    wide-open eyes (benchmark) vs. half-opened/suspended eyelids (current)

    Didn't notice this thread either! Reposting from another thread since this one seems oriented towards feedback:

    The benchmark changed the shape of my character's eyes by removing the dark/heavier upper eyelids and it makes her look shell-shocked. It's a little upsetting because I recall Yoshi-p mentioning that he wanted to move away from characters having "empty dead-eyed" stares and to me it seems like some fundamental eye shape change has inadvertently caused what he was wanting to avoid. I rather enjoyed that my character held a kind of "aloof" or "bemused" expression that made it seem like she was always quietly thinking to herself.

    I have the benchmark photo (left), an edit I drew the heavier eyelids onto (right), and the original/before (center). I feel silly because it's just a game I don't usually care to make a fuss over or be a nuisance about.



    I'd like it if the update could retain the original characteristic of her eyes and appreciate the hard work of the developers.
