My two cents into a very well documented issue

Benchmark CC:


Current in-game CC:


Benchmark Test (2K, Maximum):


Ingame Gpose (2K Maximum):


Now clearly the lightning is better in the Benchmark, incredibly better, but my boy just feels so...round and smooth? Like not even the textures (that's a different topic I am not at all smart enough to talk about) but he's lost his jaw and neck and there's no shadows or anything

Eyebrows are noticably thinner and lighter despite being the pure black hair

The splotches on his hair (shows up more in the Gridanian Inn image) which didn't exist in current build

Lips are much more cartoon-y feeling

Eyelashes are much thinner or less noticeable

The eyeliner "tattoo" looks a lot less clean compared to the current model

The nose/jaw changes are bad, you can see it just straight up isn't the same nose or jaw models anymore

The beauty mark issue is already well talked about but it's really shows the lack of attention to detail Viera seem to have gotten as the "newest" non-DT models


I'm hopeful in CBU3 making some adjustments/fixes by release, but I'm just a little disappointed in my boy being changed so much even if it's a WIP! I really love Male Viera and I don't want to have to remake or redesign him!
