Wanna start a conspiracy about how Cenm0's departure from HG and Shalem getting no new art in the event are related incidents
shalem did get new art in act or die though. but it's not a good sign for future content yeah, characters have gotten new artists before but it'll probably take a while to find someone to replace them.
anyway from what i can gather the situation is that ascalon's skin art used part of a monster hunter creature's render as a placeholder texture and quality control failed to catch the wrong layer moment before posting the preview but in the like 3 hours that wrong layer preview was up people already noticed and now cenm0 has to be crucified to appease the capcom copyright lawyers. personally i hope the concept of copyright law explodes within my lifetime and that cenm0 gets hired somewhere else
