    The one thing that I would adjust is to lighten up the eyes. A lot. The top half of them is currently so dark that in many cases it blends in with the eyelashes, creating a very half-lidded look that makes characters look a lot meaner and angrier than they should.

    Removing the fixed catch-lights is an intriguing choice. Eyes are generally very moist, so when you don't have any kind of reflection (except at extreme angles, as is the current case in the CC), they look flat and dead. I'm curious if their general adjustments with reflections might have made the eyes TOO bright, so they nerfed them to avoid constant shoujo eyes (essentially mirroring my problem with the skin)? It's hard to say without being in the development 'room'. I do hope they can address it.

    This too, for sure. Even in better lighting outside of the character creator, so much of the iris is lost to darkness, even with vibrantly colored eyes. If you have dark colored irises? Black voids. Even outside of CC.
