    Totally agree, would be great to access the old backgrounds so we can customise our characters on each screen

    Same. Going to be happy to see Necrom's leave, but will be sad to see Gold Road's leave next year :(

    My Evil Characters disagree, imagine being this evil gothic Vampire standing in this field of sunshine.

    I would love the lighting to be toned down a bit. Or better yet, made more natural.

    Even in the image shown above, you can see a clear shadow behind the character. But their face and body don't look front-lit because of the BRIGHT yellow back/rim light on their right shoulder that is almost distracting, especially on characters with lighter skin/hair colors.

    Usually the Character Select Screen is a great place to take screenshots with neutral-ish lighting. But here, the way-too-bright yellow is actually washing things out and muting all of the colors.

    I'm sure the scene would look nice and autumn-y with a more daylight look, but right now it looks a bit too much like someone decided to set Skingrad in Hollywood's version of Mexico.

    The landscape looks great. But the golden light makes my toons look unnatural. At least the Dark Elves. I would appreciate it if the golden light was adjusted. As mentioned above, it's too much saturation. :/

    I do love the design dont get me wrong but just need to tone down the yellow hues or reduce some of the front facing light.

    I really like the soft glow to be honest. It is highly saturated, kinda jumpscared me when I saw it, but it is really pretty. Not good if you’re trying to take screenshots of your characters in the menu but can always find an area in-game with good lighting.

    This is absolutely gorgeous! I wish we could choose our log-in background for each character, I'd have this one forever if that was the case.

    Legends never die
    They're written down in eternity
    But you'll never see the price it costs
    The scars collected all their lives
    When everything's lost, they pick up their hearts and avenge defeat
    Before it all starts, they suffer through harm just to touch a dream
    Oh, pick yourself up, 'cause
    Legends never die
