Basically, if you set effects to limited (or none), it's not that bad.
That effect is BRUTAL on the eyes. It seriously does need to be changed. I swapped my settings around to limit it for that fight but man oh man, not sure how that made it past quality control.
Side Note: It's the only fight that I've had to adjust my settings for so far; which to me is stupid. I have to go in and muck with settings for that fight, and then re-adjust them back after. Please change this SE. :/
I don't suffer from Epilepsy or anything of the like but that particular moment in the fight is painful on the eyes. There is so much just bursting out that I have to squint or even look away due to the sheer bombasity of the effects.
