I know all that, but my desires are still burning! If only the modding community would step up, or I knew how to do it.. Sadly I am too addicted to video games

But i've already explored my yard Just to clarify, I don't mean this post as a retort to yours, but to strengthen my first post. Thanks for the quick reply! I just feel it would not take a huge effort for this change to occur, and profits should not be the motive for something so easy and so desired by the community. They should just knock it out real quick.. I mean c'mon. https://www.reddit.com/r/projecteternity/comments/3g0ynm/is_fog_of_war_still_the_same_as_in_the_original/ https://steamcommunity.com/app/291650/discussions/0/618458030674611639/ http://www.gog.com/forum/pillars_of_eternity/fog_of_war_options https://www.reddit.com/r/projecteternity/comments/30rg5i/why_is_the_area_map_so_dark/ All these pages were within the first half of the first page of google results when you look up the issue. It's truly a widespread desire from a huge number of players. Also, it wouldn't kill obsidian to give a few developers the job of glancing at the forums once a day. More patches to come, though. Fingers crossed!!

Gonna bump this one back up. It frustrates me greatly that this request has been made for over a year across many, many places on obsidian and reddit, yet the developers have either completely ignored or completely failed to communicate with the community to implement something so simple as an option saying "enable explored fog of war: yes/no". I have found countless posts around the internet from people who completely stop playing because of explored fog of war. I've played the game for a few hours on a friend's copy, and I can safely say that i will never purchase a copy unless the change is made, but I will buy it the second it is made. I'm sure enough people agree with me. I'm aware that fog of war was lightened with one patch, but WHY is there not an option to remove? It would be purely cosmetic. All unexplored areas still black, so there's no "strategic & tactical" advantage anyway. I can see a tree across my entire yard which is much longer than POE's circle of vision, and nope, the tree's not dark...
