So, the Runscape EOC beta character models I showed off earlier? They are in the main game now.
HAHAHAHA
The player base's reaction, predictably, has been negative. Well, not the majority of the player base, it is often that the squeaky wheels are tho only ones heard. So far I have seen cries of ANOREXIC! WEIGHTLIFTER! SLUT! MEAN BITCH! FATTY! SEXFAEC! BLOWUP DOLL! APE! leveled at the new female model. The male model, on the other hand, just gets called ugly. *sigh*
I feel that if the agape mouths on the models were closed, many complaints would vanish. I personally like the new character models, but then again I don't mind muscle (and come on, these are adventurers, not gaunt fashion models!), in fact, I prefer it. The anorexic cries come from players who have fooled around with certain midriff baring costumes, apparently. I also don't mind round faces. That may be the "AWWW WOOKIT DAH CUTE BABY!" circuits in my brain tripping on the female model's rounder face and big eyes (the magic of eye makeup! wait, eye makeup?) or it might be that I really don't mind.
Edit: Oof, now I see the skinny. The arms look good in profile but head on they look emaciated. Eep. The legs are a bit that way too.
Then again looking at it more closely, it isn't the whole thing, its a mishmash of the old and the new that got imported with the old animations. What the hell?
