They're not wrong. I was fine with Chun, Cammy and R.Mika but Karin looks really, really bad.
She looked like a woman instead of a girl.
yup
if the change sticks, what a bummer. cammy looked pretty rad before
now she looks like a fucking doll
I feel like that look is specific to the alternate costume. Chun-Li also looks slightly different with her alt.

Karin looks fine , and Cammy was a lot better before as well. Before getting all big-eyed anime like.
THIS...
FFS Capcom , Japan has like less than 10% of Street Fighters revenue. Ignore them , they just want to make this another Blazblue,GG-esque artstyle game. And how successful are those games outisde of Japan?

In the TGS footage cammy looks the same as her original look, just with slight upgrades to the eyelashes and such. So you may be right.

I hope so...
The only issue I really have with Karin is her hair. They did this with Ken too where they make blond hair banana yellow. And then even if there is texture to the hair, it's totally muted by the bright ass yellow coloring. Make the hair color more natural and both characters would look a hell of a lot better.

I was pretty shocked at first just because of how different she looked. But, after seeing her these last few days, I'm used to it now. She doesn't look bad at all, just different.
some how hideous, ok
I don't think her face has actually changed at all in those pictures. It's just the angle and lighting.

There was a Cammy change?
Her animations add to the hideous effect, like the way her face stretches when she laughs. I think her default wear is also lacking shadows or any clothing fold, so it makes her look like a piece of plastic.
While the whole of SFV is pretty ugly I'd say Birdie is the best looking character in the game. Best animations and best style.
Oh well, in progress work and all that.
oh like, in terms of dimensions/art style, they're pretty crazy. but they actually animate/move in a really spectacular way.
No, there wasn't. The TGS stream just before Karin was revealed showed it's the same.
It's the alternate costume, guys.
weird, so alternate costumes are actually totally new models?
i mean..thats actually kinda cool? lets the "costumes" feel more unique

Yeah she does seem to have changed since her reveal trailer, especially the eyes. I have no source on this though, just a feeling.
Wow that's spot on.

Just give her a Kodachi from Ranma alternate costume already.

She does look good here. I guess it really depends on the angles.
While I like SFV's look in general, I don't really think it's right to just label everyone complaining about her (or Cammy's) face a weeaboo or otaku. I don't know if they are asking for bigger eyes and giant chin, they just want her to look a bit more attractive. She's supposed to be a very pretty girl. Then again, she's an adult now and some people aren't really understanding that it isn't SFA Karin, it's the same character but years later.
On the flip side, I think Capcom is getting a bit of a pass because SF4 looked like dog shit and this looks significantly better. At least, I can admit to giving them a bit of a pass because I'm relieved that this looks legitimately good. Improved faces and hair and animations would make it look legitimately better IMO (all around, not just the chicks). But if nothing changes visually I'd be fine with it. It's still a beautiful game to look at. Except for some of the stage elements, they def could use some work (especially the waterfall stage).

She looks pretty different from different angles.
I don't have any issue with how she looks either way though. In fact I haven't really had an issue with the way any of the cast looks, but that's just me.
Agree with Cammy, but I'm perfectly fine with the changes made to Chun. I don't get what the "otaku" comments are about, though, this is the ojou laugh character, if anything, it's the one with the biggest "otaku appeal", isn't it?
I will never get over Cassie's face. Actually, all the human faces in MKX look busted.
I'm loving all of the designs in SF5 so far, Karin the least, probably. I don't like her outfit, especially those stupid sleeves on that lame jacket thing whatever it is she's wearing, but I do like full leggings instead of half leggings. I think half leggings look stupid.
Sf4 did look like dogshit

It's possible the DLC screens were from a build further along than the TGS one.
it mainly seems like the facial animations are making things look funky. there's a lot more going on in terms of expressions than in SFIV, and some of that is bound to look off in stills, and things are obviously not complete. it's a lot harder to get those smirks and stuff done right in full animation.
Such hyperbole.
Daaaaaaamn
[looks at one screen shot, focuses on it immensely, ignoring all the great shots and what she actually looks like in motion]
"Looks hideous."
That one shot isn't representive of her face at all. You could go frame by frame in the trailer, and the only moment you'll see her looking weird is in that one moment. It's odd.

I can look at her character model and know that's Karin. Don't need to opine on how she looks...kind of irrelevant to me.
since we're on the subject, quoting KidA from the community thread (he probably posted this in here actually oh well)
indicative of model changes or just softer portraits? the bananas are fucking real tho
There have been a couple of changes done to the TGS build compared to the PAX build. The portraits.
right side is tgs
left side is tgs
These changes happened for other characters too. Are those new portraits the faces SFV characters will ultimately have?

I feel like the TGS portraits are drawn rather than being pictures of the in-game models.
Back to Karin, more archives from the TGS stream have been uploaded to YouTube.

I mean, lets be honest here, Guilty Gear Xrd looks way better than this.
Hopefully not. Anime looking Cammy looks bad.
