Reduce higher resolution textures on the Happy Ghast.

In my personal opinion, the 32x32 pixel resolution for the "Happy Ghast" mob throws off the "Vanila feel" to Minecraft and it feels more like an addon to the game. Even some Java mods try to stay faithful to the vanilla artstyle and also stick with the 16x16 pixel resolution. If this is a new direction for mobs and mob design, please don't continue with it. Or at least make a seperate 32x32 official resource pack for new mobs.

 

I LOVE that we have more variation with already existing mobs AS new mobs, but if newer mobs based off existing mobs are being added I think the texture should remain consistant with their older counterparts.

    Its not really a "vanilla" or "non-vanilla" thing. If anything the old 16x16 texture is the one that doesn't make sense. Every other mob is scaled somewhat close to the pixel size on the blocks. The Ghast, however, is 4 times the size of a block, but with the exact same amount of pixels. I too feel nostalgic about the old texture, but now that I've seen the new texture I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner.

    It reminds me a lot of the pixel consistency resource packs from Vanilla Tweaks. They always feel so weird to me because they make the mobs looks way too detailed and out of place.
