One of the most unnerving things about Escape The Backrooms is the unknown. Not knowing what’s lurking out there or what’s that shadow out of the corner of your eyes can be terrifying. The new update of the game brings 7 new, scary levels that plunge you into your deepest fears. And you’re dying to know if you can remove the fog in the Thalassophobia level.
The Thalassophobia level is an eerily quiet, drowned area with absolutely nothing in sight. It’s mainly due to the fog that creates the atmosphere as you quietly row your way from one roof to another. But what if you can see?
How To Remove The Fog In Thalassophobia Guide
You can remove the fog in Thalassophobia level by changing the shadow quality in the settings. If you play the game as intended with ultra quality, below is what the game would look like.
The fog is part of the atmospheric experience in this game. And truthfully, if you want to enjoy this game to the fullest, we suggest to keep the quality up, at least within the high range. Escape The Backrooms is best with the creepy atmosphere and intended short visibility in some situations.
But there are cases when running an Unreal Engine game with max settings causing a heavy FPS drop. It can also help if your computer is suffering from rendering the area which is huge in this game.
But if you still want to be able to see, maybe just to look at the ambience of this place, here’s how. Look at the Settings and under the Graphics option, turn down the Shadow Quality to Low.
Once you do that, the fog will lift up and you’ll be able to see around you much clearer.
How is this possible? The answer lies in the rendering system in Unreal Engine 4 that ties the volumetric fog to shadow quality. So when you turn down the shadow, the fog will automatically be removed as well. Some developers would do extra workarounds to allow the settings to be separated, but by default, they’re tied.
