A more cinematic feel for your space explorations with less cartoonishly vibrant colors and with more bloom and lens effects. Depth of field is also present and some extra effects which are disabled by default but can be utilized if you so choose. (NOTE: fps heavy)

*Note you can also disable effects you aren't fond of such as the depth of field, tilt shift, etc. *Note there is a significant fps loss with this preset. A few brief checks through the ReShade menu fps counter shows a 20 fps loss on my GTX 1070 rig though my game is still very playable. I have not looked too far into this because, like I said, my rig handles this game well but beware.

---------- Updates: v1.1 - Increased gamma for a less contrasted image. You can see better in shadowed areas which are not quite nearly pitch black as before. A slight tweaking but still noticeable.
