Thanks. I'm sorry, but I fail to understand the rest of the comment. Who do you mean by "the original 4 girls"? The people in the cryo pods? There are 7 other people in the room with MC's cryo pod, 6 female (2 mother's, 4 young adults) one male. I don't understand the phrase "especially deranged" in this context.
I assume you don't like the renders from the cryo pod events in the end, but I'm not sure why you don't like them. Are the models or the textures / shading an issue to you or the render quality? I fail to see a gap in quality between those images and the rest of my renders.
However, I won't make their current content optional or even delete them, as those events are instruction's of their characters. For later events with those characters I won't make major overhauls on their models or textures. If I can make improvements to my shader's in the future, the appearance could be slightly different, but it won't be something major.
Not sure what you mean with "They are crispy with old age. I guess it's due to frost bite from the bad cryogenics.". Do you think the characters look like they are of old age? Personally, I don't think so. Well, the two mothers maybe, but I don't think they look to old.
First on the answer list: The 4 girls in the preview pictures. If among them are the two mothers, sure, I can agree on their renders, the wrinkles, the large cheek bones, the excess in freckles, even the blatant demonic eye shadow of the dark redhead.
But why put that redhead in almost half of the preview pics? Why spoil the cryogenics ending? Yes, why the huge gap between the quality of these 4 and the fifth who is drop-dead gorgeous?
Why imply the presence of a second male character with a single, very difficult to understand picture of both males sleeping in a cramped place, like some gay couple? The story may be interesting, but the preview pics imply none of that.
You shove that redhead grandma's face with over-saturated textures and left next-to-nothing for the initial presentation of rest of your cast. ;-;
I didn't even need to play the game and I'm already ignoring it.
Second on the answer list: "especially deranged" means the cultured viewers/players,
who appreciate(for lack of a better word) this kind of rendering,
of the characters in a realistic, life or death scenario who make a relationship work despite their overall decrepit looks.
Third and final answer: Of course I think the female characters in the preview pics look old. I doubt people need to play much of the game to find signs of malnutrition and side-effects of bad cryogenics in the renders of moms 1-2 and gals 1-2.
My shock came with the reveal of gal 3, whose renders look better than those of the first four combined.
Hell, the simplest detail, her hairstyle is better than theirs. Longer than theirs.
People sleep on this fact, but hair portraits character. Depth of character, insecurities, focus, goals, ideals.
If ones hairstyle does not match their character, they are either poorly made, or supposed to be misleading for plot reasons.
