If this fails, there was an attempt. (Hopefully this will help prevent this thread from getting more cluttered.)

Guys in the Google doc please mention that the angry and sad animations for both genders need to be fixed. Also idle_happy_loop and idle_happy_pose needs to be fixed as well.

thank you tory!

honestly, a lot of us just want the whole update gone. there are too many specific errors in the update, and a lot of us just want the old version back.

thank you for taking the time out to hear us!

The pursed lips after the Eye_subtle animation for the male characters is very unusual and unrealistic. I just performed it with my own face and it’s the complete opposite of subtle :sweat_smile:
Also, the pursed lips on idle_armscrossed_awkward_loop are incredibly unattractive (IMHO)
While I don’t mind the new idle_armscrossed_angry_loop mouth, it’s not subtle and I choose this animation for a more subtle anger/annoyed expression.

Overall, the lips on majority animations are way too dramatic for the subtleties we wish to portray in our stories. I don’t mind the furrowed brow, but if we can replace the mouths with a closer version to the original, I’d be eternally grateful

Okay, am I going crazy or are the mouths moving much faster now for anyone else?

Edit: Actually it high key looks like they almost changed it back???

Okay, now it’s back for me too. But I swear it’s like changing back and forth. I keep looking at it and sometimes it’s awful and other times it’s moving okay.

I just checked and it’s still the same for me. You gave me hope! :persevere:

I don’t know if it’s in my head by I refreshed my portal and they kind of look faster? :skull:

Think we can only hope that that’s them trying to change it back to normal. We will all happily not write for a day or 2 if they needed to get the old animations back.
