Its not necessarily the game itself being darker that bothers me, but the fact that it has darkened my UI, and also darkens every other aspect of my computer OUTSIDE of the game that is the problem.

I shouldn't have to deal with a darkened gamma forced on everything else I am doing outside of this game.

this is what my VLC looks like now, just like EQ with basically anything that is dark colored is unreconizable.

I agree completely with this. It's making P99 almost unplayable for me, especially because I like to play while I do work.

This change is implemented in a really really poor way. I can barely see anything, and it hurts my eyes. This really needs to be undone. You're taking the "classic" mantra too far here.

LOL I thought I was just losing it... but did it really darken my browser

Understood that this change is for testing on the beta server, but will this change be rolling out to blue along with the recent Dec 1st patch notes? Haynor can you confirm?

Hope this change isn't rolled out until all the kinks are worked out because the problems seem widespread (1 in 3 messages in ooc are about how dark the game is). For me the game is close to unplayable (super dark, ui is darkened). I've used flux, maxed gamma, have ultravision and light source and it is still really dark.
