Opinions on how TCR & FG are dealing with AAMFP criticism

All this talk about the blue filter confounds me. After the mansion, the filter disappeared for me and the darkness was pure black - a shade far more unsettling than even the blackest moments of the original Amnesia.

To be fair, this blue filter returns in the ending, which can justified by the frozen nature of the area. But the sewers, the interior of the Machine, the underground segments? Couldn't see a damned thing.
