    Can we have some colorgrading?

    Dear readers,

    First and foremost I would like to express my enjoyment in the game thus far.
    Coming back from WoW the difference in community is like night and day, XIV reminds me what MMO's were/should be all about and that is having an active, lively and engaging community .

    The graphics on the other hand are a night and day difference as well..
    I'n not talking about the art style.
    WoW is obviously very cartoony and exaggerated while XIV takes a more realistic approach, which is fine that is not the issue for me. No what shocked me the most are the colors!
    Comic back from such a colorful and lush world it felt like a slap in the face, at times I felt like I was splaying MGS4 back on my PS3 with all the browns and saturated colors.

    So I tried some tweaking using the built in Nvidia Game Filter (ALT+F3 if enabled in Geforce Experience)
    As you can see below the difference is huge with zero effort, at least in my opinion.

    Now it's far from perfect but personally I think the more vivid colors fit the game better, just look at the XIV CGI trailers..they have the same vivid colors and bloom
    but somehow they did not touch their color grading profile in game at all it seems.
    What do you guys think? I just hope some dev picks this up, I mean I can go on all day making comparison shots some scenery gets extremely nice with a color boost.
