Classic Darkness bug reports & feedback

[Danth]

It's immediately apparent that people's memories were in fact accurate and you could see--dimly--terrain/etc, especially in snow-type zones. The "pitch black as soon as you're outside the radius of your light source" effect is overdone and is more nearly similar to rain or a few of of the dark "fog" zones, both which could be quite dark. I say that as someone who approves of getting classic night time darkness correct--this is a tuning issue and with work it can be made right, I think.

Yep! We started with "as dark as possible" mostly as a proof-of-concept. With those reference materials we are looking into reclaiming the dark blue tint at night in outdoor zones.
