Please add an option to turn off Bloom, makes lighting too intense

The lighting in some places is still too intense, this can be seen on troopers (they basically glow in darker areas) and lightsabers they're too shiny.

  • Lightsaber are SUPPOSED to glow and give off light. Hell, they're actually used as torches in some stories/episodes. The troopers I get what you're saying.

    Not like this. Luke's back is glowing from the saber he holds in FRONT of him. They're better in the previous game.

    Ya that lighting is obnoxiously too bright. Did you try to adjust your visual setting though? Maybe that is problem and is worth a shot to play around with those options.

    Cinematic options already disabled, even Lighting and Post-process set to low it's the same. I think that's a separate graphics effect you can't disable right now.

  • Update. After a little research I realized that the issue is not the lighting/lens flare related, but a different setting: Bloom

    Cannot be turned off in-game, but would be nice to either completely turn off or set a lower quality.

  • The first screenshot is a similar issue I have and is the biggest problem.  It puts you at a big disadvantage.  It's one thing if you're going from a dark room to a light room (whatever that effect is called), but sometimes I see it just from simple light sources.
