Starfield
Starfield is an upcoming role-playing game developed by Bethesda Game Studios, the creators of popular titles such as The Elder Scrolls series and the Fallout series. It was announced at the E3 conference in 2018 but didn't have a specific release date at that time. The game is set in space and is described as a "next-generation single-player epic" by Bethesda. According to the information available at the time of my training, Starfield is Bethesda's first original IP (intellectual property) in 25 years. It is designed as a massive open-world game set in an entirely new universe. Players will have the opportunity to explore space, pilot spacecraft, and visit various planets and space stations. Bethesda has expressed a strong focus on creating a realistic and immersive experience in Starfield, with attention to detail and depth in the game's universe. They have mentioned that the game will feature a new rendering and animation system and will take advantage of next-generation hardware and technology. As for specific gameplay details and story elements, Bethesda has been relatively tight-lipped about Starfield, revealing only limited information during its initial announcement. Since then, further updates or new information may have been released, and I recommend checking official sources or the latest news to get the most accurate and up-to-date information about the game.

I started the game yesterday like ten million others probably and in the very first area of the game where you are in a mine, I've found there to be a very annoying gamma/brightness problem.
First, the gamma / brightness is not adjustable, there is simply no setting for it in this game, unlike most others.
We're in a mine, it's supposed to be dark with few light sources, yet the area is very bright and light grey.
I couldn't get a good shot of my TV but anyway

Turns out I'm not the only one, far from it:
etc... dozens of it

I've tried disabling HDR but that doesn't really do much, and the game doesn't look as good, so I've turned it back on.
I've left the area for now so it's not as much of a problem I thought it would be, but still, I feel kind of let down as it's the very first thing you do in the game.
 
Can confirm - super annoying every time it gets more obvious, which is practically in every indoor area.
What the actual fuck?
 
Just found this group today. My bad (been playing in bits since early access).

I never had those issues while playing the game on my Series X, it could be from the TV but I doubt it (it's a cheap 55", but it does have 4k and HDR10).
 
I found the sweet spot by doing the following, in case anyone's looking to improve their visual experience:
- set my TV to default picture settings, enabling all the good stuff like HDR, "game mode" and whatnot
- simply reduced my brightness level to the minimum value, by default it's 0 and I set it to -5
- it improves things dramatically
- I play in the complete dark now, turning off all the lights
- I have become pretty sure that there are visual effects on certain planets that make things look a bit weird, like on Mars, I think it's supposed to be some kind of a dust particle filter or something? looks like haze. But it's not everywhere. The New Atlantis filter is unsettling at times too.

Overall with all these changes it looks good, can't complain much anymore.
