Updated benchmark

[vekkro]

I've noticed a couple of quirks on my female highlander. Face 2's eyebrows seemed to have gotten 50% brighter and almost match the skin color now. Looks like the angle is softer too.

Not too worried about skin color because that can be adjusted since it seems it got a bit paler. But my eyebrows almost disappearing is a tad annoying lol. I wish they would make them like the other fem highlander faces and just make it match exactly the hair color instead of this weird greyish blonde that blends in with the skin

I know I'm a bit late but wanted to add my thoughts.

First off, I wanted to thank the devs for all the feedback they've incorporated so far. My character looks so much more like herself in the new benchmark!
(Face 4, eyes 4, eyebrows 3, nose 1, mouth 2)



That being said, I do think it's still worth mentioning that there remain some significant differences in her that don't stay true to her original design. The biggest issue is the size of the lips. Overall, the lips are still too big. The lower lip remains weirdly thickened, giving her mouth a distinctly different shape:



As I hope can be seen, this feature stands out explicitly when the characters are compared side by side. Compared to the original (left), the lips of the benchmark character (right) look swollen:



I have to reiterate that I'm so thankful for the improvements that have been made. However, this still feels like a 'dollified' version of my character. The sharpness of the original face remains lost (largely because of the relaxation of her eyebrows in combination with the puffy lips), so it still feels like botox has been forced on her, even if she's not been subjected to as much botox as in benchmark 1. The determined mood of the original face isn't there, which I am going to miss if this is the end result.

I use the same mouth type as your character and after comparing the changes with what we have at the moment, it looks like the shading under the lower lip that is present in the current game got incorporated/absorbed into that lip somehow as a part of it and made it bigger... It's so strange

They did something similar to 3 as well, maybe not as drastic as 2, but 3 is suffering as well. They also changed the curvature in the lower lip in both (maybe all?) which just confuses me since it changes the look and feel of the character so much.
