    7.0 benchmark feedback- seawolf femroe

    Like many others I'm not particularly thrilled about the update. The eyeshadow and brow liner are less bold, and less sharply defined. On live, the chin and nose look more sleek and tapered, while the benchmark is blocky. The larger lips and wide, defined philtrum look out of place and disproportional, and combine with everything else to pull the overall balance toward the lower half of the face, which also draws attention to how the shadows make the neck and chin blend together. The end result is that the eyes look less intense and the whole face looks a bit sleepy.

    I also liked the color blurring in the hair highlights and that goes away with more hair detail. The skin tone feels a bit off but I'm able to mitigate it with tone changes, I'll likely finetune all the colors after DT drops.

    When comparing it in cutscenes, it feels like a very unnecessary sidegrade at best; this is workable and not as badly mangled as others, but I'd never choose it over the status quo.
