As a dedicated fan, I’ve noticed that players have been expressing their views on Piper’s iconic design from the past, stating it appears somewhat unsettling. A user named Radiant_End_3925 even mentioned, “Old Piper is better than the other old icons here, in my opinion. (That Max icon will be the last thing I see when I die.)” It’s fascinating to observe that Piper’s chubby-cheeked look seemed almost too lifelike. Her current design is more streamlined and playful, but her earlier appearance combines warm, wholesome aesthetics with a touch of eeriness, which gives her a unique place in the roster. This mix of charm and unease strikes a chord—or a dischord, depending on one’s perspective—with many players today.
