My eyesight isn't the best, though so far I haven't had any issues with the raid itself.
I like the raid's aesthetics - there's a certain haunting beauty to the area which I really enjoy.

- With consideration for player accessibility, certain battle effects in the alliance raid the Tower at Paradigm's Breach have been adjusted.
Having just run it, it honestly didn't feel like they changed a whole lot. I think the Red girl's "cruelty" had the contrast of it's glitchy effects toned down slightly, because first few times she did it it did not bother me so much...but by the end of the fight my eyes still wound up hurting so it'll still be an issue for those with sensitivity to strobing effects. The other bosses and the elevator fight seem the same as before.
Yeah I can't really see much difference. Still has the annoying static in most places.Having just run it, it honestly didn't feel like they changed a whole lot.

Just logged on and read these. It sounds like the modified it a little bit but not much. Certainly enough for me to attempt it, sadly.Having just run it, it honestly didn't feel like they changed a whole lot.

Well...at least they tried, sort of.
I can see how that might happen with the higher contrast and rapid patterns. Even if you're not seizure prone, that could cause eye strain and discomfort.
For now, I'd recommend turning down the contrast on your screen, lowering the effects to minimum, and playing in a well lit room, with enough distance from the screen. Hopefully that can mitigate it. If you're still having issues, you may want to talk to a doctor about it
I tried laying in bed and sitting ALL the way back from the TV during this fight. It actually did help for me.I can see how that might happen with the higher contrast and rapid patterns. Even if you're not seizure prone, that could cause eye strain and discomfort.

Although a bit odd, I did try not consuming excessive amounts of sugar, and only eating anti inflammatory foods. It oddly did offer some relief from the effects. I even tested it on days where I did eat healthy, and didn't, and it seems that on healthier days, I do appear to have less nausea from the raid.
I'm no doctor, but it is thought that some migraines are caused by your diet. Of course mine have many causes, but it is at the very least worth experimenting with different things to help your migraines, nausea, and/or motion sickness. No person is going to need the same alterations to their life. Everyone is different, and I encourage everyone to go out there and try different things to improve their health, no matter how crazy, or odd it might seem to others. Go do you. c:
while I have not experienced any of these symptoms myself I'm responding to bump this in support of those that have and potentially will!
Blatant necro I know, but this needs to be brought up that the devs literally did this again in P3
Red boss on an orange arena with an orange lava wall and an orange sky background doing multiple orange flame mechanics at the same time.
This will be the 3rd time they've done something like this.
Mt. Gulg (took 2 months to "fix")
Nier raid (took 2 months to fix)
and now P3 (guess how long it's taking to fix, 2 months. . . )
The devs need to understand that a section of their playerbase has light sensitivity issues and they're going overboard on some of the effects.
Please, learn from the past and stop implementing things you're going to have to "fix" in the near future.
Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]
