    Thank you to Rein for the image:



    These same dimples are more prominent in the example image too. Yet this example image was (and still is, judging by Rein's post) celebrated as 'quality'. Similarly, the lower section of the face on the example image seems a very little wider - just as it does in yours. Though this is purely to my own viewpoint and, again, could be lighting or physical feature adjustment or a combination of both.

    The reason something that was approved earlier and celebrated widely by players as being a positive change has now been heavily criticized? Because it has been applied to our own familiar characters. These changes on that less familiar face were easier to view as a whole. On our own characters, these same small changes now more easily picked up as being 'different' and are becoming a huge fixation for many players.
    Honestly I think you were on something with this. I was stoked when they released the possible look on each race, thinking my character would be looking more beautiful.
    Benchmark released and of course I was mad since there are so many things I perceived as wrong. Then I tried to make point through other NPC (this time Hildibrand was put in as part of April's fool, I am male Highlander face #2 user--same as Hildy--so I think it is good idea to see how this face behaves in new environment).

    Which works to my sanity, because after I compared between two Hildies, honestly I just see the new Hildy as the improved detailed version and still able to see him as is.
    Of course I can point many things that I deemed to be different and I don't like, but the distance between this NPC and my feeling is what makes me finally click.

    At the end of the day I am more on accepting the end result if they end up not doing anything, but still it would be nice if they can give more fine tweakings on the demanded changes.

    Edit: adding Hildy picture for reference.
