Costume: Tiny Mode

[chuckv3]

I really dislike how dwarvishly distorted Costume: Mini Mode looks. I'd like to suggest a Tiny Mode, with same proportions as normal size, just shrunk across the board to 1/3 or 1/4 size. My TinkerBell character looks right at normal size, but looks utterly stupid in mini mode. If she was just 1/3 or 1/4 the size and looked the same it would be PERFECT! From a code perspective it wouldn't require much work I suspect. I also wouldn't mind of the combat / collision box was normal size -- I'm doing this for the character concept, not to try to get some kind of combat advantage.

 

Thanks for considering!

I believe the original reasoning of why there was never a proportional mini-mode stemming from Baby New Year from having a bobble head, was to prevent children being portrayed in violent games. Even Penelope Yen is still a tween. I used to have links to many of the applicable laws because I used to QA games, but it's still in a box after my move. Similar reason as to why enemies collapse and fade away rather than gushing fountains of blood (except on my Water/Poison Corruptor which everything gushes in a fountain of blood.) Although the ragdoll physics when they collapse can sometime end up much worse, cringe-worthy positions.

Our ability to beat up well-nigh-endless hordes of what are explicitly called out as "immature Paragon Protectors" in one of the recent arc additions makes me doubt that the MiniMe's bobbleheadedness had much to do with the Homecoming devs wanting to avoid putting what might be mistaken for childlike pixels in potentially violent situations. 😝
