i have needed to do conscious effort to not think too much of the topic:

some places in the world have become so hecking dark.
maybe that new lighting fits balmung's quicksand, but guys... i admit i tried to be light hearted about this graph update, but i really think it gave the aesthetics of the game unfortunate downgrade.

link to something, because this forum makes me think of +10 year old explaining game design to kids flavour of videos all the time...
