What did they do to character faces?

Runefell✭✭✭✭Sometimes your character's face gets stuck after doing a task or reacting to something. I've noticed that after I use the blacksmith crafting bench, my character gets stuck looking angry.
I find using an emote can change it. Using /preen usually gets me back to a neutral facial expression.
EDIT: This might not be the problem, though. I'm not sure. Still waiting (after 3 hours) for the download to finish.Edited by Runefell on November 4, 2014 1:31AMRune Fell- Dunmer Mag Sorcerer (DC)~The Adventurer

I would sooner place an Altmer infant on the Ruby Throne than surrender Tamriel to their capricious whims. The Altmer, the Bosmer and the Khajiit share the common traits of intelligence, patience and reason. We do not seek riches or plunder. Domination is not our goal, nor is the acclamation of power for its own sake. Today we make our stand.

Thebe✭Ahh, I see. No, I wasn't doing anything, I noticed it immediately at the character select screen. Thank you for the replies.0 -
lecarcajou_ESO✭✭✭✭Yeah, there's too much smiling now. And it's a Barbie smile. I could see wading through piles of slain enemies with that grim Conanesque smile on a character's face, but this vapid Hello-Kitty expression... it just doesn't sit right."Morally Decentralized."4 -
KeplerMG✭✭✭Damn it... I thought they were just going to do that do voice-over npcs... I didn't know they were gonna screw up our toons.

Runefell✭✭✭✭Darnit. I really want my download to finish so I can see what my characters look like now.
I'm really hoping, though, that if they changed the facial expressions as much as stated in this thread, that soon we'll have an option to edit our characters looks. There is a bar for smiling/frowning at character creation, I wonder if that has a more exaggerated effect now.
EDIT: Well, I'm in now, and actually my characters' faces haven't changed much at all. Of course, it's hard to tell with a Khajiit and Argonian, but my Dark Elf isn't smiling. I can see her lips move slightly, and there's just the faintest hint of teeth underneath. If anything, she just looks curious, which is kind of adorable. My Bosmer is more tight-lipped and grim, though.Edited by Runefell on November 4, 2014 3:21AMRune Fell- Dunmer Mag Sorcerer (DC)~The Adventurer

Thebe✭My character was kinda smirking before, and now she's full on smiling with lips slightly parted.
On the the other hand, I really like what it did for the npcs.0 -

Thanks for that, Dessie always looks like she could kick a puppy after she's been smithing, she'll be getting /preen from now on

✭I started a new character just to see these new facial animations, and damn they look a million times better than before. NPCs actually look life-like when they talk, rather than the previous up and down only robot mouths.I'm a man of few words. Any questions?NA/PC server2 -

✭✭✭✭✭I have taken to wearing helms that cover the face a long time ago as the toons look so different in the game than in Chargen. Might have to take the helmet off to see what this is all about.Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.
