I'm happy with all the graphical updates they have showcased so far. But changing the design of the characters isn't what they promised.

Few examples of design changes:
- Dilated pupils on F Au Ra.
- Smaller pupils on Veena Viera.
- Fuller lips all across the board.
- Mid Hyur beards being less visible.
- Scars look like a hair strand.
- Removed static eye highlights.

These does not look like incidents or byproducts of the graphic updates. It looks like a person or a team with full conscious decided to change the design in the process of reworking the character 3D models.
Yoshi-P himself stated that they will try to make the characters as close as possible with current state, which they clearly failed to do so on the benchmark build. A free fantasia is honestly isn't even worth a consolation prize for people who have grown attached to their characters and only found their characters to be unrecognizable no matter how much they tinkered with the options. No free fantasia can fix that and nothing can justify compromising on promises they broke themselves.

The devs spent too much time paying attention to environments while neglecting on the characters.
