Chapter 5 Lighting not working

Summary

The Chapter 5 lighting is broken. Instead of proper Chapter 5 lighting with lumen, the lighting just looks overly bright, with no shadows, and ugly. This makes the visuals worse and ruins the entire experience.

This bug isn’t caused by anything, it’s just existing and needs to be fixed like a light switch. Lumen/Nanite is off, someone needs to flip it back on or something. This ONLY happens in Creative 1.0 as far as i’m aware.
