1st Head Upgrade - Blue Face Lines, Lazy and Ugly.

[Moon Rabbit]

1. Can't change the color, so it ♥♥♥♥♥ with your look. No reason why this should be restricted.
2. The texture is so badly designed, and so half assed in implementation, that it literally cuts off before reaching your hairline. You can see where the line on your forehead, where the texture is cut short. This is pathetic. As it looks terrible with any hairstyle that lacks full bangs.
3. It's unavoidable! What in god's name were the developers thinking making this face mangling effect mandatory? It's the first and only option for head upgrades.

Yeah I get that these upgrades are in exchange for power and they have a "cost" yada yada. But there is no excuse for making them so awful.

Eh, I actually think the upgrade looks good. At the very least, you can still see your face compared to the helmets at the end of the upgrade tree. Upgrade more and you would probably appreciate the looks of the beginning upgrades. Besides, you said you understood they have a 'cost', but if they all look super good, is there really a 'cost'?

Yeah, most of the cybernetics look like very low effort, design wise, and it gets worse if you pick upgrades from different branches. There's cheat engine tables that you can use to pick a different one for each body part, or just disable them. I used this one since it seemed the simplest one to use:

The changes persist from the moment you save the game, until you change something in the lab, so no need to run it every time.

It would, if the game's story involved that cost. But it doesn't. Making the entire idea shallow. They can still make the parts aesthetically pleasing.
I do agree it looks better than the helmets.

I don't mind the lines themselves. It's the fact that there is a clear line that cuts the top of the lines off on your forehead.

Awesome! I'll check it out.

Not like it matter considering your final head upgrade is a full face helmet that completely covers up your face.
