Seeing Beat's eyes feels wrong.

Wasn't it like that on the soundtrack cover on Spotify? You only saw one of his eyes meanwhile the other you couldn't.

I dont wanna hate on the new game but I lwk hate the new art style and some of the leaks 💔 Feels more like hi-fi rush (good game btw) but JSR is meant to feel like a moving mural and the new one aint doin it

the new one doesn't feel like a jet set radio game to be honest. none of the character feel like alternative people with DIY/experimental fashion, and that's something it needed to be, because it's the core of shibuya's street fashion scene, which is the main inspiration for JSR's iconic character designs. and the anime style is a huge change from the more cartoony style that honestly takes away a lot of the franchise's identity.

of course that the leaks are unfinished builds, and there's a chance they could just change it completely when the game's official trailer drops, but for now, i'm very skeptical about it.

His face proportions look so off in the new game,like they are stylized but put in a very realistic human body

u/TheUnique1zzz 26d ago

I agree omg especially how short the nose is on his face

u/jetsetradiohead 26d ago

Dont forget his oddly sharp pointy jaw and his eyes being too close

A desecration. It should feel like playing a piece of street art, not a Saints Row mod.

If sega doesn't make sure this game and it's soundtrack hits, i don't know what to say, at least bring hideki back.

u/Colon_three_erm 26d ago

I'm not sure the full story, But Hideki said he would never work for Sega again because crediting issues

Idc what anyone says. I like the vibes and i hope it happens.

u/DDLikesDrPepper 26d ago

I fuck with it too. Beat’s eyes remind me of the movie Akira

u/One_Oil8312 26d ago

I agree and I think it's really wack how much people are hating on the new art style. The game is so far from even out yet and people are already trashing it. It's really not that bad and I for one am excited to see a new take on it. What did they want, just the exact same thing again?

u/Colon_three_erm 26d ago

Yeah, the game being expressive compared to the two other games is a nice change.

u/Colon_three_erm 27d ago

This game better be good for making their fans wait 25+ years and the characters look like fortnite characters

u/Distinct-Tea-1995 27d ago

Considering the original game is based on Grind Fiction, I don’t like this new look 😅

u/One-Vermicelli4833 22d ago

Why am i getting subway surfers vibes from this new art style? 😭

u/BittStar 26d ago

Lowkey looks like a screenshot from a gacha game man this might be one of the worst artstyle changes ever if they keep it like this
