There always seems to have been quite a strong Yes influence in EQ2's design - the Kingdom of Sky expansion pretty much is a Roger Dean's Yes album cover come to life!Bhagpusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499162165023939880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-49185780197838418142017-07-15T17:03:37.876+01:002017-07-15T17:03:37.876+01:00"A little too much of the Roger Deans, perhap..."A little too much of the Roger Deans, perhaps..."<br />As a proud owner of all the Yes albums (on vinyl, for the art), I get that reference!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13855421288341342176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-62220165706851405672017-07-13T22:26:01.244+01:002017-07-13T22:26:01.244+01:00I like day/night in theory and it certainly is imm...I like day/night in theory and it certainly is immersive when it gets too dark to see where you're going in the sense that I get some of the same sense of anxiety and apprehension that I would get if I was out, alone in a wild place at night, but that's not always conducive to a pleasant, relaxing evening. I think the extra darkness in EQ2 that comes with the rain is a bit over the top though - Freeport in the rain at night is like the inside of a sack.Bhagpusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499162165023939880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-41541190112559180612017-07-13T22:21:39.886+01:002017-07-13T22:21:39.886+01:00Yes, when I found the gamma slider the difference ...Yes, when I found the gamma slider the difference was like night and day!

It makes the game seem more "worldly" as they say. Games that have night plus weather effects can be a bit much, particularly with night and a hard driving rain. It's very dark at night in EQ2.<br />I am wishing I could adjust the brightness settings in SWL though, man that place is almost always way dark.Atherenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773969634802702992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-31760374841774614162017-07-13T20:19:26.885+01:002017-07-13T20:19:26.885+01:00Back in original EverQuest my life got easier, but...Back in original EverQuest my life got easier, but the game got somewhat less immersive, when I discovered the gamma slider.Wilhelm Arcturushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07033496821708933394noreply@blogger.com
