Mat phong 0 comparison.
Mat phong makes lighting look much softer for lack of a better word overall.
Mat phong disables more than just rimlight.

As you can see the solider looks a bit darker but a bit more cartoony somewhat like the original tf2 trailers.
But many people would rather use r rimlight 0 because it doesn t break anything.
