Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Patch 6 - Too much contrast on faces and hair

One of the biggest changes to graphics in Patch 6 is the higher contrast everywhere. This looks pretty good on the environments. However, in my opinion it looks very poor on faces and hair. It seems to really stand out with dark hair.

Below is a comparison screenshot of Patch 5 vs. Patch 6, and I think Gale's skin tone seems a lot worse in Patch 6:








BG3 used to have extremely good looking faces in my opinion, and I think Patch 6 lowered their quality.

Man that beard looks... not good. From a technical and stylistic point of view... bad. Didn't Gale have a fuller beard before that looked a lot better?

Agree on the skin tone and contrast as well. If you make a blond character, their hair looks almost black in dimmer lighting.

Yeah, Gale desperately needs a new beard.

I thought it was just me. I played the same character as before, but, this time they look orange in daylight! I mean bright orange. And I just play the default skin. Also, the eyebrows seem... Blonde or something now. I prefer the darker look. I couldn't tell in the Nautiloid the figure was so different looking since it's dark. But the option to change coloration once I see what the character looks like outside of character creation would be nice.

Yeah, daylight now seems to be turning people orange.
