Learned this hard while playing alien isolation, especially since my night vision has been going to shit. My eyes were watering while I was playing, it was so dark

What I found is that videogames, are usually tailored to the eyes of younger audiences. Young adults and teenagers. Typical "playing in dark room with only a screen illuminating" stuff.

As I grow older however, I found that I need my rooms lights to be turned on to be comfortably plsy, with my screens brightness turned up just slightly. I also much appreciate features that help with vision impairment despite having an otherwise perfectly fine working vision.
