Depends how drastic the change is.
I just don't understand the need to Tom Holland'ed the face of PS4's Spider-Man game.
1 to 2 jarred me the most. Half way through the 2nd I didn't care anymore![]()
Max Payne looks different in every game but still somehow feels like the same character, maybe because the voice acting is the same.
Fat Alloy is seriously a GOAT-tier meme.
Resident Evil has the worse inconsistency for their character each iteration.RE7 Chris is so weird,wtf were they thinking....It sticks out so bad amongst all the others.
Came to post this. It's frustrating because the series has continuity and spans like 15 years of these characters' lives.Resident Evil has the worse inconsistency for their character each iteration.
The context of each face is different.
That Simon Sinek's face expression from halo 5.Halo 4 Cortana

I like the original one best. Was unique with his weird grimaces. Max in part 2 felt like he fell out of a Mafia game and the newest Max iteration obviosly has Rockstar design to him.![]()

I came to post this.I don't find the character differences here all that big of a deal. Xenosaga is a bad one for me.

Yes the yellow and blue ninja have hair now. How can I even recognize them?If they look completely different then it matters a lot.
Even if modern Mortal Kombat wasn't ran by greedy scumbags, I'd still pass on it just because so much of the cast is completely unrecognizable from the early games.
They look drastically different from game to game. Just go look at character models from the last 4 or so entries.Yes the yellow and blue ninja have hair now. How can I even recognize them?
And the guy who does bicycle kicks shooting fireballs used to wear black with red, but now it's white and red?
Wtf did they do to the MK cast? Can't tell who they are at all.

I just think the game you selected, based off of iconic characters people immediately recognize no matter which version you pick, isn't the best example to OPs point.They look drastically different from game to game. Just go look at character models from the last 4 or so entries.
Either way you seem upset that I have an opinion related to the topic. Sorry?
MK has had some of the most drastic changes from game to game in a franchise ever. Redesigning a character from the ground up then going "put some *insert color* on the costume so they know it's *insert character*" seems to be how they handle it.I just think the game you selected, based off of iconic characters people immediately recognize no matter which version you pick, isn't the best example to OPs point.
Shit street fighter is a better example to pick from. Akuma from SF to SF6 is night and day unless you pick the legacy costume. Ken looks super different from SF3/4, to 6.
I think it makes sense. People playing the remaster are latecomers or casuals who just picked up the Spiderman 2 game. They would be confused to not see the movie character.I just don't understand the need to Tom Holland'ed the face of PS4's Spider-Man game.

2 is very similar, 3 is a different person
1 looks like a younger version.
They got the noise and everything else right.
But yeah he looks older then DR1
DR2 just looks more detailed and like I said, more advanced receding.
Lara is pretty consistent up until Rise of the Tomb Raider.
The original 2013 one they made her look a little Chinese in game, the Definitive Edition was better( yes I know people think the original is better but it wasn't)

Seriously, the 2013 Lara was better camp was smoking something.

Don't really like when characters look too different, maybe the original actress wasn't available but it's still weird, like a character being recast halfway through a show, always jarring.
I think that has more to do with the fact the original game was 360 game while 2nd game was XSX/PS5 game with much more realistic face.![]()

1 and 2 were consistent. 3 is stylized differently and he doesn't look any older. His eyes are completely different and slant upwards instead of downwards. Same with his hair. He's not any taller.If it shows age progression then I dont mind.

Whatever the reason is, the change is still bothering me especially when it made me think Peter Parker looks few years younger like he's still in high school.
One the other hand, in The Last of Us, Tess is made few years older to the point of close to being a grandmother.

Ubisoft was really good about keeping Sam Fisher's look consistent.
Technology improved and his outfits were different, but his face was always recognizably the same.

And then came this abomination:

Face was wrong. Voice was a nightmare.
Still a good game, but that ain't Sam Fisher.
