What's wrong with the torch light ?

[Nomad]

I haven't play in a while and now that i'm back I see ugly things... Like, what happened with the torch light ? It's way too much light. I mean you can't even see what's in front of you some times at very close range because it's just all white you know... and it totally ruins the mood. Is it a bug or something ?

A lot of players wants more light. On TV it was all to dark before. Now they found a middleway. On the third patch all was totally overbloomed. I like more the darker version too, but this is now a middleway. Same on Console. I have both versions, because for comparison. :)

Well this really sucks in my opinion... they should at least give us the choice between the two versions.

Any way to roll back ?

Is it just me or your comment make no sens ? Anyway... A pitty really, this actually kind of broke the game for me since I really enjoyed the dark mood of this game. I mean come on, that was like the signature of this episode. If dev see this post please let us have the choice between two intensity of lighting... the original and the new one... it should't be that hard to do.

It could be a glitch from trying to fix the glitch where it doesn't always come on when it should.

Whenever it glitched on me, sometimes fast traveling to another cave where she turned it on made it super-bright, and FT'ing back fixed it.

I wish it was... and it definitely looks like one sometimes, I mean look at lara on the second picture, the light is so strong you can't even see the textures on her. It's like she is having front car lights on her chest. But Mad-Evil-Beavis's explanation actually make sense. So i'm afraid it is done on purpose.

Dammit... It just make no sens... I actually see less things with the new light because what is in front of me is just so white it all looks the same, and everything arround is very very dark. And it's a total mess artistically because we can't see all the hard work they put on the lighting of the environement anymore. How can people be so wrong in their decision and not going back. This is so frustrating... A big interest of the game was in the "WOW" effect of the environment, now all I see in caves is just white walls with sometimes white enemies coming at me.
