Young Wizard,
Please see the 'World a Little Too Bright?' post at the top of the Halston's Laboratory section of these message boards

If you've logged in after the update and the world seems a little brighter, maybe too bright, please check your Bloom settings in the Options Panel (press ESC and select the second tab).

What does the "bloom" do? I have now turned my off and hope this helps in the ice area of Ravenscar. I can barely see there. It is pretty awful. (I am on a laptop.)

other than the round about answer from KI, just go to the advance video settings, and turn off Bloom

I have done the test realm many times, and each time I put in a request that you reduce or eliminate the bright, flashing sparkles that now occur in all spell casting.

Now that it has gone live (well before you got rid of the bugs) I see that you decided to keep it in play. However, you have just made the game unplayable for me.

Now, because of the constant bright flickering that goes on all over my screen, I start to get a headache withing 10 to 15 minutes of playing. It doesn't matter whether I have my glasses of or on, or if I wear my regular glasses or my reading glasses (note: these prescriptions are less than 6 months old).

The very LEAST you could have done was added an option in the video (or advanced video) settings to turn this off.

I'm sorry to say that you have just made one of the best games I've ever played in a long time useless. Care to refund all the money I spent (subscriptions, crowns, gift cards)?
