The Stellar Blade Skin Suit for EVE that got people talking, will also likely get people killed in-game.
The leaked Stellar Blade demo revealed a new skin suit outfit for the main character EVE. Images and clips of the NSFW Stellar Blade outfit spread on social media like wildfire. However, what people did not initially realise is that equipping the outfit actually punishes players.
The Stellar Blade "Skin" Costume is one of 30 different options and surprisingly comes absolutely free of charge. From the ones we've seen so far, it is also the most risqué - although they have been glimpses of a bunny outfit. So how does the game punish players who equip the Skin outfit?
Skin Suit in Stellar Blade actually disables your shield
While many were eyeing the clips of the Skin Suit in Stellar Blade, Twitter user ScourgeHH was reading the fine print, and they discovered something shocking. When the Skin Suit is equipped for EVE, you will have no shield.
"Skin suits are outfits specially crafted by Mother Sphere. It covers the body of the Airborne Squad Member an deploys on its own, or expands and contracts depending on the situation, in other words, it's a living skin. (Shield is disabled after you put on this Skin Suit)."
Yes, that means if you do wish to use this skin you will be making the game harder for yourself. Beauty comes at a price in Stellar Blade. Interestingly, EVE's physical appearance was based on 3D body scans of South Korean Model Shin Jae-eun.
Is it possible to play "Easy Mode" with Stellar Blade Skin Suit?
If you want to enjoy the skin colors and flexibility while avoiding stressing challenges, we have good news for you. You will always be able to select "Story Mode" as a difficulty level, which will let you enjoy the game's amazing combat mechanics and narrative, without having to face a Souls-like experience. This doesn't mean you get your shields back, but at least it will be easier to overcome.
