Anounced by Tencent. These also come to the global build.

Chroma Lunar New Year Skin (just a silhouette)

They said January 25th to the China build. I believe these will also come to the Global build around the same date.

Not sure how I feel about the "literally a dragon" aesthetics, I always prefer "Warframe's warped interpretation of X". But it's not the first time Tencent missed the nuance, and TBH even for global that ship has pretty much sailed.

I think having a mix of on-the-nose interpretations and "Be Not Afraid." aesthetics is nice and works fine, tbh.

Re-read the whole #*!%ing sentence then instead of leaving part of it out of your quote

I said "too much" as in Moderators may consider it too much & remove it

If i've offended you, that was not my intention. No idea why you decided to start swearing over the internet at a stranger.. Jeez

I'm French, swearing is part of normal conversations, it doesn't mean i'm offended or anything

I feel like this is more "literally a dragon hunter" given that pelt-less Chroma looks more normal humanoid, while the pelt looks very much like he skinned a dragon to wear.

At the time of posting that I was talking about the sentinel skin, but it doesn't actually change anything about my opinion of the aesthetics. Now that I've seen the rest of it I'll happily skip, sorry to anyone who likes it but I think it looks... not good. Beyond just my gripe about literal interpretations.

I like the skin because it kind of gives an alt look to the original concept Mynki did with the Drac Helmet (originally default), making him more asiatic looking. But I agree it's a bit too much on the nose, would have liked some more subtlety or a more sentient inspired design.

Still, guess I'll take it :p

That's uh...

A very ugly skin, textures look low-quality and very plastic, I am hoping that is due to the screenshots themselves and not the actual skin. The color combo also makes him look like a Toy you get from a dollar store
