No, i've not been in deep space just like you and everyone else on this planet. I'm not making statements how should be or what is the correct brightness. To be honnest i really dont care what is or what should be if it looks good on my screen.That's the atmosphere doing some degree of filtering. The better question would have been if you had ever been in deep space (mening far enough from a star or planet) to make that observation. For all that we know it may be that bright. Still though good job on cracking the code if that helps your gaming experience I'm sure this will benefit others.
Now, i dont know if this is from the visible spectrum but it doesnt really matter for the point i'll try to make. This is taken with long exposition or whatever was called, not too long because it will start to eat the details in the lighlights.It is taken that way to capture as much detail as possible but like i've said without loosing it. This is the reason why is so bright.And this is overall more bright than the in-game seen from the glactic plane.the problem with the in-game galaxy is that it have so bright regions that are completely white, in other words the whole detail there is burned or simply gone. Nothing like this is present in the real picture below. This is actualy my problem with the ED MW, well i have ane or two more but i hope FD will look this at some point in the future.
