I'm not like these other savages, Haynar, I'm not so addled with ADHD that I need to keep EverQuest in a window in the corner of my screen while I watch a movie and browse Facebook while Skyping my nephew on a separate monitor.
I'm pretty sure what the pages of this thread is telling Haynar is that different systems with different cards, drivers, and operating systems are having different results with how much is changed with this patch involving the darkness and gamma.

And you have absolutely zero (0) clue if the people reporting back are using windowed mode while dealing with a crap darkened UI + chat lettering or not. I personally use full screen on two different machines, with Win 7 + GTX 750 ti sc card on one and Win XP SP3 + GT 620 on the other, and I'm getting shit on both.

Using F.lux results in getting some of my UI and lettering to look halfways normal, but it still looks like complete ass. And it's NOT classic in tint or brightness.

All of that said, if there's something unique that people are doing with their machines that lessen the effect to make it look like classic, I'm all ears to try it.

Edit - both machines and their cards were updated to the latest November 2014 drivers. It didn't help.
