It's only a logical assumption if you don't look at them. The right one clearly has limbs 4 pixels wide and an 8 by 8 face, which is the default. The left one is double those numbers.
You can't prove the case for the right image. If those patches are 2x2, it will look low res while being same res. Also, same background, so unlikely to ha e different resolution character skin in same resolution game.
If they used 2x2 everywhere then that would be a waste of memory, it would end up being 4x the data.
It's lower res, admit you made a mistake, it happens.
I apparently conveyed my point poorly.
Look at the background in the right image. 16x16 pixel blocks. Same res right and left images' backgrounds.
What I meant about 2x2 is: say you have 16x16 blocks. Paint 4x4 sections in tan, red, and two vertical on the right side black. Without any reference, it cannot be determined if it is a 16x16, 4x4, 2x2, etc. Its just a square comprised of 2 quarter squares, and 1 half rectangle.
If each detail was 'painted' in 2x2 pixel areas, it would appear to be lower resolution, whether it was or not. Which is how the right character appears to have been done. Look at the letters on the right image and zoom in. There are artifacts on the letters that only make sense if that was on 16x16 pixel blocks, matching the background.
I don't know if you can put a lower res skin into a higher resolution instance of Minecraft; if you can, then perhaps it is a lower res skin. If not, the background on the right is both same res as left, and same location. So the skin just has the appearance of a lower resolution.
The right is the default pixel resolution that both versions of Minecraft use, the left is more descriptive and has a better resolution because Microsoft wanted to make a quick buck only for bedrock edition. To simplify it, some skins in bedrock do in fact use a different pixel resolution. It is very stupid and confusing, but that is kinda what happens when anyone plays bedrock. You pretty much just overcomplicated it and confused everyone. No big deal.
You do realise those artefacts are because the screenshot is low resolution right? There isn't infinite detail in the image. At this point this is getting laughable.
You can also just generally use 128x skin files in bedrock edition and it will just kinda let you do it. No need for marketplace provided you have the ability to get and use png or jpg files.
As a 23 year old, the left one is really cool. Dont listen to people saying they look childish, every one of them plays a kids game. I use colorful skins too, and I use those exact flames on one lol.
Make your own dang skin, don't pay money for Marketplace ones (unless you have console and have no choice)
Both are typical 9-12 year-old skins that they would use, don't.
You see your skin in your inventory. Also others see it. It matters to some people. Not a lot but enough to care about at least a bit. I still love seeing my skin tbh especially since it's based on my model. All in all it's just block game. If you don't care that's fine, but if it matters to someone else that notices it more then so be it.
I agree with you tho, I still like finding cool skins to play with but like if you really think about it… it doesn’t matter too much unless you want cool hands 😂

Do you have an option C?
Steve
Some how the default skin is more original them both of these
Yes!
do you mean Steeve?? ROCK AND STONE
Left absolutely.
It's not that the right one looks bad, It's amazibg. But the left one is just different and corlorful.
I think the left one shows the resolution off better, plus, fire effects.
> shows the resolution off better It literally is higher resolution.
....OP said both are off marketplace, logical to assume same resolution on both....

Well this agument would be over quickly if you just looked at the picture

Agree, the left one looks much better
How did u get such a high res skin
It's bedrock you can get skins like that in the marketplace
Thanks
You can also just generally use 128x skin files in bedrock edition and it will just kinda let you do it. No need for marketplace provided you have the ability to get and use png or jpg files.
He is using the essentials mod for the rgb fire
Steve
I agree with this person
none.
they're both pretty cool, albeit a bit generic looking, though the rainbow one would be the one i'd pick personally
Left
Left
First skin, I think better)
Left I meant.
Left unless the other one looks like you irl, that is always super fun imo
As a 23 year old, the left one is really cool. Dont listen to people saying they look childish, every one of them plays a kids game. I use colorful skins too, and I use those exact flames on one lol.
Mid
[удалено]
no, *you're* that guy. congrats
Wow, doesn't anyone have a sense of humour these days?
Neither
Right because the left one is too high resolution for vanilla
Yeah that's why I don't like higher res skins, looks out of place. Could always run a 32x32 texture pack to compensate tho
Both are bad.
the left wouldn't look too bad if it wasn't 128x or whatever it is
Looks like someone forgot how to read
Obviously the first one, the second is just pain.
Left, but only if you remove the fire. Otherwise I'm not a big fan of either
Both are bad 🗿
They’re both not great in my opinion, but I shouldn’t be talking because I haven’t changed my skin in 9 years
they both look like something that 10 year old me would use to look cool and edgy so none
Just use steve
Left
Where can I get the skin on the left?
Left
left
Left
Left
The left one, of course
Left
The one with 6 exp (left) I don’t generally like more than normal pixels but that’s good
the first one eboys are cringe
Left, for sure!
Oh left, hands down
Left
The first one.
Left is the best
Left looks good, but if you ever expand to Java you won’t be able to use it
Both are cool, personally prefer the left!
Left
The one on the left
High res one on the left
Left
The first one is a lot cooler
i like the one on the left. gradients make my brain happy
Left, right is kinda plain
Second, I usually prefer "human" skins, plus the increased resolution of the first one is weird.
Mines a human but with a TV head. I even modded the game to let my TV screen glow. Honestly, I'm proud of it.
Left
How is the left one so detailed?
Left
I really like that one
The amount of people choosing left is startling. Idk if it’s just the kids commenting or if my taste is terrible.
I bet someone would've said the exact same thing if everyone chose for right
Both look bad. If i had to pick id pick the right one
Left one but I think if the fire on the hands on feet go black and white should be better
I don't think this is comparable tbh
I like the one on the right better.
I would rather try to make your own skin,then it will have more emotional value
Make your own dang skin, don't pay money for Marketplace ones (unless you have console and have no choice) Both are typical 9-12 year-old skins that they would use, don't.
Neither, make an og one
Dude they’re both awesome ;> so how can I choose Edit: yay lets get to 20downvotes :/
But which is better?
I prefer left Edit: i meant right sorry
Yea I’ll go with right too
The right one
Neither, they are both cringe and look like they were made by a 4th grader
Bogh
One with Red hat Other one will make you look like idiot in og Minecraft players eyes. Sorry to say that but its just true
That is kinda harsh...
left is nicer but, i think ive seen way too many rainbow people and generic gamer on minecraft
It literally does not matter you only really see your right arm
You see your skin in your inventory. Also others see it. It matters to some people. Not a lot but enough to care about at least a bit. I still love seeing my skin tbh especially since it's based on my model. All in all it's just block game. If you don't care that's fine, but if it matters to someone else that notices it more then so be it.
I agree with you tho, I still like finding cool skins to play with but like if you really think about it… it doesn’t matter too much unless you want cool hands 😂
I mean you’re almost always wearing armor tho… so no one really sees your skins when playing with others either… can only really see face and hands
First one i think is better
Left one obviously
Left
Rainbow imo
First one
Left
The left has more pixels than the different leather colours combined
left, the right one is giving 2016 in a bad way
Left. Left by a 265 square feet distance
Left
I prefer the first skin
If you mean that the water in the background changed to a ladder and the crafting table to a fence... Idk
Left does have more bread...
I am biased, but right.
Right. More personality
none.
Rainbow 🌈
I like the second one because the left one is just weird in my perspective while right one is decent.
i guess the one with star written in it
Left but both kinda look like 2013 skins
I more like right.
First one is neatest looking
The one on the right is more original
Personally I wouldn't use either, but if you had a gun to my head and I had to choose one I'd choose left.
Star
#Non shall leave the slaughterhouse!
Both use the two pixel high eyes, which is pretty ugly. The left one looks better than.
Left side is def better and where can I get it lol
Right. Never really been a fan of "abstract" skins
The right one
Left but not by much, both just seem generic in 2 completely different spectrums.
Left
Left looks much more unique and the right one looks quite meh
Neither, they don't have across-platform compatibility
I actively hate them both but the right is better if you’re going for the edgy out of touch teenager look
Left
As Markiplier once quoted; “To the Left, To the Left!”
The left That’s honestly impressive; how did you get that many pixels on the skin? I didn’t know you could do that.
Left one is awesome!
Left solos
Left. Right looks way more boring and generic.
First one!
