Recommended Posts

A lot of people are complaint about the ember deluxe skin.

So to start NO it is not ugly, it looks like a chicken, it has nothing to do with ember yes however the model is beautiful the textures are well done and that we can not say the opposite ....

You remember the old "skin" of ember during his alpha concept ...

Watch:

So I think his deluxe skin looks pretty good at that

at first it was a he, they changed it 


and this complaint is basically dead, people moved on. majority of people hated it because of variety of reasons, it didn't fit, they could've done better....etc. personally, the theme is off and they could've done better, plus I like her prime look better

you can tell that after Mynki left the team, the guy who was the lead designer for warframes, they kinda went a bit too tryhard(?) and went for more bizarre concepts and generally thinking outside the box, to try and fill in that hole he left.....it's just my analysis though

You lost me there when you're fully aware that majority of the community finds it ugly.
Saying it isn't ugly is your own opinion and you shouldn't be complaining about other people's thoughts about it.

So to end YES it is ugly.
That's what I think and majority of the people I know thinks. Let's leave it that way.

Yes commit.

It’s not ugly, and it’s not a chicken..supposed to be a Phoenix 

Also the original Ember helm looks more like the Phoenix helmet, not backdraft.

Some of us(A lot) think it is ugly though, and its not really a phoenix in appearance at all. Even the name, "Vermilion",  is wrong. It looks like they actually mixed up the known taoist phoenix, with a Fuanguang(Which isn't a fire elemental), and ended up making the skin look not as majestic as either one of these creatures at the end of the day. It just looked like a tacky rooster mascot.

Vanilla Ember's helm looks like an ugly rooster crest BTW, not a phoenix. There is an alt helmet she has that is actually called "Phoenix" but its just a generic mohawk. Her Prime helmet is superior to all those(As is her Majesty helmet.), and conveys a Phoenix theme better.

I don't see how an unused skin, and unused sex, for the frame, is really relevant, regardless of how ugly it is. Either way, many players disagree with you on the Ember deluxe not being ugly, no matter if you think otherwise.

Seems to me they started to get goofy with the designs long before his leaving. And he left like what, just last year? He also apparently did designs before leaving. Don't know if Mynki did these, but frames like Harrow, Gara and Khora, actually look regal and somewhat dignified. Octavia deluxe concept is also looking snazzy, and I know that one isn't his.

Original ember as in the male version uses the Phoenix helmet is what I was saying.

Whether or not it's a good or good looking skin is entirely subjective; everyone has different tastes for things they like.

Personally, it is an interesting skin, however, it's not fitting for a Deluxe skin nor is it even halfway up the list of DE's best works.  The community said they didn't want it, DE did it anyway - that's the biggest issue imo.

I posted a long time ago on how the art design pendulum was likely going to swing from Abstract-cool (Warframe's signature OLD School Brand) to Archetype to theme to Whimsical and then swing back.

I think the community has had it's full of Whimsy.  

If Hydroid Prime and Mirage Prime are any indication, Zephyr Prime will be ornately beautiful.

And now we are on track to what appears to be old school Warframe RE-Branding by design with an edge:

Umbras

The game would die if DE listened to the community fully.

I don't disagree with that, but when it comes to cosmetics, they should probably listen since it's a fluff item.  If they make something the majority of the community at least likes, then they'll make more money.   In this instance, not listening hurts their income because people wont want to buy it if they think it's ugly.

Is there any point to that comment, is it more palatable than saying that the game would die if they completely ignored the community? The game was built on the community.  The crowd sourced model of this game is precisely why it has succeeded and grown, honestly, and its the community who have to buy the skin, They are not going to be encouraged to buy something if they don't like it.
