About this mod
Remember the updated portraits? Yeah me neither. It's scrapped for god knows why (mostly due community backlash) and ZA/UM never even tried to fix addressed issues. Instead, they cut the whole thing. For me; new portraits were definitely better but missing some elements that doesn't go well with the art style. So I made it.
- Permissions and credits
Installation
Simply copy and paste the folder in the zip to your main Disco Elysium install folder.
Uninstall by removing the .backup from the portraits_assets_all_20cb6ebb4142293ab462ee211f2e2afc.bundle.backup file.
Made using the GOG version, but should work on the Steam version as well. Probably works on all patches but I haven't checked.
LIST OF ALL CHANGES
• I kept the grunge black backgrounds from vanilla on every portrait.
• Adjusted the colours of Intellect and Psyche skills, based on their text colours.
• Increased the vibrancy and saturation to match the portraits with the rest of the game.
• LOGIC, ENCYCLOPEDIA, DRAMA, CONCEPTUALIZATION, VISUAL CALCULUS is mostly the same.
• RHETORIC have new and detailed hands.
• VOLITION have new background and gradient colouring.

• EMPATHY's smoke is coloured like Final Cut, but in Vanilla style. Also added new glowing eyes, it suits better in terms of contrast.
