    No, they basically said the proper lighting (which was missing in the benchmark) will fix most issues. They did show examples, on Miquo'te, and the improvement is noticeable.

    And then they talked about addressing feedback on Miquote and Lalafell teeth.

    Highlanders aren't important.

    I had the same thought after the previous live letter and felt a little annoyed for you all. But after giving it some more thought, I think it's mostly a case of restoring what was previously there (the fangs) vs. adding something new (highlander eyebrows).
    It is unfortunate because there are many races with issues and complaints, but I guess they chose to go with the easy wins to pacify the loudest complaints, and I suppose that's fair enough.

    Now, hopefully restoring what was there previously does actually include fixing the eyebrow face paint as well! But there should still be the option to have actual eyebrows. People may want to use the face paint option for an actual face paint that isn't faux eyebrows, and I can't imagine the eyebrow face paint working particularly well in anything other than dark colors.

    The new benchmark should be out soon, and while I don't necessarily expect them to have added eyebrows, I do hope there are at least fixes and improvements for the other issues mentioned in this thread.
