Question Lighting

[Ranger_Vet1968]

Is this just me? When gaming, you constantly need to change your monitor display or go into the game settings and change the display settings every time the game goes from dark (night) to bright (day). It kinda always defeats the purpose of immersion when gaming, not to mention if you get jumped while changing said setting and get killed so you can actually see what's going on around you. Is there any way one can fix this, or will it always be a continuing battle that one must wadge to be able to see in a game?

have never had such an issue.
always setup my displays and leave them.
the same with individual games, just set the brightness and/or contrast when available and usually just leave it throughout my playthrough.

with my television i have multiple profiles/settings for different scenarios(dark room, lighted room, HDR, animation, live action, gaming, etc) which i will switch between when viewing different content or at different times of the day.
but have never had to do this with my PC monitors for gaming.

if you have another display available(TV, etc) try using it and see if you experience the same sort of issue.
if you don't have the same problem, then it's probably just your monitor's lack of contrast.

I use a pretty damn good monitor, and I'll wait to hear from others that might have this issue.

Thank you.

include the make & model.

you also don't mention if you have actually tried a different monitor or TV to see if the issue persists.

Aorus Fi27q-x. I use a PC, so I have no use for hooking up a TV as a monitor. I mean, that's the entire point of having a monitor. If I wanted to use my TV, I would be using the PlayStation or Xbox.

the point is to determine if this is a specific issue with your specific monitor or not.

as i stated twice now,

if you have another display available...
if you have actually tried a different monitor or TV

no one ever mentioned that it had to be a TV.

I'll wait to hear from others that might have this issue

you don't seem to be concerned with finding out if this is a fixable issue.

more just wanting someone to confirm that your display suffers from some definitive problem.

If I wanted to use my TV, I would be using the PlayStation or Xbox.

and there are TVs available these days that are just as good, or even better quality than the majority of "gaming" monitors out there.
OLED 240Hz, HDR1000, G-Sync/Freesync, etc...

you don't seem to really understand what determines a display's quality.
it's the included technology and system behind it, not simply if it's labeled "monitor" or "television".
