It's most likely either ReShade or post processing in PS + some config file modding
Cheers
No reshades or config mods-- i'm using Photoshop Lightroom in a workflow adapted from one i used for Skyrim--basically some digital darkroom workGPU isn't really a factor, but i am working with 1080p images which requires a bit of consideration.
(would you like to know more?)
Starting with a default Steam .PNG in Photoshop Lightroom the first pass begins with smudging the fine detail of the image. Especially at 1080p this masks pixellation and lends a slightly "painted" look i generally like for screenshots, and detail can be selectively recovered to add emphasis, draw focus, etc. (The photo quality i would expect IRL is out of reach at 1080p so i would rather lean into the lower res than fight it.)
Global color and contrast adjustments are applied, then some handwork (dodging, burning, etc...) to tighten it up (deepened foreground shadows, for example, or local color adjustments). It's digital darkroom work, and pretty much boils down to messing with light Time required varies--some images take 5 minutes, some take 30. fwiw, the "film stock" i generally use is Kodak Portra 400, modified for higher contrast and saturation.
Here's an example, starting with the default image adjusted for exposure:
Then the first pass:
Finally, after white balancing and handwork:
Schieno GD-Q d6-868-Schieno GD-Q d6-868 B 2 a.jpg (33.4937/-159.3805)
and because i can't help myself, a dash of Skyrim

It's been a while since I've posted here, so have a nice unedited shot of the Eastern rim, making my way towards Magellan's Star!

I really like the colours in your shots, dark but vibrant. You have a really personal style that stands out among the rest. o7
Mate that last shot is amazing, game poster material right there. That skimmer even said cheese for you
