Evaluating pixel art via prints sucks bad, but I'm pretty convinced that this encyclopedia is using an older version of Matilda's portrait. The rightmost part of her hair swirl doesn't quite reach her eyes like in the final, her mouth is a pixel thinner, and there seems to be no shading in the white parts of her clothing. Maybe there's also some different pixels in her eyelashes but the prints are definitely stretched horizontally a bit so i'm not sure.

Either way it's not even the only beta image i've seen in the book, this game truly is something, they must have a whole outdated press kit or something. Like, as of this writing at least, the modern Shining World website uses beta screenshots. It's that bad.

#shining series #shining force 2 #sf2 matilda may #shining force 2 encyclopedia #she looks goofier and like she has buck teeth in the beta portrait. i'm not against either of those things #looking now the collar of her clothes has a difference too #i was hesitating at first because back at the pre release posts i was seeing nonexistent differences in everything #how i dream of getting my hands on actual early versions

“The red shooting star running through the fields, that’s me...”

Shininginktober late Day 10: May Matilda! I like her japanese name better okay, also it’s not shared with two more characters.

#shininginktober #shining series #shining force 2 #sf2 matilda may #2022 #another line from the ancient seal guide #if the drawing had colors it would be awkward as this armor is purple but who cares lol #she's great that's all #also there wasn't a single part of this that didn't give me struggle lmao #the lower body and the crossbow were a given but not even the hair was working man #very happy with the result though #the body is definitely wonky but i expected my first go drawing centaurs to be so much worse

Sheela always gave me the impression of being the oldest or at least oldest-sounding woman in this team, but paying attention, she and Sarah are the two members with the highest voices actually, on par with most young girl NPCs. Taya, Janet and May have a slightly deeper voice on par with the adult woman NPCs (I think May's has a slight difference but I can't confirm due to the sudden storm that decide to boom just now).

Meanwhile Karna has a noticeable deeper voice that's on par with Eric, Peter, and other male characters. So that's a peculiar fact.

Random friend!

aaaand she’s underleveled to the rest of team because i already went and did the battle outside. Listen, the map is so big. I kept going to see where it would stop me and it didn’t. I am loose like a wild beast. I did not remember you could just go straight to Peter’s without a billion side quests in the way. It’s one of the most pleasant maps i’ve ever seen, no wonder Matilda here wants a share.
