Would a night sky with stars like this ever be possible?

Just seems like the moonlight in game isn't all that bright, plus there is always sunlight on the horizon no matter what time of night.

I think something like this could be done if you could trick the game into using the lens flare of the sun, only tune it down. sort of like turning down the contrast or brightness. Thats how they did it in the movies anyways. Then you'd still have shadows and reflections. Then also the moonlight still provides the lumen it should. Lumen is the power measurement of light, in which a full moon has half the lumen of the sun.

That's because moonlight isn't bright in real life. It's our eyes that adjust to the light levels, and that depends on how much sunlight is reflected back by the moons surface. Some nights are pitch black, others readily visible, but unless you're near the poles in summer night-time it's alwas dark.
