Yay, We're Pretty Again!

OMG Praise the lord we have Skin tone again! The first time they showed footage of ARR, despite knowing it was unfinished, I was so worried we would be getting a Dramticly Different Character Art Style.

Alpha:


Beta:


So happy to see things have gotten back to normal and that we didn't have to sacrifice High Quality Character Models for performance enhancements.

It was just people freaking out over something that was still IN DEVELOPMENT!

People were freaking out because it was stated by SE they've toned graphics down in order to make playability better, which means when people were freaking out they were rightfully so because to those who ran 1.0 past SNES mode immediately seen a difference even from the 1.0 alpha graphical style.

It was still an overreaction to something they also stated was incomplete. I do recall them commenting about this video being older footage, they still hadn't added in textures or shadows. But that didn't and still doesn't stop people from hearing what they want to hear and then making a mountain out of a mole hill. GRASS! lol


EDIT: Looks like we have some people suffering from Beta Fever in here. This PSA is just the thing for you!

Which is exactly what's going to happen in Beta...

It seems like no one gets that no matter how much they try to get that point across.

To be fair, they might not have been "freaking out" though, they might just have seen something and then expressed a concern about what they saw. Which is probably more productive and constructive than sitting on their hands and just doing nothing and hoping for the best.

No, people are just freaking out. Plain and simple.

Pretty sure freaking out means something different than people simply commenting on stuff they observe. Besides, most people were dealt a lesson on giving SE the benefit of the doubt with version 1.0, so they prefer to be pessimistic, given the track record.
