I find shadows very dark during the day, more so than they would be in real life. It makes anything in the game which is cast into shadow, whether by trees or mountains, very dark and depressing.
I have no idea how easy it would be to set ambient lighting to increase during the day and fade at night, but if that was possible it would make a huge difference to how the game feels.
Do you agree or disagree?

The screenshot below was taken at 6pm in the evening (in-game time). I live in the UK, which has similar daylight hours to Mortal Online during the summer. The weather in game was bright, clear and sunny (okay, that doesn't happen a lot in the UK, but bear with me here). In real life, there would normally be enough ambient light to make the foreground perfectly clear, but the shadow the mountain casts makes it look like it's after dusk.
Even if you have your gamma turned up, it still feels very dark and gloomy.
