Anyone else having problems with the light bracelets/anklets?

    I have some issues with my eyesight - i’m quite sensitive to bright lights - and the light effect of these accessories is so bright it literally makes it difficult for me to look at the screen. If an opponent has them equipped, I’m having a hard time playing properly because I need to pay attention to look around the effect and not focus on it.

    Apart from the fact that they are too bright, they are also pretty cheesy looking and not even that well made - the effect looks cheap and unfinished.

    I really like the game, but I am seriously questioning some of the aesthetic choices in the game.
    I wish there was a choice of turning off some these effects.

    Yeah, I was looking for the option to turn off the hit sparks.

    Since Final Showdown, I have always had the light bracelets as a customized accessory :D. I never thought it being an issue for opponent. If we ever in a room match, message me and I will switch costume.

    Are the standard hit effects (counter hit, normal hit, side hit, etc) hurt your eyes also?

    Thanks :)

    No, none of the other effects are a problem, only the light bracelet/anklet. I havent had this issues with other gamer or effects, i play Overwatch quite a lot and it has a bazillion lights and explosions and effects going on, and none of those ever bothered me.

    This one is somehow so bright and concentrated that it crosses the threshold. Led lights on bicycles etc do the same.
