I don't think they updated the lighting or the backgrounds of any of the scenes. Just the models. I could be wrong, but it very much seems that way, and now that the backgrounds influence the way you look, it matters for the first time.

i DEFINITELY think this is the case and what's causing a loooot of the anxieties because ain't no way

i see a LOT of people who are upset using gridania with the character turned into shadow like this as the background to preview them in, too, which definitely is messing with what they'll actually look like
