Female main character faces BAD. Link provided VOTE to fix this

[StarBubbles]

Whatever female face you design in character creation does not get reflected most of the time in the game or cut scenes. The face that does show up in the game is out of proportion, weird, ugly, grimacing & head appears too big & poorly connected to neck in normal game play.

What shows up in the game isn't what the player designs & is grotesque. Many players are encountering this. Not a debate on its existence, but to escalate the problem for a needed overhaul. Follow link below to vote to fix this...

Maybe you have been playing too many korean games with "perfect" females who all look the same.
I find hogwarts females not super gorgeous, but far, far from being ugly.

I agree with this. I'm glad the females look average. They aren't ugly but they aren't unnecessarily sexualized or perfect.

The typical "there's a mod for that" response

It's a phenomenal mod that changes how the character look, try it out.

There are other mods that changes how faces appear in the game, but I kinda like this one.

The problem is that even with the mod, the facial rig is bugged. It seems like the female face uses the male facial rig which is... exclusive to males. This causes the female faces to become squished and puffed like balloons. They also have a creepy smirk on their face, as if they are smelling something very foul. You can tell that it's a male facial rig issue as sometimes you can see an Adam's Apple on female necks when they look to the side.

Just take a look on the player submitted photos and videos of the official WB bug report:
https://hogwartslegacy.bugs.wbgames.com/bug/HL-543

There is also a video demonstrating that when you cast Lumos, the female face momentarily resets and looks how it should look - like in the Character Creation room. Then it reverts back to the bugged model.

My girl's face looks fine but she has a lazy eye..

[Essence of Zem]

Huh... this explains why, when I went to make a second character, she somehow ended up looking way too similar to my first in-game, even though I'd created someone entirely different in the character creator.

And also explains why all of the screenshots from other people in that link look like my starting character, too. O.o Wow...

Someone needs to fix that bug report, though - they've got the actual results listed exactly the same as the expected results.

It seems like all female faces get "reset" in-game and they all look the same. Possibly because they all try to "fit" the male facial rig they are based on.

Only in some scripted cutscenes and the "Gear" selection menu you can see the character you chose. In the open-world they turn into gremlins.

EDIT: The bug report is terrible and whoever made it ruined it, but it is the most Voted one and it is supposed to be under investigation by WB.

I don't know, in the animation mine kinda remind me of mass effect andromeda... I feel something between creepiness and a weird nostalgia... Then I put a mask on her face thinking that it really suit a student ( or a dark lord...)

the faces look fine and a few quite pretty. Not all faces can be picture perfect like you see in those cookie cutter korean mmos

There you are, spamming once more, talking about "beauty" and "perfection" on a bug report.

Seems like the "mutant" in your name ain't a mistake judging from that picture.

oh a personal attack thats cute. talk when you have your face out there. just because a face doesnt fit into your standards doesnt make it a bug.

Dude I see you spam on every post regarding the female-face bug saying everything is perfect and how "beautiful" the faces are for you. People are genuinely reporting a bug with evidence and you are here indirectly calling everyone a liar, not contributing anything to the discussion. You try to politicize every post talking about "beauty standards" and trying to start flamewars.

Just move on if you have nothing of value to add.

Exactly. Seen the same thing. Her and some others trying to gas light people to push a socio-political agenda and thinking it is not super obvious to everyone what they are doing.

I made like 4 different characters and they all did not only look completely different once in the game, they also looked all the same no matter which face I chose. Super annoying.
Also every NPC looks less wonky than the player character.

I am extremely salty about this

All female faces look almost exactly the same in-game.
The Lumos "fix" only resets the face to what it should be for 1 second.
