You might be.
What are we looking at? I assume you’re right next to a bright red sun looking outward?

The main issue for me is that space itself is incredibly bright. It’s not like it is when you see the footage of the ISS.
I get that a black skybox with some dots wouldn’t be fun for anyone, I do think that 50 billion nebulae are a bit much, especially that big white thing in The Forge that cooks the eyeballs in your head.
I don’t want to turn down the overall brightness, but I do want much more black as it’s easier on the eyes and my battery ![]()
I mean, the Milky Way when it isn’t obscured by light pollution is quite vivid. It’s a real shame CCP hasn’t taken that approach to how the game looks. As it is, the nebulae glow is generally too bright, and the stars are too dim.
This is probably the one thing Minmatar space has going for it. Their red nebulae are pretty, and not so bright as to really obscure the stars.
I mean all the nebulae are pretty, but to actually see them properly, especially in Caldari and Amarr space, you have to turn the brightness way down, in which case you can’t properly see your ship, or stations, or the actual stars any more.
I have managed to make it somewhat better by changing the brightness, both in game and in my Steam Deck settings (in game down, SD up) and changing the contrast. I lose a little Smoke Ring which is disappointing, but I’m no longer blind as a bat when getting picked off trying to dock at 4-4
If CCP were to create a council of players, let’s call it the ISC (Interstellar Council) then they could get player feedback about this issue.
I wonder what this going to do with a computer that has an older video card or simply an older machine.
Which is why I am thankful that I just got my new comp. My old one would not have been able to handle this level all that easily.
Whenever I am in Minmatar space I feel as if I’m in a bordello.
You should know, it stopped catching fire after I stopped using the cardboard box as a replacement shell. It is entirely replaced by aluminum foil and asbestos.
Why haven’t you people removed your LED light panel yet? I was thinking… I will replace the candles with something a bit more safer like canned heat or a kerosene torch. Remember, if the game is too bright, it is the fault of your monitor’s back light panel.

Could you please share the name of the pilot on the right please?
That’s the future, CLSS has the power to see the future.

I am no astronomer, and while I have looked up some basic information on it I can’t really pinpoint a reliable answer.
With all these vibrant nebulae surrounding New Eden, seemingly fairly close, is New Eden a newly formed galaxy? Of course I do not mean new as in just off the production line, but in terms of galactic evolution.
Could it be that whatever mysterious force or entity that created the first gate also formed the usable galaxy we’re playing in, from a vast, unrealized nebula?
That’s you!
You are a nebula
Your corp is a nebulae
The first gates were made by Humans who first came here through a natural worm hole. They brought the tech with them. When the worm hole collapsed. Cutting the colonies off from earth. The tech was lost in the resulting chaos and collapse of the colonies. To be rediscovered then lost again by two or three different civilizations that rose after the collapse. Only for those space faring civilizations to mysteriously die. Or at least not well known reasons anyways. The jump gate tech to be rediscovered by both the Amarr and Gallente.
I think she’s referring to the EVE gate, rather than the stargates. EVE was a natural wormhole, but a structure was constructed around it to stabilise it (unsuccessfully, but still).
Whether EVE was truly a natural wormhole or artificially created somehow isn’t explained, and realistically won’t ever be explained. Earth itself is just a myth, any survey data the first settlers collected would be long lost, except possibly in some Jovian database (which effectively means the same thing to us).
My apologies, I do mean the wormhole that allowed humanity to come to New Eden. The “gate” that was built wasnt a gate, it was a structure to stabilize the wormhole for the mass exodus to New Eden.
I plan to take a trip out to see it soon, probably after this event ends.
