    I haven't entered it myself yet, haven't watched or seen the fight because I like to go into story content blind... but my younger cousin who formerly had no issues playing FFXIV before the graphics upgrade ended up vomiting into her trash can that sat by her PC because something made her dizzy... and then, well... yeah... My cousin has't ever gotten sick during a boss before, and unlike me, the kid (kid to me, she's a middling teen, I'm in my 30's) is a savage raider. This kid can take the visual spam to the face and not even bat an eye in ways I never could, but whatever was in that fight made her ill. I'm not even sure what it was, she couldn't pinpoint what exactly caused it...

    She said she was just playing one second, and the next she just felt really dizzy and sick. It was weird... this has never happened before the graphics update, but in my personal opinion if it's enough to make her sick, it's certainly likely to make others sick too...

    I think accessibility concerns with this game can quite as easily be addressed without impeding or stepping on the toes of people who don't have any accessibility issues e.g., motion sickness, epilepsy, color blindness.

    I also think the people that are addressing the topic with such dismissiveness are also part of the problem with quality standards of the game.

    As far as this game goes with accessibility standards, it's probably one of the absolute poorest experiences I've ever had, and as they increasingly focus on flashier encounters and GFX bloat, they only end up exacerbating the issue. - Much so to the point that I feel they are genuinely compensating in other areas to try and 'alleviate' their issues.
