These have been branded a nerf by the community as fans preferred her original appearance compared to the new.As for whats exactly different, players on Reddit have discovered that Nexon secretly altered Ines Rayas default outfit. Instead of the shiny and glossy original dark black, Ines Rayas default outfit color has slightly changed to a dull grey. What makes this even worse is that Ines Rayas default black isnt in the game as a dye, so its not possible to simply repaint the skin. Save Up to $1,200 on the Samsung Galaxy S25!

In addition to the color changes, eagle eyed fans have noticed a difference regarding Ines Rayas body proportions. Per the community, Ines Rayas glutes have received a serious downgrade, and this is the most devastating nerf delivered by Nexon. While its possible the size of Ines Rayas glutes have been decreased, the most likely explanation is that its an illusion caused by the color change and lighting.Responding to the nerf on Reddit, a lot of players are not happy. There are many comments such as, Terrible decision. It should be reverted, as well as fans calling it a serious downgrade from the concept art. Others have pointed out that its also probably why her butt looked off when I was playing as her today. Must-Listen: Publishing Manor Lords w/ Joe Robinson VideoGamer Podcast Listen Now Everyone agrees its a baffling change that doesnt look better than the original. It wasnt included in the 1.2.6 patch notes, and Nexon hasnt provided an explanation as for why they altered the color. One user tried to rationalize it as the original black outfit possibly not having any contrast with any other accents on the skin, but, even if thats the reason, the original look was still much better.Others are more sceptical with their reasoning. There are accusations that Nexon changed the outfit so players purchase black dye to get as close to the original glossy look as possible, seeing as the color isnt available as a dye.Regardless of Nexons reason, fans are encouraging players to ask the developer to revert the change during the livestream scheduled for February 13th. Theres no guarantee Nexon will respond to the request, but hopefully they do as they have been very flexible and accommodating to fans in the past.For more The First Descendant, check outeverything we know about Season 3including release date, new character, next Fellow, new features, and more.The First DescendantPlatform(s):PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series XGenre(s):Action, Adventure, RPG5VideoGamerRelated TopicsThe First Descendant Subscribe to our newsletters!By subscribing, you agree to our Privacy Policy and may receive occasional deal communications; you can unsubscribe anytime.Share
