See attached image, upper half was taken during Episode: Echoes, bottom half was taken during Episode: Heresy. Note the lack of additional aurora effects in the latter.
(Presumably this has been broken since Revenant, where the cutscene accidentally displayed the post-crash version of the H.E.L.M., and was fixed to display the H.E.L.M. in orbit again. And no, the effects did not appear no matter how long we waited/restarted the game/replayed the cutscenes)
I understand lore-wise, the Valence has faded since Episode: Echoes, but given this cutscene takes place in the past, before the events of Episode: Echoes and Episode: Revenant, the Valence should still be in full effect for this cutscene.
It's really disappointing for anyone revisiting these cutscenes, and especially for new players who didn't experience The Final Shape campaign during Episode: Echoes.
