If they decide to change back to the old models, I'm totally fine with that too, though I also wouldn't mind them keeping these. I'm looking forward to improvements and seeing how it goes. (I'm sorry if my choice of words seems harsher than intented).Įspecially for characters like Weiss, this new style makes them look more. I personally feel this is an interesting direction the game is taking, and it feels like it's finally becoming something more. In motion they look totally fine, it's just that stills can make it creepy. Again, kinks to work out, it's the first time they showed these models. I have many say they think this 'Doll'- look is creepy, but I disagree to a certain degree. ), but We gotta wait and see how it turns out. Sure there's issues here and there (with them looking rather clay-esque but I can see that improve in the future. (Actually, in fact, comparing the polygons of the Game Models and actual MMD models, both of them use the same kind of Mesh (triangular) which actually should be avoided for most animation things) I understand that's the style the show is in, but seeing as how RWBY Chibi is going for a similar style makes me think that this is the direction the show might actually go. Whilst I enjoyed the 'Glow' the old Models had, it felt too much like ripped off MMD Models.
TL DR: I personally really like the aesthetic of the new Models.
