Err, yeah. This is a weird one. So I was playing Cata late last night and turned my screen backlight brightness way down while Cata was running. When I closed it, though, the brightness went back up to maximum. Now when I opened it again it turned the brightness back down to zero.

Maybe it’s an OpenGL context thing or something? Really weird. Anyone else get this?

Hmm, i think your computer kinda thought that you wanted the brightness down only with the game, and turned it back up later.

I guess it’s a feature of your pc?

Yeah, whatever it is it’s on the computer side, not ours.
