Art/Lighting Issues in latest levels

Yeah contrast is definitely a thing that the environments are missing.

I pointed this out when the 2016 e3 demo was sent out to the backers as well.

In the 'I am dissapointed' thread I talked a bit about this as well, so for the sake of not repeating myself, Ill just post a link to my post.

Hm, great post sir! I think perhaps you nailed something here. Mana

Ah, that's much better in terms of contrast, so actual value range may not be the issue - but there is a sense of overwhelming frontal light and there's a flatness to the environment, especially the blood lady boss room with the big curtains in the background.


It feels very dull and industrial, like a vampire stockroom training video. Textures in some of the latest areas, particularly wood and metal, look pretty gaudy and mismatched as a result. The older areas like the ship and the ornate environment used for the character shader poll didn't have the same problem. Maybe this stuff isn't done yet, or the new team needs time to match up to how those earlier developed assets looked.

sunjammer, where did you get that screenshot from though? Next to estebant's, it actually even looks like you took a shot and added a hazy filter to it, lol.
