Preset description:

I used DirectX11 (no ray tracing), Max graphics settings, no film grain, and in-game setting of 40 Brightness. Didn't find too much I wanted to change with this game. I liked the color scheme it has so I didn't want to mess with it very much, and the shadows were pretty much where I thought they should be, so this is mostly a tune up preset to bring out one or two things while cleaning up the haze. The adjustments I made besides cleaning up the haze were: sharpen the image, bring up the color without saturating all the red too much, and tweak the shadows and light levels just a bit (mostly to make the Investigation sector DLC a little more creepy).
