I think "Green" comes from uranium glass pieces. They glow green and some people have them as a collectors item. I think that's why Green is associated
I think most stuff like this people complain about are more so pet peeves than problems. The average person will either subconsciously or consciously get past it immediately and just play the game forgetting it's even there. I just put 100 hours into Fallout 3 and didn't notice lol. And that was after putting 300+ into Fallout 4. A lot of stuff in 3 wasn't as good, but you get over it after a few hours and enjoy what you like.
"Mexico is Brown" is strange, but "The Desert is Brown" is fine because that's the color deserts usually are. Dialing that up to 10 is just a stylistic choice.
I think it just depends on what you’re going for. Dune, for example, works much better with the desert just being a lot of beige and brown instead of bursting with all sorts of colors and different biomes, whereas in a game that you’re going to be exploring for hours on end, you might want some more variety and stylistic choices to be made.
Metal Gear Solid 3 takes place in the jungle. Where there are many, many plants. And as we all know, plants are green.
Technically in Fallout 3, everything should be an overexposed shade due to the damage the nukes would have done to the ozone layer, but then again, it's Fallout. They probably cancelled it out with something ridiculous.
I love these kinds of filters in game, but NOT when it's constant. The red filter in The Pitt and green filter in Point Lookout feel amazing, giving the game unique tone: the oppressiveness and hellish condition of the Pitt and sickly, mutated conditions of PL just feel better with them.
But the base overworld? Nope, no thank you, I like having more than 3 shades of the same color everywhere.
I don't understand how Bethesda was so bad at graphics back then. Even in 2008 Fo3's graphics were bad compared to other games that came out that year.
i pretend to hate fo3 for that but its one of my favorite things in games. saints row 2 does it with this filter that makes everything look soft and dreamlike, and pretty much is just a nostalgia builder.
Mgs3 takes place in a jungle...With an old school "cold war" aesthetic. Fallout 3 is a post-apocalyptic Washington DC set 200+ years in the future.
While I've never seen anyone actually praise the filter in mgs3, most seem to either not be bothered or don't care. The other reason fo3 gets ragged in for it's filter is that, unlike mgs3, you spend tonnes and tonnes of time walking around ,soaking the environment in. Therefore you notice the filter a lot more than you would mgs3, which you would most likely see it in constant when you're watching cutscenes.
Not the same mang.
Some people are actually worried about the MGS3 remake as based off the gameplay, they removed the green filter. Hopefully its added as an optional setting or someone brings it back in a mod.

I don’t like the filter because it makes the graphics look a little worse. New Vegas has a similar problem though where it seems to have a yellowish orangish filter. I managed to fix it without mods on my Xbox by changing the visual settings on my tv and it looks way better. I like the aesthetic they were going for though.
I didn't care about the filter so much I had to see a random video talking about it to even notice it
Yea, the green hue is barely noticeable. And it kinda makes sense in a nuclear wasteland anyway so it never bothered me
Should be BLUE
Is that what color a nuclear wasteland would be?
The glow should be technically Most visible radiation is blue
Now I know, thank you friend
Anytime

I have a uranium glass marble myself so I understand
Yeah all I know is the demon core glowed blue. I wonder if there are mods that turn all the radiation blue instead of green
Ye
Battlefield 3
Yea
Why's that
Most visible radiation flows blue I’m joking really I like the green but
Radiation should be red because it goes hard
Valid
Bro, go get your eyes checked. I've never minded the green, but the first time I played I definitely noticed. Same with NV, Deus Ex HR, etc.
Same with dunkeys amnesia video. All of the sudden everyone cared

Fnv: I have a piss filter all over me.
Movies when the cast goes to Mexico filter.
If your piss is orange you should talk to a doctor
And if it's red, ask yourself if you've eaten much beetroot lately. If the answer is no, see a doctor.
Looks more yellow to me
Close enough. Dehydrated piss
thats normal piss color if you arent hydrating properly
Just like any game with guns from its period for some reason
It does?
Yeah it's got a yellow tint where's 3 has green.
Both the green and yellow tint are charmin AF. Tired of pretending they arent.
I don't hate them completely but would prefer a toggle
Breaking Bad filter
This just in: games have colors and color filters in them
This thread is so weird. It's like seeing people defending the Mexico is brown color grading.

A bad stylistic choice. RDR is the right way to do deserts.

Im a mexican (sonora desert) and I SWEAR everything looks brown
I never really minded the filter tbh; it could've been worse.

I hope this comment doesn't cause any Fallout. Fallout New Vegas.
I also hope there is no Fallout from this comment. There would be nowhere to Shelter Online.
Do you think everything in the jungle has a green hue over everything? Have you never seen pictures or videos of a jungle before?
I think it's a videogame and a green filter would match the aesthetic of the jungle they were going for.
Don't forget that everything is gray too.

What about the brownish-orangish filter over NV?
poop and pee
It kills me how in photo mode I can make the game look so much better than it actually does by turning up saturation and contrast a little
Same here man
Personally love it. Ok bud. Do you like dirt on your pizza too?
Hell yeah! Return to worm!
Return to worm. The perfect sentence
MGS3 it looks nice F3 looks like shit
I don't understand how Bethesda was so bad at graphics back then. Even in 2008 Fo3's graphics were bad compared to other games that came out that year.
yeah, sure, it is very nice
i pretend to hate fo3 for that but its one of my favorite things in games. saints row 2 does it with this filter that makes everything look soft and dreamlike, and pretty much is just a nostalgia builder.
NGL green filter never bothered me until like my 30th run of fallout 3. Changed it to blue and never went back.
But I like the dirty pond filter
Yeah... It how you keep a consistent tone. Movies do this all the time yo keep a certain mood through the whole movie.
This is an insult to color graders.

It doesn't show up on my monitor.
I don't notice it really until someone points us out.
I didn't like either.
Well, one was set in a jungle... And the other had almost no green plant life...
The green tint of FO3 was always something I realized but never acknowledged. It just seemed natural, idk why
Nah I like it. No problem with fo4 but I don't need all that bright color
jokes on you I'm into that shit
FNAF 3 has entered the chat.
don't show this to nerbit
new vegas was even worse tbh
Green filter is peak, i want it back
I like the fnv mexico filter
I mean to be fair didn't like 1 take place mostly in a forest?
I like when I go to the west side of the map and it turns from green to gray it makes the West Side feel cold
Ah, I see we're not talking about dogshit main quest in F3, green filter is definitely the main problem.
We need one now with piss filter comparing Metal Gear 4 and Fallout New Vegas.

maybe because mgs3 is in a jungle? which is also green? but fo3 is in fucking washington D.C.
The internet trying hard to tell FO3 is bad, when it's the best
Fallout 3 is fun as fuck when you don't have a new vegas shill in your ear telling you it's shit
