I feel like the Avatars should get a revamp. They look cold and lifeless and stiff. They look unsettling to me atleast.I Feel like a side view would be better.

Side view for just looking at it in the wardrobe or as an actual pose you can set?

While an avatar revamp might be nice, I don't think it will be happening any time soon, if ever. And the reason for that is the sheer insanity that would be involved in redoing every single avatar item in the game (plus all future items as the revamp was worked on) to fit said new avatars.

As an example, there are 2,832 held items in the game that can be collected by any player in various ways. This does not count the many custom items that exist (these can only be seen in the wardrobe if they are owned, so no way to know the actual number of those). Each of these 3k-ish items would need redrawn to fit the new poses. I can't imagine the number of hours that would take for the artists. Then you have to add in the time for all of the other avatar item types, as well as all of the base styles.

As a comparison, for one of the more recent sylesti revamps (the lupora) there were 59 traits to be redrawn for the species. To make it so that the artists wouldn't be double drawing traits and wasting time designing new traits for the old art at the same time as they were creating the new, species awaiting revamp have few to no new traits introduced until after the revamp is over. From the time the lupora revamp was announced, to the time it was implemented, it was just under a year (November 2017 to October 2018).

To revamp the avatars with the number of items that would need redrawn, never mind all of the base styles on top of those, I would think it would take a few years, at least, and would get drawn further and further out as more avatar items are released during that time (it's not unusual for there to be over 100 new avatar items per seasonal festival, and then a smattering more for the mini festivals).

Unfortunately, it just doesn't seem feasible.

Maybe if they just had an artist dedicated solely to revamping the avatars to coincide with the game leaving beta.... but even that seems iffy.

So... while I certainly wouldn't mind seeing new avatar models introduced, I just don't see it happening, sadly.
