It makes a lot of sense, given the special effects (weapon trail changing colors) and doing SCV-level damage. But they could've at least updated their looks and show some signs of aging. Just ripping models from a game from 2008 seems lazy to me.I guess I might as well put this here now:
That is done by "back porting" assets from SC: LS to SC5. Which works as well as shown in the video; a few minor bugs but stable overall.
No way in hell are they going to put a 46-year-old in a skin-tight bodysuit. God knows they haven't aged well.It makes a lot of sense, given the special effects (weapon trail changing colors) and doing SCV-level damage.

That's Japan for you.No way in hell are they going to put a 46-year-old in a skin-tight bodysuit. God knows they haven't aged well.
Ah!That's Japan for you.
It's not about chronological sense. It just seemed lazy for them to simply reuse designs from a game over six years old. SCV is at least more recent. One thing about the models from SCIV was that they tended to look like plastic, but seeing the models use SCV's engine and lighting seems to make them look a lot better...I still don't get why people are still somehow trying to make chronological sense out of this game... lol
I look at SCLS as just simply a mish-mash - just for fun - F2P - game experiment what have you and has really nothing to do with the story canon at all.
And they didn't just rip the models right out of the previous game either although a good portion was "borrowed" and reformatted to port. SC5 (and SCLS)'s engine is slightly different in that it needs an additional texture layer (lightmaps) and the normal maps are a bit different as well. Frankly (IMHO) in some instances, some of the character models from SC4 actually look better than their recent renditions in SCLS (like Taki).
Taki (SC4 model on left / SCLS model on right)
She still looks okay but some of the finer details are on the more simpler side. However, it looks a bit more "flat" IMO. The same goes for Sophitia when you compare her looks in SCLS vs SC4. Still you get what you get. (I don't want to say "It is what it is" - been hearing that all week at work - sick and tired of that tag line).
Japanese women (or asian women as a whole) tend to age well, actually.No way in hell are they going to put a 46-year-old in a skin-tight bodysuit. God knows they haven't aged well.
