I tried everything, PS4 and PC hooked up to my Philips 55 oled 4k tv. HDR is just broken in this game. There is no setting that will make it look even close to good.
So i've put the max nits to my TV's specification which is 400. Anything above that does nothing anyway. The only thing that i can change is Midpoints with absolute no image reference of what's happening here. 1 is too dark, 2 is too bright, anytime i think i find a soft spot i move to another area in the game and i have to set it all over again.
I have been so frustrated the past 2 days to the point that i even thought of buying a new TV. I've watched countless youtube videos on how to calibrate it, read different articles, calibrated my TV based on various guides but nothing really set right to me. I've even took photos and compared.
Finally i decided to try out modding and found a mod that simulates HDR. I was a bit reluctant to try out mods, i thought maybe it will brake the game in some way. A soon as i installed the mod i knew in the first 10 seconds that this is how HDR is suppose to look like in this game. Of course this is not true HDR, it's not dynamic, it's just a shader that adjusts the colors too look like HDR.
CDPR, you have created such a gorgeous world, please let us enjoy it at it's full potential and fix HDR.
