A Land Far Away

Is it just my jaded perception, or did the heads all turn even moar uglay?

No I thought the same thing , "god these people in this world are ugly, I see enough of that everyday in the mirror"

recognises that charisma is often a dump stat and makes the game options match this

Zomg lifesaver, though others will still see the uglified versions. OH NOHES.

They need to make this default with ALFA.

Motb faces are just too fugly.

I would tend to agree, but alas, mandating overrides is not how we do policy around here (with good reason, actually ).

At least, I'll see about getting a visible sticky though!

Ugly cartoon faces may chill some of the more adult situations that the playerbase craves. Good or bad?

Considering you need overrides to even show a bare ankle, faces are the least of the "adult" problems.

Am I the only one who doesn't see much difference? Never heard complaints about the MotB heads until this thread popped up. If it's a universal opinion, we could put them into the haks, I expect. But presumably at least some people actually think the MotB "improvements" were improvements?

Anyone? Bueller?

I never noticed the difference until this thread started, so you're not the only one.

Sheesh, it jumped right out at me. First I thought "did I change my gfx settings? This looks uglified.", but then, no, it really was victim to uglification .

*hands out glasses*

Sounds like someone hasn't logged onto TSM and tried the tinting lever yet. I managed to give players the option of going back to a NWN1-style look.

After looking at the screenshots, I don't see any visible difference in the structures of the faces. It seems the only "uglification" that the devs did was to tint some skin colors and add a few spots of shadows usually around the nose and mouth.

Not much difference, really. In fact, I think many of them look -better- this way.

It's not only tinting and colours, some shapes are adjusted, and the like.

In any case, with an override it's up to everyone, though I'm not really a friend of things showing up differently to different people. Guess we don't have an option to pick which head is shown, or could we just slap them in /additionally/?

Well, it's still not a major problem, and cosmetics should take backseat to the rest... but blazes, some of these are fugly ;o.
