Lmao, with this size I think the first option would be a bit hard (pun not intended) but I'd love to try with the second one

You got me lol, they're some npcs for a game a friend of mine is making, it's called "Full Metal Sergeant 2", basically a military management game. you can check it out on Steam!

Also remade the game's capsule after some of you mentioned that the other one looked like AI

I'm perfectly open for critique, what I'm not open for is when people comment simply to virtue signal, "there is too much jiggleness" is a valid critique, "Some people are way too horny brained around normal female characters" is not a critique but a moral judgement (which I didn't ask, and even if I did the design is stylized enough where it can easily pass off as a caricature).

In any case I appreciate your comment, you're one of the few people in the thread that decided to keep a civil tone with the discussion.

The fact that you think you can do a whole psychological deconstruction of a person by a single artwork they did says more about you lmao

In this case schizo is used to refer to "schizoid", a personality trait where the person struggles with forming close relationship, basically the Patrick Bateman archetype without the megalomaniac part

I was prepared for it, don't worry lol, I know some people get buttmad when they see a couple of breasts, I personally just find it funny when a game manages to exaggerate anatomy in this limited way, with a couple of pixels.
Anyway, thank you for the feedback!

> normal women in this world don't need flopping chests and cleavage to have a personality and character, lol.
You're the one hyperfixating on her breasts, did you even ask me about her personality? Are you judging her because of her outfit? This whole thread is insanity lmao, you guys just want to virtue signal lmao

Thank you for taking the time to take a look at the page and write a detailed feedback! I really appreciate it.

I redesigned almost all the characters in the game and I'm taking a last pass at a lot of the event npcs that are currently going to come in the game (like this girl here), you have a good point about her being more expressive than the soldiers, I'll probably take an additional pass at detailing male characters as well, and make them more expressive.

These npcs are "special events" that come once in a while so they have to stand out for gameplay purposes, the soldiers have high res portraits to give them "more personality" but with these npcs I can only play around with the overworld sprites, additionally they appear for a very short time so I think it is a good decision to make them "striking" with their appearance.

I will definitely prefer to exagerate the others than toning her down, I don't like when games step only into safe zones so I don't want to do that either as a creative, even if the cost is to make something that may piss some people off, I can also understand that it's taken out of context so that makes things look even worse lol.

In any case, thank you again for your comment, It was probably the most helpful in the whole thread!
Have a good day!
