Here is the problem a lot of you seem to have. You keep asking us (the people that like the changes) to show empathy while you people show us zero and you keep bringing up the same argument of saying "yoshi said they'll keep the overall feel". SE honestly put themself in this situation because they give us not one but two benchmarks with the new characters and let us play with it for hours basically dangling a carrot in our faces saying "this is what you're going to get". Now they keep changing that said carrot so its all old and wrinkling and similar to 2.x likeness.
But my main problem overall is them saying they're going keep changing stuff through out 7.x its not clear if it means actual adjustments or bug fixes because he didn't say but that's a really really dumb thing to do. Because this could install false hope for getting stuff changed/ and install fear of making things worse.
SE needs to learn they can't please everybody, everybody wants something different. The fact they keep trying to please everybody is just going to end up with them not pleasing anybody. I guarantee you if they keep adjusting characters its going to look worse and worse due to varied feedback.
for example.
Face 3 au ra didn't really have very noticeable tear bags in the 1.0 benchmark.
Since everybody was complaining the maps changes and now she has very noticeable tear bags and now people don't like that but at the same time; It made people that do like that they show.
Now SE is going to change it again and then have new people complaining they liked the tear bags. Oh well...guess we'll see what happens overtime.
couple of posts above you someone is asking for a full on reversion of elezen....don't get me wrong. I've seen some of you ask for more options but not everybody is and from how the devs explain. It sounds like they can't add more because their servers can't take it so they have no choice but to just force changes on everybody.
In the end. Everybody is being selfish, everybody is a "F you, got mine" Nobody really cares if you don't get what you want, everybody only wants what they want and you all need to stop pretending you care what others want.
