Seems to me like 90% of bloom lighting is overdone in PC games (can't really say about console games since I pretty much only play PC). I feel like I should start playing with my sunglasses on. This seems to be mainly related to FPS games.
It's not realistic at all if you're just getting blinded from every angle with unnatural lighting. It's like in a movie when they're doing a scene in heaven and they add all the heavenly glow in. Two games that come to mind are battlefield 2 bad company and counterstrike source. But pretty much every FPS game is guilty of overbloom.
They need to do a lot of work on these bloom lighting effects, they haven't improved since they were introduced it seems.
Luckily you can usually turn it off so not a huge deal...I just don't understand why game devs think bloom looks good
I think in 10-20 years people will look back on this decade of games and be like "wtf why is this game burning my retinas"
