Dawntrail character graphics update - opinions, requests and discussion megathread

[Doopliss]

Sorry for another lengthy post, I just kept feeling bothered by this and would like to see it adjusted. The option to add colored eyelashes to ♂ Viera Face 2 feels like it's severely diminished if you pick darker colored hair in comparison to before.

For reference, I used the same apartment and same GPOSE lighting settings as before, the general lighting is just brighter now...

It's a really small detail that's difficult to see and doesn't really change the impression, but it's something I thought was endearing...and, more importantly, it's just a thing that feels like it got worse for no reason.

You can see the smallest hint of color in the 7.0 version if you look really closely, mostly between the upper lashes now; but I vastly preferred the detail being focused on the bottom lashes, and how it was more easily noticeable during close-ups.

Trust me, I already feel ridiculous for feeling bothered enough to want to point even this out! But I'm goin' to continue anyway! I especially felt a little bitter since I noticed the other two ♂ Viera faces that have this Facial Feature option (Face 1 and Face 3) seem to fare fine with dark hair colors.

I'm sorry I can't get closer screenshots of those faces to show what I mean...I don't have other characters available with those faces that I can use in-game to zoom in more.

Anyway, it's even more perplexing to me, because if you change the hair color to a lighter one, it shows up just fine. Like, even the black roots at the inner edges of the eyelashes seem to become shorter with light hair colors...? I'm not sure if I should report this as a bug...

Also, man, the eyelashes in general sure do look worse now. They used to have a sort of fluffiness to them...but now they're more thin and brittle-looking...

On a more general note, I do think this face changed a fair bit overall, too.

I'm actually mostly okay with how it's been updated, like with my ♀ Elezen, but, much like that face, there are still things I'd like to see adjusted to get it closer to its original impression (eyebrows for this one; the corners of the lips; the cupid's bow).

A more important one (to me) that I want to point out, though, is the nose.

This is just, straight up, again, a different shape? The little rabbit nose mark makes it fairly obvious, too... I chose the widest nose option for him (Nose 4) for a reason. Why make it less wide? It just looks like a slightly blown-up version of Nose 1 now.

The tattoo on the nose bridge is also no longer smooth like it was before, even from a distance. Please look over this...
