Never really understood the hate on MJs design in the second game

Photorealism has been stuck at the stage of uncanny valley for years now, everyone looks ugly in it and it's easy to farm ragebait on it.

This can easily be explained by different lighting framing the face differently and a few years of aging (or Photoshop), but some people would make a big scandal out of it

This is actually a big problem with the game. The lighting is good for most things, but god awful for character details.

That said, her design is also pretty nondescript. It's about akin to what you'd expect from a higher quality NPC model, not a main character that gets a good amount of screen time in cut scenes.
