Second. The reason being, Honey Select has a major visual flaw to me in areas where the model has what looks more like a painted on texture. In particular, the Eyes, Ears, Nostrils, Belly Button, etc. Your second image seems to have that drastically reduced.

That said, she does actually look way more asian. Maybe try getting in touch with @Runey. He has a few more western looking characters, particulaarly Kali and Lucia.

Obviously 2nd
Reason : I dunno, it just seemed far more appealing imo :D
I'm not an expert on design nor had any experience in developing a game, but from my experience for playing a few dozens of honey select based eroges, more or less I could say that the 2nd model would be more appealing and potentially popular
Not to mention that a bunch of ppl would avoid to play honey select games due to it's (sorry) "cheap" looks

Yeah, every girl tends to look identical and doll-like, men have specific bad faces and penises look like they're carved out of stone. Skin looks awful on everything.
There's already an overabundance of daz3d games so why would people make inferior 3dcg games to those?

It's really hard to say, the glossiness on the chairs look the same in both pictures so I call it a draw.

True, I might be a fan of honey select games but I won't deny ur statement, seeing the fact that out of almost 40 titles I've had to played so far, only less than 15 that I personally deemed "appealing"
It might be okay if it at the very least have a good premise, but obviously would be far more enjoyable if supported with good looking models :D

Although it has certain limitations, Honey Select is an easy-to-use tool that does not require the developer to lose hundreds of hours to render all the scenes of a project.

You could then take that as a way to filter out devs who can't put the effort in. HS visuals should correlate with other aspects of game being lacking as well.
Can't say I've been impressed by the story or gameplay of the few HS titles I've played.

I gotta say, in my opinion, I love both Daz and HS
It maybe because I'm asian so I got accustomed of Japanese things(anime,manga,h-game)
but the main reason that I use HS for my game because HS is faster to render
At first I also use Daz but it take endless time to render 1 image(because I only have 5 year old laptop)
and this is an example of my work

this is the original Alice(Daz) same as Alice(HS ver.) in the 1st pic
so thank all of you for feedbacks, I will stick with 2nd one

Most of the bad games I've ever played were created using Daz3d and that does not make me think that all games made with this tool are bad.

The use of Honey Select may indicate that the developer does not have a high-end computer or that he has no experience with 3d models, but I don't think it can be used as indicative of poor quality.
