The new scion picture looks terrible

Like the cover of a bad fantasy novel

I think the issue is the lightning making half the face look really light and the other really dark. It's not thematic with the other portraits.

Please put it back or give us the option, this game lately kinda disappointing :(
The old one was better.
Can't really find Scion's portrait, but can say without looking at it that the old one was fitting with the other non-ascended. It didn't need a change.

Ascendant however... it looks better, probably fitting to other ascendancy classes, but it could use some work, I think. Other ascendancy classes overall look great.
Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance.
Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Nobody complained about the regular Scion portrait, now it's not only worse, it also doesn't match with other classes.
I prefer it to the other Ascendant portrait.

The original Ascendant wouldn't be worthy of a bad fantasy novel cover. Really fucking bad romance...maybe.


Maybe...

I can't stand the new Ascendant portrait... reminds me of a person from real life each time I look at it. It's annoying.
Scion portrait looks relatively OK (at least she looks like herself) but only if other classes get similar ones. Which I hope they won't.:P
I don't like it for another reason: it looks like her eyes are at different heights. On original picture it looks okay because there you can see her head is tilted(is it the right word?). But on this icon-size picture her nose and mouth lines are definitely vertical anв horizontal, while her eyes are not °_o

And worst change is putting almost all bosses in new version of maps into fucking small areas, where you can't kite well or dodge stuff. What a terrible idiot invented that I want say to him: dude flick you, seriously flick you very much.

Idea was right, stuff like that adds drama. What makes it look bad is the always awkward-looking "split lighting" + unnatural backlight that lights her face but not her hair. Go Rembrandt lighting or go home (GGG's art guys are nodding right now and thinking "fuck, this guy knows what's up!").

Also the face of the character, it went from Nicole Kidman to that actress in that "Handmaids Tale" tv show. That's not an improvement.
