I really struggle to understand this whole thing and it still feels like stepping into the twilight zone when coming to these threads. I have been recently trying to play Dragon age inquisition and one of the most off-putting things i have been trying to overlook are the character faces. They all look hideous. Yeah, they all have these shape, color and shine options but they look creepy and unatural to me, because they are trying to mimic realistic faces.
Xenoblade X doesnt waste time with that and gives us anime style faces that are way easier to look at. Maybe its because not everyone ever watched anime or ever played RPG's wich are stylised around it. It makes no sense to me. If, people said they dont have all the details a human face has, i can understand, but when people say they look bad, even in the case of cross having the evil eyes, i just cant agree or understand. They definitly do not look like the aberrations i see on dragon age, a game where this was never brought up as an issue.

Really now? That's a first.

That looks good to you? Looks incredibly fake to me. Whats with all the gloss? Despite that, it isnt one of the default characters and wait until he starts talking. The hair clipping, the weird beard texture. In the back you have an aberration. Look at that dead stare.
Thats the thing... realistic is incredibly difficult to pull off. The game that has the closest is probably LA Noir. These efforts are cringe worthy to me. Xenoblade X doesnt try that. It takes on its own art direction based on anime.
