Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

New portraits are ugly

Hello,

After being deprived of playing for a week because of a nasty bug on PS4, I discovered yesterday the new portraits implemented for survivors and killers and... oh my, they are absolutely ugly!!! 😵

The previous ones were cool, very stylized and well drawn, they fitted perfectly with the general horrific tone of the game imho.

The new ones give me the feeling of awful snapshots of bad 3D models.They're not scary at all. The worse part is some are just ridiculous, e.g. The Doctor looks like a pervert who likes to peep in the nurses' lockers room...

Please, BHVR, please, for the sake of our eyes, bring back the previous portraits (whatever version is better than the new one) or, at least, add an option to choose between them!

Thank you.

    I agree the new portraits are very, VERY unbecoming for a large portion of the playable characters, both survivor and killer. (But for many, the old ones were not very good, either)


    SO MANY of them do NOT align with the personality of the character. They also look waxy, sweaty, plastic, unnatural etc. This was a massive creative swing and miss. I do not understand why a company with the amount of resources they have constantly releases very amateur, cheap, and undesirable changes like this. Granted, I understand this is a mere opinion... but it seems to be pretty universal. I'm not opposed to changing the portraits, but why does the community get ZERO say? Why do we not get quality changes?


    So many community members vastly out-design BHVR. The dozens of community made portraits FAR surpass the visual quality of what we have now. It is so frustrating that we get the discount-bin quality stuff.


    While I agree the new ones need to change again, some of the old ones really did need to be revisited. Really doubt they will listen, sadly. I mean no disrespect to the hard working artists and realize the very critical tone of my post... but as a paying customer, this is NOT good enough. At all.
