Option to reduce ( but not remove entirely) player effects

[Renathras]

I'd like something between the current "All" and "Limited."

"All" typically hides the boss behind a shower of constant sparkles and explosions. "Limited" makes your party members look like they're wildly swinging their arms for no reason.

There must be a middle ground. For lack of a better reference, I'll use how things look when fighting Engels in Copied Factory.

Concur. This is the problem, there's no middle ground. "there's no chill", so to speak.

Show all: The SGE next to me is shooting massive lasers.
Show limited: The SGE next to me is flailing their arms and doing the physical MOTIONS of shooting massive lasers, but not shooting any massive lasers.
Show none: The SGE next to me is flailing their arms and doing the physical MOTIONS of shooting massive lasers, but not shooting any massive lasers.

Show all: The WHM next to me is shooting massive holy explosions and having huge glowy bubbles of healing.
Show limited: The WHM next to me is flailing their arms and doing the physical MOTIONS of shooting massive holy explosions, but not shooting any massive holy explosions; but still having huge glowy bubbles of healing.
Show none: The WHM next to me is flailing their arms and doing the physical MOTIONS of shooting massive holy explosions, but not shooting any massive holy explosions; and the huge bubbles of healing are invisible so I can't tell at a glance if I'm in them or not.

There needs to be some option between all and limited where you still see spell effects, but at a reduced level of...presence?

Limited doesn't show general spell effects. It only shows things like party buffs/effects such as Passage of Arms or Sacred Soil (stuff you want to know to move into), but doesn't show the players doing anything else, so it still looks like none as far as the other players flailing around doing nothing.

I'm not sure how to do this other than making the effects smaller or less bright (filter?) or something. Some solution like using the lowest ranks of the spells could work in cases like Dosis, but less so in cases like Holy. So I'm not sure the answer other than that there needs to be something between all and limited.
