Thread: Graphics Update 7.1 Feedback - Female Highlander Face 1

I join the above. I hope the devs will finally remember that there is more than just miqo'tes in their game.

Joining here with this:



It's just sad. It could have been adjusted with mapping, or with actual texture work.
It also made me change the race as I don't have the patience to wait to get back any semblance of my previous character.

I wanted something like this:

And this was done by 2 hrs of texture editing of the 7.0 textures...

I would actually LOVE if the shape 3 eyes were to be changed to be just like that! The edited version looks like what the eyes SHOULD look like.

ngl, in both of the examples posted - 7.1 looks better than 7.0 and 7.0 looked better than 6.58.

Y'all are literally impossible to please. They can't upgrade something without changing it at all.

That's just, like, your opinion, man.

We have played these characters for years in many cases. You may think it is an improvement, but if the people actually playing the races don't think so, why do you think this comment is at all helpful?

As someone who thought my character "drastically changed" from her EW/Pre-DT version. But at the same time understood that it does indeed look better, if not 100% the same. I can see where both of you are coming from.

First off, one can't just disregard how someone who spent years playing with the same character is bothered by how different their character looks in their eyes. The years spent would give someone the ability to differentiate even the most seemingly minute difference in detail on their character. A detail that would likely not be seen from an outsider's perspective. For example, i thought female Au ra didn't change as drastically as female Hyurs did. I actually thought they just looked overall better. But then i saw post of female Au ra players stating that their character looks very different from their previous iteration. I personally didn't see it (as clearly that is), since i never played as a female Au ra. But i'm not disregarding their concerns, as i don't have the same familiarity as they do.

On the other hand, Bigcheez does still have a point. The character models where most complaints were coming from are about a decade old. Bumping those older models up from 2010/2013 standards into todays will inevitably result in some changes. Whether those changes are for the better or not may depend on individual perspective. And honestly, the fact that it seems the same from an outsiders perspective (and without thorough scrutiny) means that they seem to have at least succeeded in trying to preserve the old look of most of the character models. Said outsider perspective i also do not dismiss outright. As they often tend to focus on what improved rather than what changed, if one gets my meaning.

Also, i feel like the age of these models have something to do with the little to no complaints from Viera and Hrothgar players. Since they are relatively newer.

Anyway, since we're talking about the 7.1 changes.

Left is 7.0, right is 7.1 for both images.





Seems YoshiP gave my character a lip reduction surgery. Which i personally don't mind since it looks closer to my character's pre-DT iteration. Besides that, i honestly can't tell what else was changed.

I've waited for a comment like this. And it's not disappoint. Missed this classic 'don't you dare to criticize, just shut up and eat what the slacking dev team gave you' nonsense I had back in my WoW days.
