Final Fantasy XIV comes on the top for those players who love to play MMORPGs. This game was released back in 2010 by Square Enix but still, it continues to blow players away in all aspects. It is truly incredible from game mechanics to an interesting storyline to the graphical masterwork. FFXIV has a lot of different player customization options from pets to tiles to fancy glamours to mounts. With the launch of the first post-patch of Endwalker, the game offers Adventurer Plates and Instant Portraits as a new form of player. Unfortunately, many players are currently reporting that they are getting an error “Instant portrait reverted to default”. If you are also receiving the same error and wonder what happened, go through this guide and learn why it happened and how you can fix it.
