Andy.5981 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Something has been bugging me about this "Pegasus" model and where have I seen one on my computer before, more importantly I was wondering if there was some way that Anet could have found some inspiration when creating their model. This morning I remembered.Windows 10 Machine - Press Start > 3D viewer > Click on the 3D library button and voila, there in all its glory top left is something that is listed as a 'Unicorn'. It is without doubt a billion times better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinchpinch.8651 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 You know, not all unicorns can be the instagram supermodels with facetuned pictures.Just look at this sweet boy below. I bet our Pegasus was modelled right after him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyncale.1629 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 I was thinking this could have been their April 1st prank, I think that would have actually caused some laughs (and upset people at first). I hope the sales of this mount will reflect the sentiment of this thread, and that they will get their stuff together again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pagan Highlander.5948 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 It was a great looking mount skin, UNTIL you see the feet and other features of the griffin. No wonder most of the conversations in map/say/guild/squad chats was overwhelmingly negative. Get rid of the Griffin aspect and this is a mount skin well worth buying or obtaining Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widmo.3186 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 See folks, thats what happens when you want to create something that everyone knows how it looks like and what its supposted to look like, but instead you persistently want to create something different, to show how distinctive you are.Just dont, pegasus is a horse with wings, stay to the pattern, just like BDO, WoW and others. It works, people like it, and noone cries because "ugh, again horse with wings, maybe use your brain and create something new, dont copy already existing things".

Asenath.8694 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Can you imagine a pegasus sticking to the side of a cliff? lol. Griffon is the most logical choice for the physics. I would have switched to main griffon if they had gotten the skin right.This pegasus could! He's got long, touchy feely finger toes! rofl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amy of Darkness.5248 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Weren't people also asking for a "horse" mount that looks like the one that's just Skritt in a horse costume? What's under that bulky horse blanket on the neck area? ;)But I don't want to pick on this pterippi, it looks like it can actually hear everyone calling it pterrible, the poor thing. It's like the person who to worked on this deliberately crafted that Eeyore look in its eyes just to say "Yeah, I know what you're thinking". :'( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, the "issues" with the skin is actually very simple - it's a matter of proportions. It sits too low with too chubby front legs, which just makes it look weird and reminds me of a potbelly pig. Their concept art looks much more proportional with slimmer front legs and sitting slightly higher.That people want it to be a horse is just silly.

It might just be the angle but the legs look too short for the body (especially the back legs) and the wings just look tacked on, which I know is how a pegasus normally looks but I prefer the ones where the wings meld into the body better and/or they include some suggestion of muscles to move them. Of course the GW2 one gets around that by having most of the body hidden so you can't clearly see how the wings connect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moradorin.6217 Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Im just going to suggest that Pegasus dont have horns and Unicorns dont have curved almost d*k shaped horns either. Why should it have this "thing" stuck to its head??? LOL seriously! Just remove the horn or make it the correct type at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a Pegasus.This is very very poor.It's not supposed to be a normal Pegasus, it's supposed to be the Tyrian version of a Pegasus, which ArenaNet can make look any way they want, and honestly, it's called a Sacred Pegasus Griffon, which means it's a combination of a Pegasus with a Griffon(and a little Unicorn thrown in for good measure), so it looks the way it does because that's the name of it. Had it been just a Pegasus then I would have described the skin as a Sacred Pegasus Skin for Griffon, not thrown in Griffon before the word Skin.

Moradorin.6217 Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Looks like a glowing dildo strapped to a horses head...not a hornIt would be much funnier as a war claw that could shoot the horn to dismount ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
