Keeper fangs nerfed in the update

[Joltik]

The new update about the benchmark only mentioned bugs and textures, so doubt that they'll address keeper fangs in that. Still praying they'll acknowledge us and reshape the fangs

D.An issue with uncorrected scaling for the mouth of certain playable races.

It could be part of this.

keepers will not be silenced! You have my voice!

Look how they massacred my boy.



Please Square Enix, make our fangs as sharp as they were before! I love my moonboy's fangs.

I'm hoping, but I think they're more talking about how the expressions around the mouth were super borked.

The reduced fangs look extremely artistic and purposeful so I don't think it's covered by anything they said in the update.

I'm certainly hoping I'm wrong though!! This is one time I'd definitely be happy to be in the wrong.

We will also continue to make adjustments which will incorporate as much of your feedback as possible into the revision of the benchmark, as well as the release version of Dawntrail.

Here's hopin'.

It would be nice if the update actually said which races rather than just "certain playable races" because now we don't know if we can rest now, or we have to keep shouting

"An issue with unimplemented high-resolution textures" could also be moon cat teeth but a point of clarification would be nice.

I took it as them not wanting to commit to a stated list of races just in case they find something else that went wrong in an unmentioned race during their next pass, all the while the forums will continue to be freaking out because we can clock things like that faster than they can.

And the fang issue isn't a texture problem, so I doubt it's that. I assume if they agree with us that it's a problem, it'll be tied to the "mouth scaling issues" when they fix the various lip issues and lala teeth scaling.

I mean the statement was more of a damage control PR 'forums on fire' statement meant to calm things down abit while mentioning sweeping/general issues without elaborating further. If they specify things I think it might make the situation worse...

That's just my personal cynical outlook on it that could very much be false and I hope it is! We don't really know the specifics of what will be changed, if our feedback is integrated or dismissed. Maybe they didn't think the CC would be so poorly recieved or that people would actual notice the fang nerfs- I personally didn't notice because I didn't try the emotes in CC.

I mostly noticed myself because I'm always on the lookout for them because it always makes me happy when I see them in a cutscene. When I didn't notice them in the benchmark cutscenes when her mouth was open, I initially thought 'oh maybe I didn't notice them for some reason'. That's when I looked more closely in the CC with emotes and noticed that no, I wasn't just imagining they were smaller.

With the current live game (not the benchmark) its not uncommon for me to just snap pics in cutscenes when I see her fangs, so I want to believe we'll still have them be noticeable in 7.0 ;;w;;
