If you are running a mid-range card (like a GTX 1660 or RTX 3060), you can afford more advanced features like volumetric lighting, bloom, and realistic water physics.

: Aimed at the "pro" user, Continuum focuses on high-performance realism. It utilizes a physically-based rendering (PBR) system that makes materials like stone and metal react to light exactly as they would in the real world.

: Widely considered the "gold standard" for mid-range PCs. BSL offers a bright, cinematic look with distinct blue-tinted shadows and a soft "bloom" effect. It is highly customizable, allowing you to toggle features to hit your target frame rate.
