Just read through the lore on the official page and you will see what i mean.
As stated before in this thread, if you're going to use the lore as the reason for the wing change then you can use the lore to scrap the claws and the manes. Why would they need manes and claws just because they're in a darker area? The bat wings were a perfect look for a darkness race, seeing as how bats are nocturnal animals. There was a cohesive theme to the asmodians before, and now there is not. The feather wings do make them "closer" to the Elyos, but what's the point in that? They're supposed to be different. Again, why keep the claws, manes, and ears but drop the wings? If they really wanted to keep with the lore, then the Asmodians would look exactly like the Elyos just with different coloring and eyes. I'm really disappointed in the change.

That's all just my opinion, of course. The change is cool for all of you that like the new wings better.
