The screenshots are meant to be representative of the final product, but not necessarily the real thing. It wouldn't surprise me if they were made preemptively.Wasn't that kindof the point of this thread? Raising awareness? I mean my industry is marketing, but everyone's ethical code for sales differs. I find it odder still that people just blindly accept that "everyone's doing it" because not everyone does, and/or get so defensive of these large corporations, like it's blasphemy to be open and honest, when we all know they're clearly capable of producing better work but churning out mediocre results.
You see it in literally every commercial for food. And also every FMV trailer for a game. And in some film trailers, where you might see a scene not present in the final cut. This is nothing new.
They had to rebuild Final Mix from scraps; it was much easier to replace the models with the more recent ones. In fact, it makes me think the original model data may have been part of the data they'd lost.I have to say, replacing the models for Ansem SoD in one game but not the other really makes my teeth grind. :E
Considering Re:CoM is largely unchanged, I would assume it would have been more trouble than it's worth to replace Sora and Ansem's models in that game. If they could have justified it given the deadlines they had, I'm sure it would have been done.
