Character graphical changes are NOT in an acceptable state, please make it optional

[LlymlaenGreene]

I mean I'm seeing far more people liking the updates than disliking them, I like the new details and how I can't count the amount of polygons on my character's nose anymore.

Why are you talking so confidently? Did you vote or count every vote? I can't tell you how many of those and those, but I see a lot of people who are happy and a lot of people who are not happy. If most people were happy with the changes, then there would not be a 100-page topic on everyone's favorite Japanese forum, where people literally draw their old characters in a day.

If most of them were pretty good, then there wouldn't be a 100-page topic on everyone's favorite Japanese forum where people literally draw their old characters for nothing :3

They're just here to bait, take this post for example, where they post the dawntrail benchmark twice with some unfunny captions

Oh, thank you very clearly, this is another person who rejoices in other people's failures. Well, there are some in this community, how good it is that they are a minority. And unlike her calculations, I know what I'm talking about :3

People are far less likely to post when they're happy about something and far more likely to post when there is something they're not happy with. Understandably, the people most active in forums at the moment are those who are unhappy with the changes, wanting to express their disappointment. Some who are happy with the changes might make the effort to come and post their support but, aside from doing is as part of a thank you to the development team or to maybe highlight something they aren't quite 100% about, they have little need to as they are overall happy with the changes.

I absolutely agree, it always is, but you also take into account that most of the players did not launch benchmark at all and they do not sit on forums and so on and just play and enjoy
Now imagine how surprised they will be at the start * if everything stays as it is now* when they enter the game and see the new characters? someone will like it, someone will not, and again there will be the same topics. And someone will have to sit in line just to find out that they have a new character now, and they will have to do relogin to use the fanta, then relogin to undress * I do not know in what order, but I have heard that it is tedious to do this several times.
And then they'll be disappointed, because with the courtesy of fanta, they still won't get who they've been playing with for so many years.

Perfectly plausible, yes. There will be some who will have skipped the benchmark or have commitments in their day-to-day lives which has meant they may be a little out of the loop as to the changes in-game. And yes, while some of these currently unaware players will have a pleasant surprise when they log in and be very happy with the changes, it is inevitable that there will be some who will log in and be less pleased with what changes they see. But the situation remains the same as what we are in currently, with some liking the changes and others not. Forgive me, but I don't quite see what this adds to the discussion?

That person tried to show a picture of herself emoting and a still picture than called it different and ugly. She has nothing to add truthfully,just yapping.

but I have something to tell you. Llymlaen ran up to her and started yapping at Nyxs, but Nyxs ran away without knowing that Llymlaen wanted to tell her that she only wished her well.

But seriously, I have some words that I want to say and for this I will need to use LB3 *translator* :3

It's more of an offtop (isn't that what they call things off-topic?), so you don't have to read it

Now, when I try not to speak with emotions, I see that I was really very harsh, sometimes impolite and everything else. The more I talk here, the more salty I get, picking on every word, but I don't want to be like that lol.
I kind of understand why you're writing this message about me, because when I look at some of my messages, I really look like a hysterical teenager. To be honest, I have no experience in disputes, (forum sprout) because I usually try to avoid any disputes, because this is not my strong point (let alone Internet disputes, where venerable debaters sit who have been doing this for years). In that message, I even apologized in advance for my excessive emotionality, because I know that many, if not all, will find it unpleasant to read this. Therefore, I take back my words about the monster freak and other nasty things that I said. After all, this is really disrespectful neither to you (all the people who read the forum), nor to the developers. I imagine that artists are trying, doing their job, and some noname (Me) calls their work ugliness. It's really not serious. Yes, something that was in a rush of emotion is not an excuse, and therefore I apologize to everyone and to the developers (unless of course one of them actually reads this, as someone said earlier in this topic) who did not like it or seems impolite and other epithets. If anyone cares about it at all, of course. I think I can accept that I'm wrong, that's why I'm writing this.

But I also continue to believe that in its current form, this is not what most will be satisfied with, I'm talking about the appearance of my character and about the appearance of other characters. Therefore, I hope, like many here who want changes, that the developers will come to the right decision, which everyone will be happy with, and those wonderful people who want changes, and those wonderful people who are satisfied with everything at the moment!
