After about a week of not looking at the pets I've visited shieboo's page once again. So once the initial OMGwhathavetheydonesougly!!!111eleven stage is over, I can say that I have two major issues with the new pets:
1) The facial expressions, or the lack of them in some cases. You know, grey pets looking happy, darigan pets lokoking cute, some pets looking lobotomized (the bori, oh the poor bori) Seeing as TNT is fixing something in this area, I still have some hope.
2) The poses. Ok, here I am clueless. We all thought that the fist pose is that they can hold something in their paws/hands, but not all of them are in this position. And I really can't figure out how they made the distinction here, because for example the xweetook is on all fours and has a raised fist, but the bori is practcally in the same pose and is fistless.
And the other thing - ok, so let's say I can understand the "all pets must be in the same pose so that we don't have to draw a bazillion of versions for each clothing item" approach. But the thing is, most maraquan pets ARE NOT in the same pose as the normal ones. Sure, some just have their hind replaced with a fishy-like tail like the zafara or the blumaroo, but the shoryuu, the gerelt, the elephante - they're all very different. Plus, 95% of them look as if they're swimming. So... they COULD alter maraquan pets and make them look like thay're underwater, but they COULDN"T make faerie pets look like they're floating in the air?
