I think that would be a fun, interactive mechanic. Rogue blinds you, warrior stuns you, sheepd by mage, the screen turns black. Would be a little disorienting when the CC was over while you tried to find the culprit.
I think I hate it.

This is a terrible idea and you should feel terrible. Good day.

Sunday? Or… this a real thought lol
I agree and disagree.
Screen should turn black (or white) when blinded.
But when you’re MCed, I would think your character could see everything… with growing horror at their actions.
Screen goes black, next thing you see is graveyard.
I feel like this would be terrible as well. Being able to read a situation so you can anticipate follow-up CC is necessary in higher end pvp. Comps like RMP would have zero contest because for the first go, someone wouldn’t be able to see anything, register CD’s, or have any clue as to the proper position to take.
Gonna be a no from me.
They should also force us to play in first person mode.
Everquest would do that if you got blinded by a spell. It wasn’t very fun to say the least.
Lol oh yeah… a flashing screen over and over every time your cc’ed sounds awful.
They had that with blind in everquest… Not fun at all.
Instances especially burning Crusade instances would be awful
As several people have pointed out, EQ used to implement this mechanic. Shamans could blind you and you’d be…blind. I didn’t hate it though. I always thought it was a realistic way to do it.
Blind in WoW is more like a Confuse.

Id accept that for blind only. stun and other ccs like it should blur it a little. Sheep should turn everything into a field.

I like your idea better @Nesuah
Poor demon hunters.
I chuckled out loud on this.
Cool immersion effect, but terrible for actual gameplay.

It’s like in Mario Kart when you get the blinded oil or whatever, you really can’t see. I dig it.
Hard No! They have already given every class some sort of almost machine gun stun/poly/etc. If we went with this suggestions there are times in BGs where you would see a black screen for a minute or more as folks chain stun lock you. That would be even more fun than the current debacle.
I agree, but the screen should also flash 597 colors per second, each contrasting the last so that the player can be fully immersed in the pain their character is feeling.
