 24/7!! lol

They already gave us an answer why they did it guys, please just accept it >_<.

I hate when my hips clip through the sides of my clothes,

I hate the bald spots in my hair (not related to lower body but giant bald spots is ugly regardless, I care deeply for my characters and having them look like a glitchy mess just urks me.),

I hate having my legs burst out of my clothes when I do emotes.
I feel it is related to how the lower body of characters currently are and would love a fix.
I care about how my character looks and would love to run around this beautiful world without without worry of my leg clipping outside clothes I wear, or pixel's missing from my leg.

And even if it is not related,
It still looks wrong to me. oh, and guess what i'm female too, that doesn't mean I should give up or not care.

It has been a long time since the first response from Takeo Suzuki, i'm just hoping and praying there will be a change in the future or at least options.

First, calm down I'm just talking to you (but I can bold things too if you want), not jumping your case.
Second, those have nothing to do with butts, those are graphical glitches for your race/gender & will probably be fixed.
The clipping through clothes happens to all of us and Yoshi already said clipping will happen. I hate it too but its not that big of a deal.
And as for the bald spots in hair, yea we ALL have them. If everyone pans their cameras up super close & looks at every fricken angle you will find your hair does not connect to your head, mine has it too. Its not perfect but the ones that really need fixing will get fixed. Butts are not one of those.

They gave an answer for it, so hopefully your GRAPICAL BUGS get fixed, truly.

My point still stands on butt size though, idk why it is such a problem to accept what they said and move on. *shrug*

It didn't only affect the Miquotes, it affected everyone! Even my hyur use to have a normal looking butt, now it looks awkward and pencilish. Even with the new /changepose emote there's an unnatural arc from her back to her legs.

Hey Rae, just wanted to say I definitely commend the revival of this subject at risk to your posting privileges (I imagine they'll roll out suspensions eventually for this topic) and give you my 100% support.

I posted this comparison in both of the previous (latter?) butt threads, but here it is again.

To everyone saying no change has happened, you're wrong. Plain and simple:

1.xx:


2.xx:


Different areas (Yoshi nuked Iron Lake), but the pose is the same. Same camera angle and more or less same zoom.

You can easily see that there's a huge change. I want my hips back.

I see...

minimal differance (actually I don't see much of any) in the hips and....a slightly better defined rib cage in the 2.0 image.

edit: actually the 2.0 image the hips look more proportional to the rib cage (the rib cage appears to be slightly wider), rather than the minimal difference to the 1.0 which actually makes the model look slightly pear shaped (rib cage seems almost straight from waist to armpit). But again...I'm having to squint and turn my head to even see it, but in this (former) artists opinion... Edge goes to 2.0 for looking more " human ", 1.0 looks like a stick stuck in a cantaloupe.
