Real life lighting does not wash out all the colours

[R for Reload]

As someone who enjoys going outside I hate when people act as if RT is realistic, real time lighting sure realistic lighting? No way buddy boy, there's a big reason why this game looks so much better at night and it's because you aren't greet with the piss filter from the sky light in game

[Sad Yak]

I agree, compared to OG oblivion there's so much less colour in some scenes

[Gigantoad]

I don't see washed out colors. At most I see maybe a lack of shadows because the skylight is too intense.

most scenes.
I think one of the worst parts is light reflecting off of grass make it white.

I play on fairly low graphics so it might be a factor why its not as bad for me, though It does remind me a lot of how washed out fallout 4 and 76 look often.

It's like Bethesda is allergic to vivid colours

I play on high it doesn't get better.

I don't mind when there's a little extra bloom, as the original game was find of that, too.

Sometimes I turn colour saturation up for that old Oblivion feel as the remaster is a little bit less minecraftish in its palette than the original. It's a button click on my monitor so no biggie.

The lighting looks amazing a lot of the time either way. It does have an effect on the colours - especially early evening in sunny weather where everything takes on that golden look, or when it's dismal and snowy and colour bleeds out of the world and bit, but I see both of these things in real life, too. Maybe it's just me, and I need some glasses :)

I don't notice a big enough of a difference between hardwareRT and softwareRT to justify using it outside of the water

Mine does not look like that at all, but I have seen a few like this so I am not suggesting it doesn't for you.

Also, hw RT makes a massive difference in my game, so I think we might be running on different settings/set-ups or something. Do you still see the weird coloration regardless of settings?

[Blue Hasia]

The big problem is game devs try and treat video games as seeing the game through a cinema lens, Like we are watching a movie. Lens flare, Bokeh, motion blur, horrible Dynamic range, god rays, bloom.

But real eyes dont see all these effects.

[catch22atplay]

Yup chromatic aberration, Film grain. DOF, Motion blur, Lumen usually way to strong, Bloom over done. And i really hate fog. Unless it's minimally invasive. For this game i just turn it off. Game looks so much better without it. It can look good as below.

I wish my views were like that. I have so much fog it is difficult to see, especially in caves or dungeons. I tried using a shader mod but it didn't have any effect.

[catch22atplay]

Just add the following to the bottom of engine.ini located in C:\Users\xxxx\Documents\My Games\Oblivion Remastered\Saved\Config\Windows

[SystemSettings]
r.Fog=0
