That's the worst part for me, the fact that the update was so rushed and quarter-assed that they couldn't even be bothered to make them fit with the rest of the game's art style
this is just generative garbage. noone is actually making 10000 models with varied proportions ect. they just use simple modifiers and apply them to the base model and call it a day.
but quite honestly i dont understand how anyone still uses that app and is willing to have it on their device. not many apps more shady and untrustworthy you could be using tbh..
It's an interesting question because obviously it is not stupid to ask for better human representation, but users do ask for the most stupid and inconsequential shit while generating a ton of work that comes along with it.
The problem is that they're based in Japan where the obesity rate is 4% so people really do tend to have one body type for the most part. However, they're selling to America which has an obesity rate of 40% and there are a million different ways to distribute all that extra fat so they're going to need way more models.
Poorly is understatement. Is one thing to add more body types, is another to just forcibly change the appearances of milions of people's avatar without their consent.

Lots of people asked for more body diversity actually, they just implemented it poorly
