I will say that I prefer the second shader overall, but I think i might prefer how Miriam looks with the first, if only because the shading seems more natural on her skin. On the other hand, it kind of highlights her nose in an odd way, and the second brings her look closer to the artwork overall. If they can get the shading on her skin to seem more natural, I'm all for the second. However its unlikely that how she looks that close up will matter for anything but cutscenes, and it will likely look different in motion anyway.

I prefer the first shader. The second is actually a bit hard on my eyes in just about every way. The colors and saturation of the first shader are much smoother.

I agree.
The first shader balances the distance and warms up the room with the vibrancy, though as if you want to snuggle with a blanket and read a book in the gothic architecture.
The Second, sadly, I can only describe as "flat" and "dull", I see what it's going for but it needs some work to adjust the lighting to compliment the models.

Well put, I like the first better also, the second looks too blue to me.

the castle will be very interesting to explore.    it would be cool if they make more use of darkness, and using something like objects you can light so you can see the room better, as well as the enemies within .  things like that can add more atmosphere instead of just brightly lit rooms with the usual wandering enemies.    but since this is an IGAvania, it's probably too fast paced to incorporate more survival and exploration elements that require caution and experimentation in the enviornments.

[Lumi Kløvstad]

Survival/horror/survival-horror elements tend to be hard to pull off in a sidescroller anyways, so I can't see that working well in a game like Bloodstained, especially as Iga is pretty well known as a more narratively gifted director than a gameplay one.

We will get a new update soon now yes IGA know what he doing over a year and the game will be in my hands. Maybe this is will be my best IGA game ever. Now is Castlevania Sotn.

[TatteredSeraph]

New update!  It was only short, but mainly introduced a new 'toon shaer' which gives Miriam an illustration look.  Sadly, no background look for it yet, but Miriam looks lovely!

[Dremn]

New shader looks really damn good.

[VladCT]

Man, that is nearing GGXrd levels of graphical wizardry, lol. I do hope that it looks as good from afar and on the environment as well though.

Same here.  I lve the fact that despite the name, it makes her look like a concept art illustration rather than say, an overly simplified anime-esque cartoon character, such as in the DoS artwork.  I hope that the environment with this shader looks as good.

Like I said over at the Bloodstained forums, I was worried because we didn't have a 2nd December update for a little bit, but my fears have been well allayed. This shader looks nice!

[zangetsu468]

I'm going to just say it, her breasts look bigger. Particularly the left.
