Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think gamma settings will show through screenshots.
Used snipping tool, closed client to check for differences. Same for me either way.

what I am seeing.

Its not necessarily the game itself being darker that bothers me, but the fact that it has darkened my UI, and also darkens every other aspect of my computer OUTSIDE of the game that is the problem.

I shouldn't have to deal with a darkened gamma forced on everything else I am doing outside of this game.

1) If you can read this, your gamma is much brighter than mine.
2) I currently have it set, in-game, at 100%
3) I see black on black on black with a bunch of the same icon
4) No, "just put on Velious UI" is not a solution. I never used that UI, even up until the 2010s.
5) I get that by the time you're 60 you should have some kind of ultravision item or top-notch light source like a paineel key. Neither of these will affect UI elements like this.
5a) I could see "Just get ultravision" as a viable option for raid-level characters, but it isn't good enough, because if new players can't even read their spellbooks, they won't get to a level which will afford them ultravision

My feedback is complete. I'm going back to testing with another EMU character select open in the background so I get the (As I remember it: CLASSIC) shift to bright-enough-to-see.

Mine is pretty much the same as Catherin, I'm currently at max Gamma.

I don't think it is too unbearable, I will say that light sources on my end seem to make almost no difference.

Gamma is incredibly dark for me and apparently 90% of everyone else. Nearly unplayable, would have to adjust my screen's brightness just for EQ if it's kept this way. Please change it back to the way it was before.

Get your night vision spells out.

except the night vision spells don't fix it either, just blue tinted darkness.

Havent posted an image before , does that work?

-obviously not. hmm
-ok working. That s/s looks a lot brighter that it actually does in game. The issue is with gamma. dark is very dark. Its really unpleasant to look at and overall , any details in the graphics are just lost.
