      yeah, but that’s a whole generation after this. most games were colorful by then. especially once hdr started to come around.

      games like crysis 3 and far cry 4 really helped break the trend.

      I’d say crysis is almost the exact inflection point. look at it, it still has a lot of that brown aesthetic, but it’s colorful and has bright skies and giant lens flairs. the lens flairs especially became part of the norm moving forward.
