    Yeah, definitely. It's annoying and the "realism" it adds seems kinda ironic since Mabinogi is a second person perspective game. The camera is far above the character, so why is the "audience" subjected to the annoying glare.

    Never noticed an issue with it, but if it'd be an option and it bothers some people, it sounds good to me.

    Yeah I think it's time we implement features that cause people to mod in the first place that are harmless. Things like no sunglare, combat power (for funsies), modify or increase camera zoom, change day time, and other harmless mods that don't impact play or cause unfair advantages.

    Yeah and yes I am talking about this openly because apparently they know or whatever. Please implement these features Nexon? Sunglare sucks. Nightime also sucks, you can't see anything. It forces you have to go inside a building for accurate lighting when you are dying your stuff. The camera zoom needs work, it doesn't allow you to completely zoom in as much as you want on your character when looking at facial details. Most of these features that mods provide aid in producing awesome screenshots that we share with others. Those screenshots provide exposure for this game online to other potential players.

    It would be most appreciated. Please and thank you most sincerely.

    Also a lot of people are concerned about gshade and exitlag being flagged. A lot of players on the east coast use exitlag to make the game playable.

    New engine might fix it. Here's hoping.

    Mmmh having an option like changing day time is a pretty big thing though. I mean, the natural alteration between day and night has been around for a long time in mabi if not since the beginning (I wouldn't know). And if individual players could change it, that means everyone would no longer be in sync with the time, and idk how that'd even work. But also it adds a nice charm, more importantly, to be on the same time. And it does effect the play a bit with Rua's bar.

    If its something to fix the trying to dye with bad lightning problem, people have already discussed the idea of dressing room having light, or something. Or maybe giving us a dressing room closet in our homestead that's different from houses...or just getting rid of leases on houses.

    Not really imo, that's what clocks are for.

    Yes get rid of leases on houses and make VIP even more pointless. I swear I don't even know why I bought a year again even at half price.

    My favorite is standing in Dunbarton trying to take a screenshot, and certain angles at sunset or sunrise just flash bang my eyes.

    I admit, it's probably our fault for not pushing for these features to be added. We need to give Nexon a little more credit and let them know about features we would like to have added into Mabinogi. Things like this would be considered reasonable QoL updates for players. Instead people just took it upon themselves to fix these things. With the security updates coming in January I think it's time going forward to work with Nexon more to get the features we want implemented, as long as they don't cause unfair/unbalanced changes in-game.

    Agreed. They wont know what to fix if they are not told. And they have been doing a good job adding more QoL in the past year.

    HUGE +1.

    Ignore the still-loading icons for things, but this is simultaneously a screenshot killer, an eyesight harmer, and an accessibility nightmare. I won't ever really understand why this has remained over all these years... I'm sure there's no shortage of other people wishing it could be removed.

    It CAN be removed, mods have proven that. We just gotta get Nexon to implement that as a feature in options.
