Assassin's Creed Mirage might take Ubisoft's historical stabathon series back to basics, but there's a newer visual effect which players want rid of.
The game's visual chromatic aberration effect is switched on by default and there's no way to turn it off - despite it being pronounced and sometimes quite distracting in certain areas. One of the first things I did when starting to play Mirage was look for some kind of slider or toggle to tune the effect . Alas, one does not exist.Numerous fans have raised the issue across the game's reddit and discord, enough that Ubisoft itself has apparently taken notice andOn the one hand, the effect adds to the game's sun-drenched and heat-shimmered feel.
"Dear Ubisoft Art Director, I am a VFX Supervisor working in the film industry and let me tell you that chromatic aberration is not only something that doesn't add to 'realism', but also something that we work hard to remove from every film and TV show," another fan, in a separate thread with over 150 replies."It is a lens defect/artefact that adds nothing to the user experience, only substracts.
Would the game look poorer without it?
