Something about that face just seems off. I can't put my finger on it though. Maybe it's the pose, or maybe its the expression. I don't know.
That's a craaaazy big set of controls in the background of the 2nd shot lol. It's almost as if cryptic doesn't want to make decently scaled sets, even for cutscenes!
That devblog is great though. That's the sort of thing I'd like to see in future!
