[Character Graphics Update]: Second Benchmark Worries

[HawkeScream]

They should revert or adjust changes if existing au ra players are unhappy. My main is this hyur and a face 3 male viera. Based on current broken benchmark preview, I would be overjoyed if they reverted everything they did to them, because I like the characters I play *right now.* I'm very cautiously hopeful that benchmark 2.0 adjustments will be more in line with them stating they are trying to make "your character but better." Preserving existing characters was the goal, and that's what they should stick to. Adding options would be the only way to keep everyone happy, which would be great! Never gonna complain about more options. But like xirune already said, retaining current character appearance should be more important.

see that's the problem though. I also play a face 3 male viera (and a face 1), and I very much love the changes. If they reverted them I would be extremely unhappy.

I also think adjusting the lighting like they say they are doing will help a lot of people see that the 'differences' they are seeing, aren't actually there.

Unless you are skinning both models and comparing the textures and triangles you don't get to tell me that what I'm seeing doesn't exist.

I didn't specifically say YOU. I said 'a lot of people'.

It's a graphical update. Of course some things were going to change. There are some actually errors that need to be fixed, sure. But things were not going to look the same when it was being updated. It was kinnnda the point for it NOT to.

The lighting changes will change the shape and size of my characters lips and revert her eyebrow color from blonde to black again? Man, it's crazy what the devs can do with just lighting these days.

Could you show example pictures of what you like and would be upset if they changed on face 3? SE cannot take your feedback into account with no examples or specifics. If this means so much to you, surely you can provide this.

But the "differences" aren't actually there? Which is it?

To the topic:

On every level, priority should be given to preserving characters. If you like the new stuff, that's cool, but the promise from SE was to change as little as possible, meaning between two choices the correct is the one that resembles what was before.

Like the guy above, the people who "like" the changes almost never provide any accurate feedback. "I like it" is vague and tells us nothing. What do you like? Please specify, maybe then a true compromise can be found. "Address nothing" is NOT a compromise.
