Yes, it seems as though they're adding an extra bit of shine to Aqua's character when I don't think it's necessary. I really think it's the lighting and less wrong with the character model. I say this because there are some spots where the lighting is fine and I think she looks gorgeous!
But then there's other where it looks... a little awkward for some reason... It's like they're not lighting her to fit her surroundings.
On the other hand, I don't feel this way at all during her battle sequences. Her lighting looks just right?
That said, the lighting in Backcover looks absolutely spot on perfect.
They don't look like toys randomly plopped into an environment. For example:
They don't have that... 'shine' on them. If they just take the shine of Aqua's skin and a little off her hair, I think it'd look just fine. I"m really fine with it either way, but I can't help but be a little bothered by it even when I try to ignore it. Maybe they're 'shiny' because they are the playable characters and need to stick out more. Maybe they decided to go with this ultra shiny look because it will be strange enough to fit in all the worlds they have planned. I don't really know.
But everything else is great. Environments look AMAZING, so detailed, it feels like we're really there. Great animations! I hope they switch out Sora's goofy waterfall animation with something more reasonable like Aqua's slide. Aqua's voice acting on point~
If shine on the character's skin is the only thing people have to complain about, I don't know why people seem so fussy. At least it's not the constant whining about "KH3 KH3 WHO CARES ABOUT THIS STUFF". Now that is worth the annoyed attitudes.
