    I understand that many people prefer the new look of the eyes but I feel like the eye changes are much more further away from the original appeal and appearance of these races. I also feel that some NPC designs will no longer carry the same feeling if they will all be changed to the new style.

    On today's PLL, I was able to notice that the changes to the Lalafell eyes on Yoshida-san's character were most noticeable, more than the original Lalafell comparison picture.



    Here is the Au Ra comparision for posterity:



    Wow Au Ra living up to the Lizard look....I can't see them. DANG YOU EDITED IT IN TIME

    Talk about a waste of time..no matter how many images about the rework are shown...
    I DONT SEE A DIFFERENCE. What a waste of programmer time.

    Now, when we talk about grapes, I saw a difference.

    Honestly the new update makes models look plasticy and the eyes duller/lackluster. I didn't think they can make AuRa more dead inside...

    The lighting is probably also playing a role in that picture, because it's showing the shadows better now.

    I just want to grow a fuller beard without deforming my highlander's face and a crew cut hairstyle to complement

    - Seraphism is BAD.
    - Give us back Shadowflare and make Deployment/Emergency Tactics affect Biolysis
    - Give us back Rouse
    - Make pet management rewarding.

    Isn't the thing for our glow already taken care of?

    I recall it was mentioned in a FFest or Recent previous LL already.

    It was. They already told us there will be an option to have at least the au ra eyes have the LED version of the limbral rings.

    Wait for the banchmark tomorrow, they showed a dunesfolk npc that had the old eyes. Maybe the 7.0 yoshi-p was plainsfolk by mistake.

    My wife who's a self proclaimed lala expert said so, it seems they switched her race on the 7.0 version - or they changed the lala folk really hard lol
