Worst Redesigns

[Solid Snek]

Damn, they even turned a redheaded character black in this fucking thing.

Yet he's still being sexually objectified and oppressed by the female gaze.

Is that armor practical?! One spear jab to the sixpack and it'll be all over! And real classy, keeping the "pectoral-heart" design; gotta brand Sir Twinksalot like a cow, so all the chick-sisters know it's OK to write slash fiction about him.

It gets worse the more you look at him:
Mismatched hair colors
Asymmetrical clothing
Only one shoulder pad?
The top half of him is over detailed, but then his pants and belt look like they were drawn in 5 seconds in MS Paint.
The design team probably thought, "Ugh, the original looks like an old, gay stereotype! Get rid of the mustache...and make him look like a new, gay stereotype!"

I also hate that they turned the purple chick into what looks like a fat troon. I'm sure that chunky body makes her useful in combat.

Boy howdy those are just the main trio. I haven't shown the many generic side bitches and the villains

Speaking of the villains, aren't they the supposed threats, and that motiff
should also be portrayed on both writing and design? Well...

Spoiler: Old Designs

Spoiler: What the Design team thinks is threatening

Angsty Teenager


Fujoshit with hair powers


Fear the Tranny or suffer her gender dysphoria and mood swings


The """Skeletor""" of the show

 

[Vlinny-kun]

When China got their hands on buddhism, I really think they missed the mark on what Buddha stood for. It's like they didn't do any research on what enlightenment was supposed to be and just threw together a generic happy fat man with big ear lobes because that's what they thought everyone in Nirvana looked like because Nirvana = paradise.

Spoiler: Jokes aside...

This one actually got people to petition to change it back because of how soulless it looked. And what is "Be Legendary" supposed to mean?

This one hurts the soul a bit because I really liked the look of the old design. Now we get boring black logo on painfully bright yellow cans. I won't * RECOVER * from this any time soon.

I'll give them that the tranny-looking(?) character is terrifying, albeit for reasons they didn't intend.

Seriously, the original designs aren't exactly the most memorable or anything, but if I wanted a strong, female character, I'd go with those. They look like they'd kick someone's ass. That goes for the original She-Ra, too.

I can't believe Ecce Homo is still not here:

The original:

Restoration by local parishioner Cecilia Giménez during 2012:

Ironically the original is worth jack shit and have 2 additional copies in pristine condition while the botched restoration became an international sensation.

You kinda answered it already, though. This thread is about WORST redesigns. Monkey Christ is beloved by millions.

Probably the Steam Library for me, the old one worked perfectly fine and didn't hog up so much resources.
Its one of those things that you don't realize is good until you loose it.

Steams also gotten seemingly more and more unstable over the years on top of all the unnecessary features they add or remake.

Don't worry Thundercats Roar knows they're insulting you

The dumbest part is they already made this 'joke' in TTG by making fun of it's at least pretty autistically angry hatebase. This is just the same format but it makes less sense. Who was asking for one character to do flexes in the original character design? They wanted a remake that won't be canned in two seasons that doesn't look like a calarts grad made it in his sleep.

The funniest response I've heard about fat buddha vs slim buddha was from a Thai guy long ago. "You ever see fat Thai? No." That was another way of making him their own.

There's a way, way worse redesign or re-imagining of ecce homo from 1998.

That’s a common misconception. The “Fat Buddha” is actually Budai, who is a Buddha (basically a saint) but not the Buddha. It’s a title, not a name.

Feel free to disagree but I hate how boring the "revised" higurashi sprites look compared to the original. idk I like amateurish art a lot

I'd say the middle is best. It still has some uniqueness in it compared to the very generic ones on the right. The left makes Zun's art look decent.

Whoa, wait, so that Barnyard movie that came out in the mid-2000s gave the bulls udders, but this actual cow mascot doesn't have them? It's like the actual troon lolcows on this site!

 

[Linako 2.0]

A bit autistic but I HATE the new coppertone logos. It doesn’t even make sense because of how swimsuits are. “Poorly done photoshop job” is the only way to describe this.

The old one was so cute. The mischievous dog, the goofy, relatable tan-lines of people who are in the sun WAY too much. The saying was pretty funny too in a cringe way. “Don’t be a Paleface”View attachment 2147151

*there was one before the new one that was decent but I couldn’t find a good photo to save my life. The girl was wearing swim bottoms and an actual shirt that the dog was tugging instead of a amorphous blue glob of Chinese style censorship.

off topic, but you just reminded me of the one time a person sperged out over coppertone being a normalization of pedophillia and tried to use it against us when the drama of Sophia Labelle's cub art leaked out.

Reddit´s new interface is fucking unusable. The site is garbage already but is a pain in the ass to browse with that shit new UI.

Also, this haram lunacy

Speaking of airlines, I thought that Hawaiian Airlines's newest logo change that they did in 2017 was unnecessary. Here's the logos for comparison:

View attachment 2154568
This is the Pualani logo (flower of the sky) that Hawaiian Airlines introduced in 1973.

Here is the updated Pualani logo that was introduced in 2001.

Spoiler: Large

View attachment 2154573

And finally, here is the newest logo that Hawaiian Airlines introduced in 2017. To me, the lack of the flower in the background, and the long hair on the right side of her head being visible, makes the woman look more like a mainlander.

I think the oldest one (the most minimalistic, ironically) looks the best. The detailed face on the 2001 version weirds me out a bit.

Unlike the Cleveland Indians, this one wasn't even much of a caricature. I daresay he looks kind of badass. Much more badass than the letter W.

Okay, that's actually bad. The change is better.

Actually, the Redskins looks more tasteful compared to this. Maybe lighten his skin a tad, but not racist.
