I really am at a loss trying to decipher the reviewers complaints with the character designs. They're using the same 'stock-standard' anime style design to appeal to the sensibilities of the target audience as almost every other JRPG. Why has this just now been something to criticize for being 'generic'? Were they to whack on the 'cheap trick' cel-shader textures, the character designs would all of a sudden be praised for their beautiful art.

It does seem like ANYTHING cell-shaded is considered a work of art just because it's cell-shaded.

You're the first person I've seen to point that out.

 

 

The characters look like their made of porcelain. We all prefer to look at handsome/cute people with good skin, but when it's that perfect they don't look human, and I mean the people that are supposed to be human in the game.
