IMO, they are ruining the characters with the new art style and designs... What a shame...

So, what would you have them look like, considering they looked like badly modeled plastic dolls back 20 years ago?

It's not about the models. It's about the design of them. I agree, some of these looks bloody awful. That is simply not Chief Thunder, nor what I had in mind. That is Tonto from Lone Ranger. Stereotypical native American style look. Looks like a design for a native American they'd come up with in a 50's comic book.

I'm guessing that the modelers are talented, but the concept art this is based on? Shit. Utter shit. Unappealing crap design.

But i guess i'm damaged, browsing around on the Zbrush forums every day looking at amazing people making amazing stuff.

I actually wasn't referring to the actual models, but the design. The design of the old characters, Chief Thunder in-particular was pretty bad. He was only "Indian" or "Native American" because of the stereotypical (borderline racist) portrayal of him in cutscenes.

Every news I see about this game makes me hate MS more and more. Hate the new designs... and where's the girls? Only 8 characters, I'm guessing Orchid will be the only one

The proportions on all the old characters were pretty weird, IMHO. I think for today's audiences, that wouldn't fly. Even Brink's characters looked more "natural" compared to KI's.

Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the original KI and Chief Thunder was my favorite character (which is why I was never a KI2 fan), but they were cool "back then". Nowadays, they just look odd and amateurish. (again, my opinion).

I like what I've seen in Chief Thunder and Saberwolf, so far.

Now, bring on my TJ Combo and Orchid and we're set!!!

As long as the females look fantastic all will be forgiven. Still a wait and see for that
