I tried it for the first time, and I just couldnt stand the lighting. I tried making things darker, but it made things worse.

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD NOT AGAIN!

Yes genus

 

[u_neek]

What else is there?

 

[Borys]

Is Fable a RPG?

 

[Monk]

Thanks. I hope future games have the option to turn it off.

Thanks. I hope future games have the option to turn it off.

It's like with all new technologies, people just need time to get acclimated with it and learn how to use it properly.

It's all about subtelty.

Don't turn off Bloom lighting

Bloom lighting is an effect that I personally like...though I know that it's overdone...it just needs to be done RIGHT wich is a problem that all visual effects have (see: cell shading, normal mapping)

 

[Ghost]

The kind of fairy tale world fable has is perfect for bloom lighting, i agree its over used in the industry (or at least not used properly) but fable is not one of the main abusers.

 

[LakeEarth]

I swear to god I got blinded by the bloom of my characters bald head many times. At times I wasn't sure what colour hair my character had because the brightness coming off it was so intense.

 

[Speevy]

Albion would kill Riddick instantly.

I was just watching someone play Fable earlier today and commented on the bloom lighting to myself. Definitely overused.. and if not overused..well.. still annoying and unnecessary.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

can somebody show some pics of what bloom lighting looks like?

 

[VALIS]

Ripping on bloom lighting has become just as overdone as bloom lighting itself. Yawn.

Ripping on bloom lighting has become just as overdone as bloom lighting itself. Yawn.

And ripping on people who are ripping on bloom lighting is just as overd.... nevermind, no it's not. Congratulations on starting the new trend.

go to xbox.ign and check the Halo 2 trailer (falling to Earth), and that is bloom lighting.

 

[dark10x]

Thanks. I hope future games have the option to turn it off.

What is it that you don't like about it?

 

[Monk]

I hurts my eyes. Same thing with the bump mapping in Deus Ex:IW.

It literally causes your eyes to hurt? That's a shame, then, as it can be a beautiful effect...

 

[Monk]

Yeah.

 

[Dead]

I had constant headaches whenever I played Fable....just too much.....

 

[fallout]

Geezus ... you people need to step outside every now and then.

(Although, seriously, I can relate. I get headaches if I play any videogame for more than 3-4 hours or so at a time.)
