Blacksonfive Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 (edited) I usually don't really care about stuff like these... but dude, the previous one was SO MUCH better, the new one looks like that one weird plant vase that your forgotten aunt has in the corner of her old house Edited October 14, 2017 by Blacksonfive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks waaay too much like a chicken. So exactly like default ember. She's a literal fire chicken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.ToastForPresident Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 I think that when Ember first released and people joked about her being a chicken, this influenced someone on the art team years down the line to make her look like a rooster. I think the skin works better as some sort of cruel joke. I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's a literal fire chicken I think phoenix is what they were actually trying to go for, since you know phoenix is a bird made of flames from myth and legend ? Original Intentions aside she really does look like a chicken or a rooster to be specific with this new skin, I really think they took that joke a a bit to literally, with this skin.

Marvelous_A Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Well. How about just go for the original design. It's a Nova-tier deluxe skin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The artist did not agree with DE and DE didn't agree with him, thus they split, or at least that is how the story goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess in simplest terms, I am not particularly pleased with it. It does not exactly accentuate anything particularly fiery or amusing. And that mohawk, man, the dispute over the mohawk with the old concept must have really stuck in their craw, so they have doubled, tripled and quadrupled down on that feature.

Heatnix. Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Oh... my... Gods... Ember... what have they done to you? What did Ember ever do to deserve this punishment? Horrendous is the proper word. It's absolutely horrifying. Whoever designed this should be ashamed... I think it hits harder because of the first design. We knew the possibilities and we were given the worst possible scenario. This is by far the worst design they've come up with: it's uninspired, it's convoluted and it's tacky as hell. TACKY AS HELL.

Vox_Preliator Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 I like it... I just don't get the controversy, it's pretty clearly Phoenix-themed, with flamey bits and small feathers, and it looks next to nothing like Zephyr. And frankly, I was never especially impressed by the now-scrapped skin, and this seems just plain better. The helmet's a bit wacky, but half the helmets in the game are wacky, and can be changed separately from the skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satsuki Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 (edited) Yeah, let's not pull any punches here. The new deluxe looks like absolute unadulterated garbage. And please drop the stupid chicken-head motif already. I mean if it was acceptable to toss Nova's general aesthetic into the trash can and run with the theme of 'Fly-Head plays at Wimbledon' with her deluxe (which was also pure nonsense in all respects, might I add) then at least have the decency to abandon the embarrassing 'bird-brain' aesthetic that Ember can't seem to catch a break from. Are you designing a battle-hardened Warframe, or a court jester? Because looking at that new design I'm finding it difficult to tell.

(XBOX)Esper sparks96 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 funny thing is i know de cant just go back on progress they wont give us the old skin but like hell am i gonna be happy that THAT is her skin the one thing ive ever hated DE for doing and it's making ember look like this .... thing idk 80's punk chicken woman- i get the damn chicken jokes but dont immortalize her with this- give the old concept art a try- didk however you can make it happen, hell if any tennogen artists see this ( and i get the feeling you wont ) make a tennogen skin of her original black, red and white skin ill buy that any day over ... this ( insert derailing comments about "if you dont like the skin dont buy it" - IF ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE FRAMES GOT THIS WOULDNT YOU FEEL BAD ? ) hear refferences to nova's skin from time to time- i get it but it's not as much of a slap n the face- hers is still cool to look at, ember's is just her in a zephyr cosplay and I despise it atleast I have her prime- I was looking forward to her original concept art to be a skin but her prime is still pretty enough for me to just block this out of my mind slowly and keep having fun in warframe and no i wont be some fake jack arse that goes "i didnt get the one thing i want i quit warframe HUUUUUUUU- this is a blow on my day but i still love the game- just a dissapointment in the mix of amazing things to come nothing is perfect but . . .just not happy and wont be about this zeph-ber skin ~Esper sparks96 a.k.a. just someone that wants their oppinion heared beyond a pointless thread post ( atleast if nothing can be done and we get this skin just allow the community to make her original- or make it a random skin as an event or idk something let us have it DE ;w; ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S0V3REiGN Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 The first skin is soo much better, it has attitude, personality and good color combinations. The second one just looks silly, the whole chicken motif really needs to go, its stops being cute after a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heatnix. Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 (edited) Poor, poor, poor Ember. For some, a Deluxe Skin is a blessing. For others... a fate worse than never getting one. Tackiest thing I've seen. Over designed without purpose. Bland. And memefied. Edited October 14, 2017 by Heatnix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
