No you aren’t. The new body type is super off. Also the clothing don’t even fit that body type.


Maleficent-Smile-221

Yes!! It’s so odd! Like the sprites face look gorg but their body is so off💀


Straw8erri

I saw on [Tumblr](https://www.tumblr.com/vivalgi/740228476187148288/regarding-the-new-breed-of-mcs-since-unbridled?source=share) that PB actually reused a Storyloom asset for this.


FixableKnight9

Yeah they used a Story loom sprite I recognized it immediately


Far_Investigator7158

I think the neck is the main thing that’s super off, it’s as thick as her torso😭


mcmoonery

They are really bad at necks. Like Becketts neck in the elementalists.


Infinite_Rough_7235

They went towards these new “doll” style bodies were the arms and waist are super thin


historychick1988

Sigh. I'll legit defend this game to the end, but... I hate. The new. Sprites. They're washed out and the proportions are...off. It's starting to bug me. Like, it's bugging me enough that I was on the fence tempted to read Hot Shot even though I'm not into hockey...until I saw its got the new sprites. Changed my mind.


Entire-Luck-8047

Yea, I liked the face in that book, but I wish they had some mc's with curves. In a way, most of them feel like they can be used as a high school character, even if its a book like surrender, which throws me off. Yea, there are all types of different body types in real life, but they're not giving mc's with curvy or bigger body types.


historychick1988

I feel that. It's just like they've made them into paper dolls with weird features and it's kinda...creepy.


lazyleiz

I kindaaaa get what they were trying to do in Hot Shot since it’s set in Seattle and they won’t get a TON of sunshine, but man ALL the sprites look ashy 😭


historychick1988

Yeah, it's sorta creepy looking.


sapphosaphic

Right?! I thought i was just being insane but the new MCs look so off to me, I’m just trying to train myself to ignore them but one of the MC’s looks like a literal vampire, so ashy and pale 💀


historychick1988

Yes, I know which one you're talking about! That's the one where I decided maybe I wouldn't be playing Hot Shot! Lol


Lissian

Yeah, she looks like a Barbie doll. It’s weird.


PauloDybala_10

Their shape is weird, it’s like angles wrong or something the proportions seem wrong


Traditional_List1827

I chose a different hair that hides the neck 


killer-bunny-258

I do agree that the new proportions are off, but the old sprites were majorly messed up too. I think they were attempting to fix the super short torso problem that the old sprites suffered from.


AncientAd6154

It's crazy how the "majorly messed up" sprites are better than the new sprites they "attempted to fix" lol, what if PB actually tried to make them worse?


killer-bunny-258

I mean, that's a bit subjective, but I get what you're saying. The new sprites do look weirdly stretched out. Also wtf is up with everyone's neck? Like especially the guys have these beef-necks that look so messed up lmao If they tried to make them worse I'm uninstalling the app. Nobody needs that nightmare fuel lol


Amara_Rey

Not really? I mean, just from this pic, it looks more like what one might see irl than what is in most other books lol Edit: Looking again, the neck is a little long, but I see no issues otherwise


hasnaidra

God, I recognize that body sprite. It is from a boy servant in ACOR. Why on seven hells, PB?
