[Graphical Update] Viera Nose

[Ambarhaura]

I play Viera and I love the new nose, it seems like they made it more human-like which I really like as they look more natural, I hope they don't revert the changes.


In the worst case scenario they could give us both options because it's not fair to miss the opportunity of better looks.

They are a race of bunny-people, how is a "more human-like" nose "more natural"? They aren't humans XD

Everyone has a different level of threshold as to where the uncanny valley begins for them. What's a unique and interesting feature to one person can put a design deep into the uncanny valley for another. It's not a logical or informed thing, just subconscious.

Some people are weirded out by your typical catboy/catgirl design not having ears where humans got them, some people are weirded out by more bestial designs like the Hrothgar, some people are super distracted by the Elezen's long necks. Others are not. And by the same token some people may find the nose discolouration weird or distracting. Nothing really to argue about, it's just how people feel about it subconsciously. Which again is why the nose discolouration should be an optional toggle, with the default being switched on so that characters after the update look as close to what they looked to prior as possible.

And everyone who enjoys a less bunnny-like nose can then use their free fantasia to turn it off.

Yea, I'm down for it being optional, but the concern is they showed a side-by-side to show graphical updates and therefore chose analogous faces if not the same options. Which indicates a change, not a new option (unless stated or as many have said, it was un-intentional)

This is my first post here, I just had to come on and add my voice. Please don't take muh bunny nose! We didn't suffer years of hatlessness to look like the more Human-like races.

This is also my first post on the forum. I want to say how much I love my Viera's bunny nose and don't want to lose it. Our Viera noses are a very cute feature and add to the uniqueness of the race. Please let us keep our bunny noses! Thank you
