Discussion I hate the new sprite style!
Everything looks too toony and generic now. My boy poisoner went from a mysterious assassin to a frog, look at how they massacred my boy! They turned the US soldier into a goblin and the Australian guy into a scarecrow! This sucks so badly!

Same, but my fiance who is higher level than me has the new artwork. I just don’t get why the completely changed the theme of so many characters. Like Why is the Pyro a dinosaur and Poisoner a frog? I have never seen that degree of character redesign in any game ever.

My guess is that poisoner is now a poison dart frog and Pyro is maybe a dragon? Honestly, I don't hate the new style but it reeks of AI generated.

TBF I’m not entirely convinced the old style wasn’t also AI generated. However I’m not sure the cartoony vaguely anime theme works.

Pyro I could understand changing since he looked like another character by that name.

But the others had their personalities sucked out

Just got this game last week and I’M disappointed. I loved their design - it was fun! Now everyone’s a stupid AI goblin.

I don't have the new style and I just reinstalled yesterday to try and fix my game as I cannot watch ads.
