The "45 day limit" has always been for inconsistencies between different breeds hasn't it? So why is it being made a point that this change intended to make the breed more internally consistent is taking more than 45 days?

I think I prefer the new look regardless but it's still an odd point to see people making.

no support. i like the change, it makes the dragons look nicer. they gave a warning in the appropriate areas that this change was gonna extend past the limit because off how intensive it would be.

the whole 45 day limit is a bad idea actually. it encourages crunch. 45 days isn't a lot of time. they wanted this breed out for us for the 11th anniversary, and that was gonna come with working fast.

updates and changes happen. its a game. things are overlooked until pointed out. the staff team isn't magic. they're humans. calm down.

Big support - on top of the change being made so late again when a lot of us spent treasure/gems to put certain genes because of the way they looked, it just looks bad. The wings look like the have been glued onto the dragon due to their completely different color from their body. A dragon's wing membrane [b]should not be[/b] the same colors at the actual "fingers", which are part of its body. Take a look at RL bats: the fingers/arms are a direct extension of its body. [img]https://smallscience.hbcse.tifr.res.in/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/bat1.jpeg[/img] Instead of the current change, the males should have been adjusted closer to the females, to be consistent within the breed. Please revert the change!!

I'm going to go ahead and hop on here to add my support; I liked the way it was before, even if I don't have any completed fathom females just yet. ^^' Edit: I've seen people talking about the bee secondary specifically, and I'd just like to say that it is one of the genes in particular that needs to be reverted. :/ I specifically wanted to use female pose for this guy because of how well the genes looked--now I really dislike the new bee design.

Support. will already released genes that don't appear bugged ever just be left alone? It's exhausting, let inconsistentancies lie and honestly this is less consistent than it was before lolll. Good thing I didn't gene up my single Fathom yet, I was going to get two Gem genes and a Silo scroll for that dragon, don't think that I will now. At least I'll save the Gems... So sorry for everyone who already spent money :(

Honestly at this point, I think there should be a near-automatic system recompense/refund mechanism for the Gems spent on majorly changed genes that are ruined for people... Especially since, yanno, some people spent real money for certain aesthetic choices.

support, this was a weird thing to change and doesn't make sense for consistency. it also just looks worse now. i don't care about the 45 day time limit but i do wish they'd release polls on these things or something... it would be one thing if i was in the minority here but there's no way to tell as it is. although i guess polls would only capture the opinions of people who use the forums. honestly they should just change things that aren't actually bugged less often
