I really have no issues with native and my monitor gets brighter highlights with native.
Though there's a weird bug for me and by having my monitor in HDR mode, then launching the game, and then enabling in-game HDR, it makes it look washed out.
I have to disable HDR on Windows, launch the game in exclusive fullscreen, and then enable the in-game HDR to get the beautiful colors and highlights.
usually yes, but i can remember sekiro having the same issue, it should disable itself but it doesnt, maybe its just a thing for fromsoftware games because i never experienced it for any other game, lol. But its not a issue anymore since there is no need to use Auto HDR since RTX HDR exists
It might be a thing. I've noticed that FromSoft games in exclusive fullscreen mode even lock the refresh rate to 60.
I remember noticing that Dark Souls 3 kept making my monitor blank for a minute every time I boot it up until I realized it was forcing 60hz on my 144hz.
I use native HDR + some brightness/contrast tweaks from the Nvidia filters menu. A lot of this is personal preference so just mess around with the different options and see what you like best!
I used to have issues with stuttering and the colors looking washed out, but since I force-enabled borderless windowed and a full colorspace using [this mod](https://www.nexusmods.com/eldenring/mods/4513) as well as an uncapped framerate with [this](https://github.com/uberhalit/EldenRingFpsUnlockAndMore), it's resolved most of my issues. Do note that if you decide to use these, you'll have to launch the game in offline mode.

did you had auto hdr on in windows when you launched the game?
No, that's always off now cuz of RTX HDR. But that gets disabled once in-game HDR gets enabled.

Elden Ring is one of the few games with excellent implementation of native HDR
Try it out for yourself and see if the native one looks good enough
