Dizzines & Intense Nausea while playing Tower at Paradigm's Breach

[Deceptus]

Did Mt Gulg actually cause problems for people with light sensitivity? I always thought it was just a problem being able to see the aoes against the white floor.

I don't think P3 is problematic, it's just really really ugly. Then again I don't have any sensitivity issues, so I can't speak for anyone on that front.

Putting light colored aoe markers on light colored floors is just as problematic as putting orange ones on orange floors or yellow markers on yellow floors (Stigmascape)

To me usually motion blur gives this effect. I literally cannot play Apex Legends because of this.

After 5 minutes I am suffering.

But I have bad news for you cause there are other instances where this can be felt. Like first parts at the coils or in the new 1st extreme EW trial.

Unfortunately there is nothing much to do. They will not change the game, maximum they will give a warning that for some people it will cause issues. Try to avoid that content and lay down a bit if it gets too bad. Health comes first.

But they did change it in the past. I was quite surprised to see that after the past things that they had to change, they would go for another bright monochromatic instance. I ran P3 twice only because of that. It gives me a headache and I have to lay down after it.

I completed Tower at Paradigm's Breach for the first time yesterday and had a terrible experience. Wondering if anyone else has experienced this.

I haven't had such a severe reaction, but the section with the white stairs on the white background disorients me every time. I've had some significant hits of anxiety due to fear of heights in some of the jump puzzles and Leap of Faith GATE (especially) and have had to stop doing them. I hope you're able to find some resolution to your problem!

Whenever I end up seeing this thread's title, I expect it to be about to story of the Nier raids, not the visuals...

I had to track this thread down to chime in and say that this is still a problem in 2023. I had to ditch a roulette Tower at Paradigm's Breach after the first boss because by the end of the fight I had developed a throbbing headache and could barely keep my eyes open from eye strain.

At least for me I feel like a very large part of the problem is the visual filter that is applied in the "Network Access" areas that the first few boss fights take place in.

This happens to me sometimes and that's why I try to stay away from those duties. I have done a few that give me bad headaches from the flashing lights to them.

Other than that it make me very sleepy just looking at the screen because of how boring the raid was (except the red girl, very good fight), the screen effect and the elevator fight didnt do much to me

Yeah unfortunately this hasn't changed at all. I still need to angle my camera to the floor in first-person and apologise to my alliance / beg my healers to play rescue tag with me for the elevator boss or I'll have a migraine for the rest of the day.

I feel like the elevator boss can be an issue if your eyes are unable to focus on something. If I don't focus on my character or the boss during that part, it'll make me sick. It's a bit like Byakko's tornado phase. If your camera is not looking down at him so your eyes can focus on him, you're going to have a bad time.
