Lighting in Housing Needs Fixing..

vivisectvib16_ESO · February 2017

Some are way too dark, even with placed lighting. The most notable one is Domus Phrasticus in Craglorn. This was the only house I really wanted to purchase, so you can imagine my dismay when I saw how dark it was when previewing it.

Agreed - Lighting is awful and one of the reasons I'm passing on owning a home at this time.

Domus Phrasticus is super dark. Its gotta be a glitch or something.

There are tons of posts about lighting issues in homes. Not one has recieved a response from the devs. I cant see how they are selling these for crowns/real money and being so silent about issues that need to be fixed.

Very shadey business practices going on here.

Honestly, the more I play this, the more I realize that the patch that was supposed to fix the lighting issues on PS4 Regular (that were introduced by the PS4 Pro patch) have not been corrected. I still have to have my game brightness up about 10-15 ticks more than I used to and even then the game is still sometimes way too dark in some areas. Devs really need to comment and look into the lighting issues in this game, as it's starting to get super annoying.

@ZOS_GinaBruno please advise.

I really wanted to get Domus Phrasticus - and ZOS got me with no Imperial edition, so I'll be waiting until crowns go on sale to get it. That, the lighting going through walls, and the fact that there is a window upstairs where the chimney should be kind of bug me. However, the courtyard is one of the best for your $ imo.

Although, this only bothers me as much as a wall protecting 3/4 of a house (most courtyard staple homes are like this).

The Autumn's Gate description should mention the trolls can just walk around the corner and avoid the wall built to keep them out of the house front yard.

What behind the Rabbit?
No it is the rabbit!
You silly sod you got us all worked up.
That's no ordinary rabbit. That is the most foul, bad tempered rodent you will ever lay eyes on. Listen that rabbit has got a mean streak a mile wide, he's a killer.

We should be able to adjust the brightness of the lights, the lantern of agony only illuminates about 5 inches.

Took a video of this issue. Some notes.

1. Notice how dark it is to start, inside the house.
2. After I exit (15 seconds) and go back into the house (24 seconds), the lighting is fine.. but..
3. After a few second inside you can see the lighting slowly go darker (25 seconds to 33 seconds)... this seems to be the issue. For some reason entering a house in ESO causes the game to recalibrate the brightness and completely ignores your in-game brightness settings. ZOS we need this fixed, stat. cc'ing @ZOS_GinaBruno
