Dawntrail Graphics Update - Eye Strain

[Daralii]

And back to page 1. Haven't touched any of the new content yet and I don't really feel like doing so either. The absolute ignorance on this issue is making me extremely angry. It feels like they don't even care at all, "Just stay silent until the problem is gone." .-.

Even people without color blindness/epilepsy/photosensitivity/etc have been having issues with the new content. I wonder how bad it'll have to get before they feel pressured to do anything.

Yea I've read some feedback on the new trial and it's effects being way over the top. I also looked at some vids from the new raids, even tho that this was quite a spoiler but I wanted to avoid the risk of sensory overload and I decided to pass on them as of now. The videos I can pause and look away, I can't do so in the raids themself and I dont want to be carried by others or appear like I am purposefully griefing the party or something. I also had severe problems with the previous trial as well which made me quite dizzy and caused a severe migraine that did last for around 1 day. Also had to skip through the final area and use autofollow on a friend of mine so i can get through the area without having to look at it. I am glad that I am not having that severe problems like others have in this thread. I still want to support the addition of more accessibility options that help to alleviate these problems. I really wish Square would listen more to the feedback and act accordingly before worse things happen... >_>

Just here to bump. I was in the reddit for another game and saw someone complain about getting motion sick and asking if anyone else did...

And of course my answer was no, because FFXIV 7.0 is the only game that has ever made me motion sick in my life.

Might as well bump again for visibility...

Solution to eye strain is to simply cancel sub, don't even bother checking news about 8.0 and suggest everyone to never try to pick up this game.

Stubborn devs have allergy to actually playtest what they implement.

Surprisingly can still post so...Back to the top with you!

There is definitely something... off. I have noticed it as well though I have not done much to try to alleviate it.

I was in the camp that we did not "need" a visual update to the game to begin with, but there seems to be very strong opinions about it. If there was a way to return to the "old", I would surely utilize it.

Back to the top~

Commenting to add, if anyone else noticed that the glow effect around the small aetherytes is not tracked correctly while running/walking? I play on PS5 but, I have noticed that if I'm running around the cities and pass a small aetheryte, the glow effect looks displaced? The glow moves around when I move my character, whereas before it used to be static.
