Oh boy

I want to start that I love the upgrade to the environment and gear; they look absolute beautiful. The characters, on the other hand, are a much more complicated can of worms. Some look fine, great even! Others, however, have suffered because features have been changed. There's characters here who have completely different mouth and nose shapes, the eyebrows have had their shape changed in some way or the cheeks had been made more full, and changing facial features will frustrate people. It changes the 'feel' of the character and that, while nebulous for some to describe, is important to people.

Admittedly, I feel uncertain about how my boy looks. They've changed the eye shape and aged the stubble face quite a lot, and while I can only guess that's because they've aged meteor in the cinematics and want his in-game model to reflect that, I can't blame a group of players who use that face for not digging it when all they wanted was the stubble. Same with how some male faces have been aged in general.

They've also added a strange grey eyeliner to the eyes. I don't understand why, but it's there. (I've also heard they've added makeup to the faces of some female characters which, frankly, is rude. While it can work for some and I don't fault anyone who likes it, I can see how it could be incredibly annoying for those who can't opt out of it and never wanted it in the first place.)
