Benchmark/Graphics Update - Show your WoL's before and after

[Nebty]

Thanks I hate it.

Dittoing everything people said about the mouth looking drastically different. That's also going to have knock-on effects on every single one of her facial expressions.



Her eyebrows are noticeably thinner with zero options to make them thicker in the CC. Her smiles look sarcastic now because they made her mouth narrower and just pinched up the edges. The lip shine is gone. I'm very happy for the people who like their new characters but I'm absolutely devastated.



How on earth did they manage to make her face less round???

[Burmecia]

Utterly downgraded i hate it!

It's present in several other comparisons too, but this was the one I was looking at when the words came to me:
new look looks like sticker on top of background, like the character and forest dont exist in same space at all.

And here we see Azurhi both pre-and post-good graphics adventure



...boy, I sure hope I can still fix FFXIV's godawful saturation with reshade after this update

99% of before/afters of Keeper girls make me more upset than I could have expected.

As a fellow Face 2 haver, I share your pain They completely messed up the lips and I really hope they can be changed back to how they were.

I'm undecided on the changes.

the hightlight dot made a WORLD of difference and I want it back



This is someone elses beautiful character that i added the highlight dot back into on the bottom image using paint and to me its night and day . Both images are 7.0 moon miqote

Honestly, they just need to do this and I wouldnt gripe nearly as much about everything else ...

[Lupis]

I play an Ardbert NPC clone as my main!



I acknowledge being overly picky, but I really, really dislike the changes. His jaw changed a fair bit due to the shading but the worst of it is his eyes, which are distinctly differently shaped- he looks like a completely different person now. I'm really surprised, considering he's got the most base face! I checked in the benchmark as well as CC and his eyes and facial structure look even more jarringly different in the benchmark.

Both pictures are the updated version. Just popping back here to say somehow the sunlight in the creator is the biggest enemy and makes the colours go bonkers. In the blue screen my viera actually almost looks like he always did, which is okay with me.
Again, in the benchmark he was super nice, so idk what the deal with the visuals in the creator are.
