Off is best, it kinda blurs the sides of your screen.

Chromatic aberration (CA) is a "movie" effect sort of that attempts to make games more life-like, ie. imperfect. Many people are allergic to it but it has bad reputation because of hearsay and bandwagon mentality. I don't mind it in Dying Light because it is implemented mildly. I also do not have any problems with eyes getting tired and hurting after a longer periods playing games with CA, other people have problems though.

I could not stand Film Grain effect in Dying Light. This one bothered the hell out of me and I had to turn it off because it was way too aggressive and created artifacts on screen when you were in areas with limited lightning, etc.

I'm exact opposite, can't stand the CA, I used to play with Film Grain for long time, but disabled that as well.


To OP,

Or just google, it's kinda hard to explain but this screenshot should make it clear.

In the above version CA is enabled, look at the sides of screen, for example where the grappling hook is, you'll notice that the gate/fences are weird, and unclean, that's what this setting does. It's best to have it off for clean and beautiful view.

Oh wow, well It seems like when It's on It's just a sort of orange + blur, without It, It looks way better in my opinion, I'm keeping it off.

thanks guys.
