I have enough addons installed as it is, would rather not install another one just to get class colors in group finder.
I like the new spell activation glow, but it’s unnecessary for there to be a cast/channel overlay on the action buttons.
Bump
Hi I’m a hunter now
Because they’re ugly as sin, blobby smoothed shapes with inane saturation, it’s mobile game art design.
Skeuomorphism died in 2013 bro
I watched this on Youtube, but it did not cause me painful eye strain via video. It does on the live game, and literally forces me out after about a quarter hour of play time. I adjusted my monitor - tried lower contrast ratio which didn’t seem to help, then lowered the brightness from 37% to 10%, and it actually made it worse somehow, and made seeing anything but those buttons almost impossible.
Stay tuned as there is a class action lawsuit being formed for this.
That’s a fair point.
so is there a fix or we just ranting?
I honestly don’t care either way. I rarely ever look at that bar. I use the hotkeys to open them up.
Watching videos still doesn’t fix the added visual noise these create.
I have basically all effects, except my own and important ones, turned down/off to help reduce the visual noise of the game and I STILL hit sensory overloads from time to time.
To be absolutely clear: I am specifically referring to the casting animation, ground targeter, the giant white cooldown bar, and the little gcd is done flash on all of your buttons. The first is useless, and just adds more noise to fight for attention because we already have a cast bar. The second is whatever; It’s more noise but at least it’s static noise. The third is egregious because it actively fights the in game numerical counter for attention, color, and space. The fourth is similar to the third, but I do wish I could change it from a golden color to something more muted.
This isn’t an “I hate these things” post (for me at least), it’s an accessibility thing.
Well that’s a garbage take.
I hate it. It’s really distracting. Option for old version pleaseee
I’m sure someone will make an addon.
I am never surprised when patches come out. Why? Because I read the news cycle and listen to maybe 30-60 minutes max of videos of content over the many months a patch is on the ptr. Only surprises I have are things that go undocumented.
Knowledge is your actual number one primary stat.
Bartender is working fine.
You can’t be serious… at least I would hope not.
I dont mind if people want to use this new system, all I’m asking for is a toggle to turn it off.
I personally dislike the procs lighting up so brightly because it causes me to keep hitting Faeline Stomp whenever I get a proc. Also the the weird channel bar on icons covering up the cd is really frustrating.
Definitely need a way to turn this off, this is literally hiding my trinket cooldown and other abilities. I can’t see what is going on. I am sure it’s helpful for those who are new to the game, but I don’t like it. Please give us the ability to turn it off.
Hey this is a massive accessibility issue–I was immediately queasy and overstimulated to the point of rage. There are motion sickness mitigation options for other things in accessibility, please, Blizz, just let me turn off the thirty spinning lights that happen every time I use an ability.
