Justin11 Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Their are some point I'll resign my pro in a game it will become too weird in appearance, and I'll try to re-edit it to look like it's previous appearance, and it wouldn't go back to the previous look, proving too difficult. To be candid, such kind of situation frustrates me a lot, making me not to go deeper again designing my character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m76 Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 (edited) Redesigning characters sends the message that there was something wrong with them. Which is quite hurtful to those who already come to like them and identified with the character as they were. So unless we are talking about a complete reboot of a series redesigns are a big red flag to me. As for locations, that's an entirely another thing, with technical advancements locations can be made bigger and more detailed, which necessitates some degree of redesign. The important bit is that the location keeps its atmosphere and general vibe. Edited December 24, 2021 by m76 Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 If I'm the one that's doing the redesigning, then I wouldn't be too angry about it since I have the capacity to create exactly what I want. Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly my point. Although there are some games that doesn't even allow you to customize the game characters at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm always all in for games that allows you to customize your own characters the way that you want them to be. Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boblee Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 It's actually fun when you are allowed the flexibility of twisting your characters in games the way that you see fit. Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 I might not really be interested in changing locations from how they look but characters will definitely be touched for me if it's made possible to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane99 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Location redesign is fine in my opinion. And I understand character design in some regards. It's fine to have a redesign to match current graphics, but we shouldn't move too far off from the look of a character. It should still make sense.

If it's done in a way that it doesn't go too far from the reality of what the game really presented, then it's quite a bit good from the way I see it.

Too much of everything is bad, as it goes way beyond where it's supposed to and the real detail would be chalked off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, just like characters customization, when you take it too far, you might not even recognize the character any more. Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 When it comes to my character's customization, I always make sure to stay within the limit where I can still appreciate the character initial set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
