I like most of the new Avatars a lot more than the old ones. But some just manage to screw it up, unintentionally I'm sure.

I think "This game used to be about a concept and gameplay (even with its flaws). Now it's about flash and visuals and choosing to drop support for older hardware so it's easier to maintain just the new flashy visuals." Yes, there's new gameplay, but it's being overshadowed by the other features - and by this I mean, when you wholesale eliminate certain hardware from being able to run an application, that overshadows gameplay.
Eventually the hardware demands are going to strip the capability of my machine (well, more likely the capability of TransGaming to bridge the Windows APIs so they work on my Mac) and CCP will lose a customer because I'm not going to upgrade a machine just to play a game.
Essentially my view is that the avatar change is a symptom of a greater shift in the EvE vision. "Good change" and "bad change" don't even apply; it's just a change, and people are entitled to embrace or eschew the change according to their own preferences.

I think that far too many are easily sold on hollow upgrades merely because they are new.
The current character creator does not give me the option of creating anything like the varied races and looks that existed before, and it is not an improvement in any way. You are all still in denial, but you all look the same to me now, where-as most did not before.

totally, totally agreed. and very well put. i couldn't say it better.
but i will add -- seriously, 90% of the new ones look more cartooney than the old ones anyway. sure some people spent time and have made some good ones with the new shiny-toy creator app but dismissing the old ones as cartooney is a silly cop-out. there were just as many good looking characters before as there are now and they had way more character before. the new ones look like they could be from the sims or whatever the equivalent game is that the kids might be into these days.

Yeah.. You know when you are old when you can remember MTV playing "Music Videos".
Looking back though, I sort of miss the fact that I could not recreate a new version of the "old me". But as for my Achura alt, I don't miss the old one.

Originally by: Hot Vherokior I think:
WTF, how could we stand those horrible graphics for so long.
The graphics may have been poor, but the older portraits showed the differences between the races a lot better. A Minmatar looks almost as much as a Caldari or a Gallente or an Amarr with the new portraits, though I know some of you will remind me that tattoos and piercings and more clothing options in the summertime will change that.

I'm thinking...
What have happen with eve when fixing eyeliner color is more important then fixing game breaking bugs like overview and fleet booster? And why is it so important that i have a t-shirt on me?

I think "why can't i make a screenshot anymore?" The new character icons don't have the option anymore.
