[Dawntrail Benchmark] Character bodies are the same as before

[Aco505]

There's plenty of talk and posts about how the graphical update has affected the faces, eyes, lips, hair or skin of our characters.

One thing I haven't seen mentioned much is that their bodies are practically the same.

Fingers and toes seem to have been improved and nails are more obvious now. Yoshi-P did say in the recent PPL that they tried to increase the number of polygons as much as they could, although I personally think they should strive to make them look as good as they should be.

However, the rest of the body hasn't changed. Shadows might be improved to better reflect the different elements but overall it's all the same.

The way muscles like the biceps or pectorals look, the veins in the arms and legs for male characters (we do have those), the shape of areas such as the collarbone, the navel, the nipples for males... it all still looks like the old version.

In fact, you can still see the polygon-esque shapes on the waists and sides of the lower part of the chest on male characters (see picture below). These have not been improved at all.



I really hope that, since the graphical update is not finished and done in stages, our bodies will be part of it and become improved and more defined graphics wise.

Honestly, there's not been much information on this, since most of the panels and PPLs on the graphical update have been focused on the face and other elements.

Are you satisfied with the way our bodies currently look? Are there specific elements you'd like enhanced or added?
