Flickering Graphics

no idea what’s going on but every where i go the graphics everywhere are flickering. trees, sky, ground, everything. i’ve decreased my graphics a few times and still issues. it is really affecting my migraines and as a result am unable to play as much as i would like to. rebooting doesn’t work. repairing doesn’t work. please help make it stop!

Are you running Nvidia graphics hardware? Did you update your video drivers, for instance to run Cyberpunk 2077?

Known issue with Nvidia 460.79 or later drivers. This thread is the primary thread on the issue.

TL;DR: it’s on Nvidia to fix the driver, which AFAIK they haven’t yet, but some workarounds (turn a bunch of graphics settings way down, switch to Directx 11) reduce the severity of the flickering.

That or roll the driver update back.

This. Had the same issue after recent update. Apparently this also happened a few years ago when they updated drivers for GTA.

Going into the WoW Systems>Advanced menu and changing the Graphics API from Direct X 12 to Direct X 11 did work for me.
