Agree you will definitely lose some detail, but what Im saying is that tweaking the visual settings on the game made it look better on my TV.
it may look "better" in the sense that the contrast is not all blown out, but if the black crush is occurring at the "source" (the GPU) then youre not going to get back any of the lost detail...
that is why people are arguing for MS to "fix" this issue (and their FUBAR gamma curve)...while MS may prefer the gamma curve they currently use, its not accurate. You can achieve the same "pop" with the settings on your TV, but you can't undo whats lost in the rendering process inside the Xbone...
look, i understand that people like the "pop" i have my TV calibrated with a slight over saturation and contrast slightly higher than ideal because i too like how it looks...but the way the Xbone does this actually does destroy the image...
the easiest way for MS to fix this is quite simple. leave the default setting the way it is. Obviously they have some evidence (focus groups, whatever) that indicates people like the "pop," so let it stay...then, in the display settings give us a "natural gamma" setting that adjusts the gamma curve to the proper levels..that way they people that are oblivious, stay oblivious and get to enjoy their "pop." And the rest of us can have the natural more accurate colors we want...
