After some accommodation about the new models, and some in-game change through the char creator, i really love my new middie... But there are still some important points of concern for me.

First being... The blemishes.

The blemishes under the eyes looks like freckles, and i really dislike it, as well, these blemishes are also on the chin, and if you look closely, it's very bad looking.

Second, the lower lip.

The lower lip is noticeably bigger / puffier on the "After" than on the "Before", i don't like that, my midlander used to have tighter lips and this was part of her initial design, now, the type 1 lips ( the one she use ) is completely off from that feeling she had previously, and the type 3 ( i think ) which is the tighter lips doesn't suit me because these are TOO tight.

Third, the roundness of the jaw on the new model.

It might be me, but it seems apparent to me that the jaw toward the ears has become a bit rounder, and the overall upper face feels larger on the new models, and while this isn't as big of an issue to me as the lips and blemishes are, it still took away a bit of that more formal / sharp look she had prior, which i would've loved to keep going. I would prefer it more thin like she used to be basically, but maybe that's just me.

Fourth, the eye placement.

It's not a huge deal but, on the new model, the eyes are a little bit farther away from the nose ridge than they used to be, at least it feels that way, which give her a bit of an "off" looking gaze ? Or maybe it's rather the iris that is a bit tinier than it used to be ? or it's placement in the white of the eye ? I don't know for sure, she looks a little off.

Fifth, the eye highlights.

Been said a lot i think, but the highlights looks off on those new models, the eyes don't appear as lively as they used to be and in certain instances are SOULLESS, but that's not too much of a case on my char, just saying that she still has less life in her eyes that she used to.

Sixth, makeup color.

We can distinctively see that the eye darkener ( makeup ) on the After is one or two tint of dark lighter than the one on Before, it's not that bad looking but i would like to be able to have it as dark as it used to.

Seventh, eyebrows.

I don't know why but the type 1 eyebrow from middie is now much less dark ( same goes for the hairs btw ) and this cause them to feel very different from their previous iteration, thankfully, i could correct this by swapping eyebrow to keep her initial "formal" look.

Here, i think that sums up my problems.

Overall i like the new models, she looks cute... But she used to look more on the "cold beauty" side, with a more strict / formal look, and it didn't loose itself altogether in this new update but a bit of it is gone and i hope to get it back, ESPECIALLY, the LIPS and the EYE HIGHLIGHTS, if anything.

Edit: The lack of a blueish skin tone is noticable. And it is a good thing for me. Because i did not like it.

Ah you would have to copy the image address to show it so it would be this and it would show up. It took me a couple tries before also there is also a picture box you click on to paste said link giving it the [IMG] on both sides.

The poster said they weren't sure, where are you getting the 'massive downgrade" from?

These people are living in their own reality. They see whatever they want to see.
