Fem Miqo eye 3 needs to be more angular still.

I think they mistook people wanting a more angular eye 3 on face 1/2/3 and gave face 4 all of the angles instead.

This patch, they changed face 4 eye 3's polygons on the inside of the upper eyelid to look cartoonishly boxy when viewed from an angle, to the point where the two eyes look mismatched because the outer part of the model retained its old smooth look. I think this is due to them inadvertently thickening that part of the eyelid when trying to make the upper part of the eye more angular when viewed from the front, leading to a bit of a derpy/uncanny side angle.

It looks like an error and I hope it is, because this has led to my miqo getting her pre-DT dead stare back. I can see the original intent/vision when viewing the character from the front, but the side view is where you notice that the eyelid is super thick and distorting the eyelash placement, and therefore the percieved eye shape.



I can't even look at her for too long now because of how derpy she looks, and the smoother eye shape is why I picked eye 3 to begin with. I'm even less of a fan of any of the alternative eye shapes, so I'm kind of just stuck with it until they make changes, if they do. Please roll back face 4 eye 3 and give all of those angles to the other faces' eye 3s instead.
