That's not the point. We're not talking about actually animating the avatar but the fact, that a screenshot next to a PAINTED picture is completely different in appearance and feeling. I agree with Hassat here that it looks off and ugly.


I don't really understand this complaint as your actual avatar (and the environment) is in 3D, and yet still manages to fit the look of the game.

Doing a handpainted avatar of every possible hairstlye, hair color, skin color, face choice, and beard combination is a crazy amount of work. A screenshot of your head from character creation would be a lot easier, and a lot more accurate. If the artists have done their job in make sure the artwork for the 3D avatars fits the look and feel of the game (and they seem to), then there shouldn't be a problem. Especially if the game does some post processing on it to give a more painted look.
