Guild Wars 2

Anyone else getting one heckuva headache from the flicking film effect?

Turn post-processing off.

I never use post processing anyway. It just makes the screen fuzzy. Makes it looks like I’m in a sauna or something.

Yes, I know I can turn it off. Thank you.

Still, I’ve never had anything like this ever give me a headache. I must be getting old, heh.

I bet it isnt the sephia, but the sound. THere is no reason sephia or film grain should bother your eyes, but that kind of sound quality being pumped through modern day sound equipment will shatter your eardrums

this is both a ptsd and a migraine trigger for me

i am double triggered v hard right now

I didn’t have sound on but got a fairly strong headache. Fairly certain that in my case it was due to straining my eyes from sepia and the washed out monochrome colors.

Problem is, I play with sound very low or off so I don’t bug others around me.
For me it was the “flicker” in the screen that gave me a headache in less than 5 min.
Games do not bother me nor does light flicker. However that effect did & did it fast.
