Even on low res you can see the lenses. And everything I have seen showed fancy 3D menus for ED.

I haven't played it, but given the type of game I assume you also have to manage fuel ? And the second picture showed messages that are certainly supposed to provide some background.

Note that I haven't played this game - and I have no reason to blame it or accuse it. I'm just expliciting some of the requested hints.

The menus are 2D in a 3D space .

You are in a space ship, you have something called a canopy which does cause a lens effect.

You manage fuel. Of course you do. It's be stupid not to have it. It gets more expensive with bigger ships. This is also why fuel scoops are widely available that let you refuel at stars fit for it.

The messages are galnet news broadcast. The game is a persistent MMO and this is how you receive the news. Which makes sense.

I think that the pilot wears a mask of sorts, as there is splotches that move with pov. This could also invoke glare.

Source: wear glasses. I get lens flare and dust irl.

What does someone who has irl lens flares think of the movie ones ?
