Asian faces sliders

[Paralux.6714]

I don't get why so many people find these faces ugly. They're not. I think some of them should be able to adjust more though, there are sliders which do nothing or close to nothing for one or two of the new faces. Still not ugly though. Here are a few pics of the faces adjusted with sliders.

https://i.imgur.com/uh99bok.jpg - One of my favorites among the new faces. You can adjust it quite much and I think it's very pretty.

https://i.imgur.com/RoM18wr.jpg - Face is cute but can't be adjusted that much. 

https://i.imgur.com/4NSVBZJ.jpg - My other favorite face among the new ones. Can be adjusted quite much with sliders. 

https://i.imgur.com/rnFR45T.jpg - I'm not a fan of faces that has very strong makeup, but this one is ok and quite pretty. I wish that you could change the direction of the way her mouth corners point though.

Still waiting for those examples of the Chinese features we don't get.

I heard once before that most of the open world drop skins are in the gem shop there, and that's all I know.

It would also be nice if the sliders for new faces were consistent with the older ones. Some work completely different from what one would expect, like moving eyes up/down while saying "eyes size" for example. Or "nose length" suddenly meaning forward/backward instead of up/down.

I only play charr. I think the face that makes no sense to me is a new "asian charr" face.

For most charr mouths, sliding the jaw tilts it forward or backward, so you can have an overbite or underbite or try really hard to have functioning teeth (me) xD But for one of the faces, sliding the jaw moves it up and down. As in, you're adjusting how constantly slack-jawed/open-mouthed you are. What? Why? This is not how charr face customization works!

Also, the animations of the face are weird. It animates normally if you emote /talk, but in cutscene conversations with the two people on either side of the screen, this charr talks with its upper lip. The jaw doesn't seem to be moving much at all; my character was straight-up talking with her upper lip. What? What nonsense is this! This charr face seems to have a completely different skull than other charr faces, or maybe they just messed up something. Since /talk looks fine, I have no idea what exactly it is that was messed up.

These are good. The first pic will need some work from the default sliders. Second one is nice from the start as well

I'd like to just add without creating a new topic, that the sliders for the asian faces are labelled incorrectly. "Eye Angle" ends up moving the "Eye Position" and vice versa, "Nose length" ends up changing the "Nose height" and some of the sliders like "Eyebrow height" doesn't even do anything.

Those kids are either too poor for shoes or filthy rich and spoiled since they could afford 2880+ gold for Invisible Boots.

Well, well, good to see necromancers plying their trade in the forums. 
It is for a good cause though.  Is Anet going to fix those face sliders or not? and if not why not? 

Would correcting the face sliders in character creation affect folks who are currently using those faces?

Its only been a month since the last post, hardly a necro thread.

if you think that's a problem, wait until you find out about the china client.

it has everything we need yet none of that is available to any western client, it would've saved them tons of time if they just ported that.....

Fancy showing us what options they got there with pics?

[Zebulous.2934]

I assume a different company is running the Chinese server.  Still I wonder if Anet could buy the assets from them.  Though how does Anet then recoup the money spent, without placing those assets behind a paywall?  For all I know the Chinese server would see Anet as competition, not reasonable imo, but they could.

Every hairstyle should be unisex imo. Just like RL hair.

Unisex means it fits both sexes. Designed for both in mind. Unlocking different styles for both sexes is hardly unisex.
