    Please stop overdoing it on the glow...



    This same thing happened with the Eureka weapons. The glow needs to be more tactically placed so it doesn't just completely hide the details of the weapon.

    This thing looks like it just erected a force field around itself to prevent me from using it.

    I agree. On some weapons the glow is to big again. I prefer it more tasteful. Enhancing the Weapon design. Not hiding it

    Just let players toggle weapon glows on and off. Problem solved.

    They let us do that I think with the replicas. I'm just sort of feeling dejavu with this.

    Yes, move it into armor. Give us extra shiny armor.

    They did that with Eureka... it actually murdered the armor detail as well on that set when you shift to the glowy bits version. I'm not sure why the detail on the armor has to get sacrificed when we add the glow, but it did.

    Agreed. There are so many weapons I love, until I get the glow on. It's just so tacky and overdone. Tasteful glow can really enhance the look of a weapon, there are plenty of examples in the game already. But big blobs of random emissive particles obscuring the weapon almost never makes a weapon look better.

    The Hades weapons are a good example of a decent glow that they should do again. Same with exarchic I think. If they could implement that sort of glow with maybe little additive stuffs going on perhaps, that should suffice really.

    Zodiac Weapons have the best glow, I think. They enhanced the weapons by adding detail, like Yoichi's targetting ring and Nirvana's wings, even the Lux weapons looked better with it (though it comes from them looking kind of plain without it). Lately they feel like the relics have a glow just to have one.
