I noticed something odd. I chose bright yellow for the color of my Sylvari character but they change color a lot. For example in caves they can be dark blue, sometimes even completely black, in daylight dark orange. Only at night time they are truly yellow color I chose in character creation (and yes I previewed how it looks both in day and night)
So my guess is this is a bug, and well frankly – it’s bugging me. So here are the screenies so you can see what I’m talking about.
P.S I could get a picture this close because I was stuck behind an object. Make it please so we can zoom in more!
The color changes based on the glow and the lighting. If it’s daytime, and you’re not facing a light source, the eyes will be dark or off color, but if it’s night time, the glow sets in and you can see the color clearly.
I have this issue as well during the day my eyes are pitch black but at night there the perfect bright blue i chose when i made my character very saddening
Excelliate, good point but in that screenshot i was facing a very bright light source – the sun. So it’s always like that. Eye color shouldn’t change no matter what kind of lighting there is, because my green eyes in real life surely don’t change to orange or purple if the room is not brightly lit lol.
Hilariously I deleted a level 25 mesmer and rerolled from level 1 because my eye color that looked purple in the character creator looked pink in every cinematic.
I noticed that, too, but hadn’t quite tracked down when i see which shade, and why maybe. In any case I do agree, that the eyes sometimes look really dark and unlike in character creation.
Setting the eyes to be permanently bright might be the ideal change.
