Less particle effects and more gameplay

I don't think it is done on purpose to block our view here although I get what you are saying. I don't even like the big new red boss alerts but I'm pretty sure they intended them to be helpful. I've heard game designers in other games admit that they do add clutter or places where getting ones camera in the right position is more difficult to make fights harder ("Camera Bosses" ), but I don't see that yet in FF14. In 14 I think it's more just the way they've always done things. I'd love an option to turn down boss graphics.

When the FF16 collab came out, there was a sizeable amount of requests to use that style of alerts going forward, and that's what they did.

I'm fine with them being in the game, I just wish there were options for them. Changing the color, moving them, disabling them, etc.
