Skill Check background darkness and opacity

SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE:

Several years ago we were given the ability to adjust the opacity behind skill checks which was much larger than the skill check itself. On a TV this was very useful, as bright backgrounds (especially fire barrels) made it completely impossible to see the skill check. These settings no longer exist and are fixed to a background that barely extends beyond the edges of the skill check. Bright backgrounds with a dark center equals black dot. The background needs to extend out much farther beyond the skill check circle. This should be adjustable, with a visual of exactly what it would look like in game.

PLATFORM: PS5

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW THE ISSUE OCCURED:

  1. Use your PS5 connected to a TV with the brightness turned up.
  2. Play on a bright map like one of the farm maps.
  3. Repair a gen while focusing the center of your screen on a bright section of the map.
  4. Skill checks are virtually impossible to see as the bright background washes out the skill check circle.

VIDEO:

I have a recording from a VOD, but it looks nothing like what I see on my TV when playing the game. The VOD looks fine when viewed on my PC, while playing the game on my PS5 and TV, the bright background bleeds around the skill check circle completely washing out the skill check circle.
