DT releases in TWO MONTHS - they aren't going to overhaul the graphics update now.

[MAJRIS]

Its because you all are posting it to general threads that NOBODY READS.

You should make a duplicate of each new graphic issue in bug forums so that human being will see it.

this update is not WIP but release candidate. You either start reporting it as bug with small chances of getting fixed/updated or will will be told "sheesh you players are never happy" until 2036 for next closest visual update.

So if i redo a post there explaining how the face is wrong and providing screenshots and edit to show what can be improved, the post will be read?
My post in general received many reactions of people agreeing the new face is off, but one of the moderator tagged it as a "crying post" where there is in fact a lot of feedbacks that can help the dev updating and give back the vibe it use to have

I just hope it won't lead be to a ban or something, thank you for your input

I think it's good that you put attachments with pictures to prove your point.
I think forum tags are available to people so it's most likely someone else doing some mischief with thread tags.

If you believe the change features something not intended, I think its justified to post it also in bug forum and wait for reply. They usually move it, but at least it forces a real breathing human to react and reply on your post.

I'll prepare a mega post then, thank you very much ♥

Our character's appearance is something we see often playing through the MSQ, it is completely justified for people to react and feel the way they do and hope for changes or delays. I understand if your character isn't super important to you or if you got the better end of the stick, but try to understand that other people are not in the same boat.

Nobody's asking them to overhaul the entire graphics update lmao. Peoples issues here are far smaller in scope.

[Fuyume]

Yeah, they give us a fantasia but what if the change is race wide? Do we just throw the character we've grown to know and love away and make a new character because Square decided having a more angular fem au ra face actually wasn't good after all (as an example)? I've had my character the way she is right now for eight years, unchanged. Now she looks soft and cutesyfied, like all the other fem au ra faces, when I built her to not be mega cutesy. Am I supposed to just throw away an almost decade old character, or should I come give feedback like they asked for?

[Jeeqbit]

Exactly what the OP said. Well said.

It's understandable after 10 years with the same graphical style, changes are going to be alarming and jarring, and not everyone is going to be happy.

Change is a part of life. Humans don't like change but it helps to accept, and embrace it. Not being able to adapt to change is why we still do ancient traditions from centuries ago for the sake of it. At a certain point, we just need to look at the technology we have now and move forward.

But they aren't going to suddenly in the next TWO months rework everything based on forum complaints.

Although there is a chance they could change something minor before or after it, I think it's unlikely it would happen before release just because the benchmark is meant to allow us to create a character ahead of release.

flat-out delay Dawntrail to redo it and that is NOT happening.

No chance.

You're going to get your fantasia

This fantasia was in anticipation of the reaction as well. So you can find a new look for a new decade if needed.

I don't think anyone(or very few) is expecting them to overhaul the graphic update completely. Most people just have a very criticisms which are completely fair on a lot of cases.

Expressing our opinions on the forum is literally how the dev team knows how we feel. It's how they knew a lot of people didn't like how shiny au ra horns were in a previous show of the new graphics and most likely how they came to be aware of how dark skin looks bad in a lot of lighting in the game.

We shouldn't be putting anyone down for expressing their opinions.

I have never once felt like my feedback has been taken in to account in any capacity for this game as a whole, I just post because I'm bored.
