Today's the earliest expected date for the Benchmark re-release

Then people would complain that a graphical update to improve things hadn't improved anything. The devs can't really win here. Someone is going to be upset about something whichever way they go. They acknowledged that there may be differences and that's why they're giving a free fantasia in case there are tweaks that need to be made.

I agree with you both; they should still take feedback but artists are not perfect, they're following an art direction with improved engine specifications. Can't expect characters made in Elden Ring to look exactly the same as those in Dark Souls III as the specificatioins has changed, for example.

Again, Square enix needs to really look into adding sliders. I would expect no sliders in character creation if we were in 2012 or something, not now.
