One of the biggest art trends now is artists fix the concord designs and many explain multiple different aspects of how concord character design failed.
I seriously doubt executive demands had anything to do with you doing a bad job at such a fundamental level. Those characters are poorly made and them being black, brown, fat and transgender had nothing to do with it. If you are asked to do a black fat character your job as an artist is to make the coolest looking black fat character ever. We have character design principles for a reason, principles you should know and that's your job not the executive's.
ps. Just subbed 👍
Gamers: No shit Sherlock
I can see an apeal to some of the designs itself but nothing i wanna play as.
I feel for player characters its best to keep ot as simplistic (backstory wise) so players can fill the blank.
And the design somthing ppl wanna be. Or be with. Or just awesome in general.
And that is what killing gaming. Gaming development has become factory work, the developers simply don't care about their own product, it's all about finishing before deadlines laid upon them by HQ so they get paid at the end of the month.
There are games where they change the art in the beta stage that is different than the release art.
Cant understand what crap shes trying to say when she can still change it when it was the beta stage. There is more than enough time to change the design of the character
Reality: you will do what boss tells you to do
they hate gaming. Wait till they get another job in marketing and same happens xD
You know what I did?
I didn't quit because it was a paycheck,but eventually I got fired.
They said I didn't do the job right too many times!
That's the normal result of that!🤷
