Dawntrail character graphics update - opinions, requests and discussion megathread

[IvyNefalstra]

Her neutral expression now has very deep corners of the mouth, as if pouting, but too feminin and looking concerned and sad

At certain angle you can see a very deep ridge around her eyes, making her looking VERY old and tired


Compare with screenshot before (she really looked so freaking cool and determined without those mouth corners and extra feminin features...



I really don't want to log in anymore until this is fixed T T

This face had these ridges (tear troughs) before Dawntrail. In Dawntrail, they are visible in a greater variety of lighting conditions, but they are not new to this face. If you zoom in very close, you can even see the green light catching on the one on the far side of her face, in one of your own pre-Dawntrail screenshots:

I am very thankful that these particular features were left intact, and I don’t want to lose them. To me, they’re beautiful, and an important part of my character’s face. Or, to put it more bluntly, they’re one of the few remaining things that help this face look like it could belong on a person, instead of an uncanny photoshop-creature. The tear troughs may look odd on occasion, depending on facial expression, angle, and lighting conditions, but the same holds true for every facial feature.
