there's a reason "everyone's" pointing it out. I duno how long you've been around, but yoshi's classic look is VERY different to this one
what was wrong with these?
I far prefer the rounded spikes to those. Admittedly, that's purely a matter of taste, so go for whatever kind of spikes you like. Even if the pointer ones are a more "classic" look for him, I still don't think they reflect his personality well.
He's also has the classic look for a while too....including in the recent "Yoshi's island 2"
And? My point was just that Yoshi's "standing up right" look isn't all that uncommon anymore. Besides, we've seen a total of for screenshots, and he IS leaning in 3 out of the 4.
the new yoshi looks so more childish (or high) now compared to other character's new looks (like bowser's and DK's)
Would you really consider Yoshi to be the same kind of character as Bowser and DK? He deserves to look more childish or cutesy; that's been his personality for as long as I've known of him.
and I'm pretty sure these do not pass as identicle...
I guess they aren't "practically identical" but I still don't see big enough differences to freak out over. And, how convenient of you to pick the picture of him
bursting out of his egg shield/roll rather than the other three picks of him where he actually isn't standing like a human. The truth is, we haven't seen his normal standing position. So we have no idea if that's changed. Your pictures, in that sense, mean nothing.
And I don't mainly mean you when I say that people are freaking out. I've just seen posts in here and in a couple other threads that play up the differences far more than need be, imo.
If that's any idication of me....
It's not. I was mainly thinking of Xenogears, or whatever his/her name is.
look, ALOT of poeple KNOW that the new yoshi looks different by more than "miniscule"......even Fawriel, said how he likes the new look.....the "new"look....
I've used the term "new look" to, without meaning "totally different look". I just mainly meant it in the sense that it was the way he looks in Brawl, this
new game that's coming out. I can't speak for Fawriel, but who's to say he didn't mean the same thing?
that's because majority APPROVE of Bowser's new look....but in Yoshi's case, he isn't as much capitalized on like Bowser's appearance was, just more changed in a different direction.
I saw PLENTY of people saying Bowser looked "too much like a monster" or that he's "lost his 'cute'". The difference is, he deserves it, because his changes are more significant. His proportions make him look much more "realistic" (and by that I mainly mean his head shrunk, his hair isn't so sectioned off, his nails and horns are dirty, and his eyes aren't so puny) which makes him scarier, and in turn, robs him of his slight cartoony-ness. And if I noticed all that in Bowser right away, and not with Yoshi, I think that should really say something.
and "tiny differences".....dude...DETAIL IS KEY....coming from someone who is heartly involved with theatre and such, the SMALLEST DETAILS can make the BIGGEST DIFFERENCES!......a picture's worth a 1000 words
Generally, I do agree with this. Subtle differences do matter, but to different extents in different cases. I'm no drama student/actor/theatre major/etc. but I imagine small mistakes or alterations can certainly change the way an audience views something. But at this point, he really just looks "rounder", overall, than before. And yeah, I think that's a little
too subtle to matter. And please don't act like you know more about this than I do because you're involved in theater. You sounded like you had a bit of a superiority complex in that last paragraph.
