Graphics of characters

[Dendrazzik]

Hi,
Is it me or the graphics design for the characters are not well made and seems old?....Like mass effect which is an older game 10 years+ seems to have the same facial or even better graphics than this one....explanation?

well?

Some of them look good, hunter, captain marvel, blade etc, but others look like they came out of a PS3 game, looking at you Tony, some also have this weird oddly smooth look to them, Nico in some scenes looks really odd. I chalk it up to being a legacy problem from the XCOM2 engine, but who knows.

I havn't checked but i wouldn't be surprised if they're using the same engine as xcom 2

Midnight Suns uses the Unreal Engine version 4.

Xcom 2 used the version 3.5.

For sure some work has been ported from Xcom 3.5 to Midnight Suns 4.0, but that's perfectly normal and fine since it is a common and efficient way most developers use in their games.

Honestly, to me they look like XCOM character models. I suspect they used the same engine from that with a few tweaks. They do not look great, that is for sure. But I still enjoy playing classic games so I am okay with models that look a decade old if the game plays well.
