I've currently only seen this in outdoor shadow missions, but after 6pm to about 12am in game time, it gets really dark as if there is no Brightness.
My Brightness settings are set to .50

    I don't know if that's related to this, but its unusually dark in dungeons too

    Wait... How did you zoom out so much in a dungeon? I didn't know it's possible :o

    I'd like to say at max brightness it is still too dark, same with the outdoor dungeons... Its my biggest complaint, second to the trees and walls in Fiodh and Taill shadow missions... That could partially be due to the expanded zoom....

    EDIT: honestly, adjusting my brightness in game seems to do nothing; is it possible there is an issue there in game options on dev side, or could that be due to my PC settings?

    I believe I've figured it out. If the Christmas effects fails to appear, it'll leave the area really dark.
    This appears to be random.

    You might want to try expanding the ranged vision some more as well...and uncheck the "film style post shader" if you haven't already even thought that adds some depth....i find it kind of dark and dreary.

    I had this issue on my old PC it was such a pain couldn't see in dungeons at all when it happened randomly!The only way i was able to fix it was running the default.reg in the mabinogi folder.

    This is not about actual brightness in game. It's a bug that's happening by Snow Effect event.

    Happens to me too. I suspect it may only happen to Nvidia users. Totally black shadow missions no matter what I try. Only when it stops snowing while in an SM. Hopefully they'll turn off the snow soon.

    Have you also tried to toggle full screen to window mode? Sometimes that helps because window mode can't have the same capabilities as full screen and it auto adjusts sometimes. The adjustments at times do not fix themselves once you select them and re-launch the game. Hope you can get it lightened up. I know I had this problem on the older versions as well and I forget how to fix it...if these tips don't help any.

    *I usually play in window mode and pull the game screen to fit my whole screen...or most of it anyways. *
