Dawntrail Graphics Update - Eye Strain

[Ceridwenae]

Hey, thread! Back to the front page, I still have a migraine.

And back to page 1. Still haven't been able to do ANY 7.1 content besides the new society quests. So no alliance raid and no new dungeon, MSQ is still sitting around in ghosting city (blur edition). I don't even want to cap my weekly tomes anymore either. If I am online then most of the time I am tabbed out of the game anyways because it is still unplayable to some degree.

Got Weeping City of Mhach for my Alliance raid today and my god. I have not been in there in a long time but I got really bad vertigo in Ozma. I think it's again an issue of the brights being too bright, and it's so perplexing, the skybox looks so much worst than it use to. Shame I thought it was so pretty.

Back to the front page.

Please add an on/off toggle for the new wind effects when flying! They're distracting and cause eye strain, especially during any other weather than clear skies.

Going to let my sub run out in a few days since I think it's not worth it to pay for a game where I can't play most of the content and classes without getting headaches and eye strain.

My mom gets ocular migraines from glare. She eventually went to an optometrist to get glasses to deal with it. She doesn’t play this game anymore but the glasses took care of outdoor and PC glare issues, which reduced her headaches.

Well I still can't play.
I have gone through every setting available in game, trying different things. But after about 15 minutes of play I can feel a migraine starting.

Please SE, at least give us the option to turn off things like bloom!

I thought I was going crazy or summed it up to the weather changing for my increase in minor headaches.
Maybe the graphics update is the reason why (came back recently after months of not playing). Interesting.

So, umm ...... Yeah. (bump)

Been playing Infinity Nikki for a week, forgot to even log in to do my weeklies. It doesn't give me motion sickness or eye strain and it's beautiful... And free. I don't much care for the F2P model but I am regretting reuping my sub at this point, even though a few things were fixed it's not enough.
Friend wants to come back and do the Starlight event but the game still makes her ill just walking around the cities (she has a free trial account.) Can't justify $15 to make her sick. Really wish we'd just get some acknowledgement or plan of action.

What I noticed when the stutter after brief gameplay started with me, was that I got a new monitor. Capable of 1920x1080 resolution. I am wondering if FF14 is one of those games that can't handle anything past the 1600 range of resolution without a memory leak of some sort? I mean, I got a bud with a top tier gaming PC having such issues. Maybe if I lower the resolution to the config's high default, or change the default in the config... Either way they need to fix this. Still.
