Who cares if they fucking formed her face out of a box of Cheerois and it only took 5 seconds to do.
It was more "So what if they spent no time, and it was a quick photoshop. What the hell did you expect, and how does the time spent or the method used change any of it at all - the creators created it they way they did, it is what it is - why does it matter."

Oh, well the way you said it made it seem like we were complaining about how she looks or that she looks too human, but I think the way she looks is just fine. And they didnt "create" anything. They took something that already existed and added to it slightly.

Would you [I'm not really directing this at you, just towards the screen] prefer if they airbrushed a real model with those same features, then put those little white motion tracker balls on her, got her to move around and took many pictures of her face, then digitally enhanced it so that in the end it looks exactly the same, but they've only spent more time on it? Would that be better, because they simply didn't "Quickly photoshop a picture", but spent weeks and time getting to the same conclusion?

Yes, I would have preferred that, although time spent on it is irrelevant. They could have took the picture themselves and been done in a few mins instead of using some stock photo they found. Its just lazy half assed work is all, and my pappy always told me "if youre gonna do something, do it right or dont do it all."

I just find most of the internet complaints to be silly complaints. I honestly don't mean that as a knock on anyone here, or even anyone on any site complaining about the game. I just....find it all to be a very silly list of complaints. Like I said before, complaints with the ending are fine, don't like the story - that's cool by me. That's legitimate. But to complain about the method used to model a fake character on, or complaining enough to actually warrant the company to alter the story they made and actually petitioning on it simply because you didn't like it - silly. Silly silly silly.

Ya, petitioning them to change the ending of the game is silly, but with the way it is now its pretty much a big "fuck you, thanks for your money" kind of thing.

And I'm just using this more for my own posting entertainment to post semi-rhetorical posts. I'm more directing my posts at all the google spiders that scan the site than expecting an actual conversation, or reasonable answers to my posts other than "lol, play the game" or "lol, nope" to pop up because they rarely do on the internet these days. I cringe at the thought of the people who can't read more than a paragraph anymore without thinking "Holy fuck this is taking so much time", and will respond in 144 characters or less.

I considered it.
