There's nothing else to look at than Phoenix's pointing finger. Phoeni'x pointing finger is absolute.

Phoenix is pointing up. Hmm...

Spoiler: I've got it
He's pointing at Galactus.

I don't mind the face as much, as I do its speaking animation.

Pfft she's one of the most attractive/fun individuals in the game she can pull-off the look.

I have to agree. I think she is actually one of prettiest one's in DD. I have to admit Pearls has gotten really pretty as well.

Oh ho ho ho. :gymshoe: Or is it Yo ho ho? Pierre is into hos? :hotti: (Oh relax, I know Sasha's not that type.)

Huh, so that's what's missing from the smilies - Sasha! (in my set anyway)

Umm that's probably part of a bikini, considering she does a show at an aquarium.

Taking into account that the colors match her top, I'd say that's a valid assumption.

Yeah, Sasha seems to be intentionally sexy and I don't mind! It's funny how she's pretty sexy looking with her clothes and all but her face looks so tired.

This face from Phoenix is just unsettling. I much prefer the original trilogy version of this face.

The first one isn't that bad, but the second one... XD

I usually didn't have a problem with how the characters were drawn in this game, but for some reason, Phoenix's awkward proportions stood out the most. In fact, he was the only character in that game that I continued to see issues with regarding how he looked, in-game model or otherwise. There were a few instances of minor disproportion with him in DD as well, but they're nothing compared to how hilarious Apollo or Athena can look... especially Apollo.

I seem to be the only one who actually liked that expression. Even despite being nervous, he didn't exactly revert. I'd feel extremely awkward with the old expression - it would be all like he's a rookie again.

Post subject:  Re: Ugliest face in Dual Destinies?

Yeah, I think they kinda messed up Phoenix in PLvsPWAA altogether. An emotionless disproportionate Super Saiyan with some serious lag issues... compared to Prof. Layton, who luckily had been through the 3D process before, so he wasn't too bad. But think about this...

Professor Layton's 3D Timeline - 1.) Miracle Mask 2.) PLvsPWAA 3.) Azran Legacy

Phoenix Wright's 3D Timeline - 1.) PLvsPWAA 2.) Dual Destines

So Phoenix DID have a crash course on how his 3D works, so there's no excuses for mistakes in Dual Destinies -not really- but still.
Take a look at Professor Layton... in Azran Legacy - after two other 3D games - he looks MAGICAL.

Post subject:  Re: Ugliest face in Dual Destinies?

haha yeah I think the worst faces are the ones where they do way too much to the pupils (or just make them disappear in the case of Nick!)
I'm sorta surprised there's more hate for Athena's :athena: faces than Apollo's :apollo-shock: lol. There were only a handful of his expressions that I found appealing

They've never had a really consistent look though, since most of the sprites are super exaggerated poses - which makes it even harder to nail a baseline in 3d. So I actually liked most of the 3d versions more than the 2d sprites. If anyone's interested, AFAIK they did actually make full/partial face model swaps for a lot of the different angles and expressions. Some expressions do have some smooth facial animation, so they must have been fully rigged - but it seems like they use it mostly for opening/closing the mouth and for animating into the extreme poses like the 'Objections' :object: or shocked faces :ack:

I wonder if they sorta hamstrung themselves with that, since that limited what expressions they could use/reuse, not being able to adjust expressions for different situations, and the gaze of the eyes (hence Athena's focus on Phoenix's finger lol)

To me, she looks like she's about to sneeze. Still, anything with Pearly is cute. I must object to your suggestion that such a picture belongs in this thread!

Been mentioned multiple times in this thread. It's even mentioned in the third reply in this thread. How far down did you read before saying "they were all really terrifying"?

Urgh, yes. Everything about him makes me severely uncomfortable. And his statuesque skin colour makes me feel feverish because it looks so unhealthy, like he was really ill.
