Question Dark areas in games are "to dark"

[Ryaxed]

Hello, lately i've started playing AC:Valhalla and i've noticed that alot of dark areas / night time are really dark despite brightness contrast settings etc being up. I have a Samsung LC24RG50, heres a picture to show what i mean, any fixes? images

Everyone monitor is different. I have a Dell TN Gsync panel. TN isn't that good at showing blacks and it is rather bright but colors are great, doesn't have good viewing angles but head on is ofc fine, but after tweaking it is manageable but I do come across some games I have to put on brightness 0 to pass that test (3 icons and you have to tweak till the far left is barely visible).

You could try and get the colour profile for your monitor. May make it a bit better. This overrides your GPU's control panels color settings menu if you have that tweaked. https://tftcentral.co.uk/articles/icc_profiles

brightness will just make those blacks gray, you might want to increase gamma level a little bit

It doesn't seem like my monitor is listed under it unless i'm looking at the wrong section

The monitor has 3 gamma options aka modes, i have it on mode 1 which seems to be the brightesst? Or do you mean on the nvidia control pannel?

It might be a contrast issue, rather than a brightness issue. Have you checked the contrast settings?
I wish everyone could afford and experience the ease of use and awe of oled screens honestly.

I tried tweaking with the contrast and either way i put it, it just doesn't look as it should? the black areas are still really off
and yeah honestly, sadly can't really afford one atm, got this for practically free with some student thing we got
