Yet, I have my TV on 70 percent brightness, and my game on the normal brightness, and when I go through 90 percent oif the caves / dungeons, i cant see 2 ft in front of me. For example, the cave right next to Riverwood, on the way from Helgen, I took all the torches down, and had to squint to even make out the ground beneath me.....or walking from Riverwood to Solitude, its so dark at the moment, I actually had to pull out a torch. Did they darken up the game in recent updates, or what? Also, I was recently walking passed a house when it was night time, and the moon was hitting the backside of the house, casting a shadow and when i walked into the shadow of that house, it was dark as dark can be.

Is your room dark enough?
On day time I have to shut the window completely to be able to see in-game in the dark.

Oh I have no problem with how dark it is, but I see a lot of people complaining that its not dark enough at times, while i understand that some caves, are not dark enough, the majority are quite dark. I love how dark most of the dungeons are, especially wiht my thief i am recently using .

Do you have Dawnguard? Once I downloaded Dawnguard I noticed that the game seemed to be " darker " in respect to caves,dungeons etc...etc... It doesn't seem to be over done but just enough to make the game world darker when it's night or when in an enclosed area like a cave. Not complaining or anything, I like the fact that it seems to have gotten darker. Really makes traveling at night a little more interesting

Hooray! I thought I was just seeing things, but yeah, I definitely noticed that after I downloaded DG the game seemed to be darker in general. It seems perfect now.

My only problem with the dark is that it goes almost pitch black after looking at/near a light source, it might add a sense of realism but i spend most time against fire breathing dragons running around in circles completely blind.
