Dawntrail character graphics update - opinions, requests and discussion megathread

[Visthra]

Hey sorry to reply to this a second but I'm literally just now realizing: is the new philtrum and cupid's bow not aligned correctly with the nose in the update? I know human faces are inherently asymmetrical, so I'm not sure if this could be an angle thing or lighting thing or something else? Is that possible here...?

I drew a quick, shitty line in MS Paint through the center of the cupid's bow because I couldn't be bothered to open CSP anymore, but I hope this shows what I'm seeing?


EDIT: God maybe it is just a trick of the lighting now that I look again. I really can't tell. I keep looking at the line on the second image and not being certain it's the center, since the top of the lips are, ironically, more blurry in the new version...

Sorry but anyone who says these new philtrums are normal are just objectively incorrect. I’ve never seen a single person in real life have the wide-ass unnatural philtrums we have in DT. It looks completely insane, and I don’t know why more people aren’t talking about it.

And that’s not to mention the Pizza Hut logo upper lip some people have. If you stop and really think about some of these (completely unnecessary) changes, you realize how weird this entire situation with the graphics rollout is. The work was outsourced, that’s the only logical explanation.

My mother doesn't have a defined philtrum...alot of chars had 'subtle' philtrums, some I think barely any, but now philtrums are cranked to 11, if you didn't have it, now you do. Wide philtrum? Nah squished pronounced one.

This is an entirely different mouth shape...

When you say wide, do you mean deep? The wider philtrum, the picture on the left, is the old graphics and is the feature that I want restored alongside the wider cupid's bow.
