EQ Game's color seems washed out

[fare67t]

Ok so, upon launching the actual game itself (the loading screen / character select, havent tested the login panel yet), not only is the game in windowed mode while the loading screen is in fullscreen
the colors of not only the game, but also my desktop seem VERY washed out.
What I mean by this is that if EQ were a photo / image file, it looks like someone turned down the saturation so things are less vivid and bright, and more leaning towards grayscale.
