>>38672041No it doesn't. It just embraces a more cutsey forest nymph/ fertility goddess aspects than it's forest diety aspects. It's far more appealing and approachable now, rhan the latter which looks disgusting.
>old design was less waifubaitNo. If anything both are designed to waifu/furbait extremes. The past design torso was way more shaped like human woman with arguably more human-like proportions. It even has girlier eye lash make up. Plus I consider the design to be incredibly inconsistent. Why does it have metalic-looking arm braces/arm guards? Why does it have it have a hair tie? Why are it's front paws/hands hoove free despite it's legs having hooves?
It even seems lazier/less thought out than the current incarnation. If it was always supposed to be based on what this post claims
>>38669903than it does a disservice to the more interesting ideas thar went into it. Compared to the most recent design which captures concepts better, while bringing it's fertility god basis to front as much as the forest diety.
I still think both designs aren't worth an entire thread and are pretty bad, but you're retarded to think the past iteration was better at getting all of the ideas across.
>"b-but the previous was more gender neutral!"Not an argument, first off these are fictional creatures they can as manly or girly as they want. It does effect their gender/sex. Secondly, the species do not, can not and should not conform to what we consider masculine or feminine. Finally, look at Emboar, Machamp, Hariyama, Incineroar and tell me they look gender neutral. If they do, than I don't see why this doesn't.
Also imo, the current design fits GF style more than the past design.
