Too much glow

[Jellyfish]

The first pic was from 2013 shortly after game was released. The second was a recent 2015 pic. The added glow only takes away from the beauty and ambience.

IIRC, you only get that glow during certain weather, though. Foggy weather, I believe.

It's the weather.

Fog is obscuring the city, and hence the glow

[Kotemon]

First pic is clear weather. Anything like fog, haze, snow storm, mist, heavy rain, etc will distort light sources when seen at a distance. Like frosted glass v's a clear glass.

I hate the greasy glow effects in ARR so funk'n much.

Fog should not turn city lights into a paper plate that just had a make out session with delivery pizza.

As someone who lived in Seattle for a long time, that's pretty much what fog does. Unless it's thick, in which case you just can't see shit beyond 5 feet directly ahead of you.

Every now and then fog rolls in during the right time of day in-game and the sun hits it all and everything just turns an obnoxiously bright shade of pink. Not a huge fan.

I understand- fog is difficult to render.

Maybe we should just have less of it in general? I feel like Coerthas wouldn't be all that foggy if it's supposed to be so cold all the time anyways.

Err... in what area? I've never seen fog giving an area a pink hue outside of Mor Dhona's Gloom weather.
