A few other xbox settings I use to declutter the screen and audio field that may help you a bit too:
Gameplay:
Interact prompt style - compact
Button hints - off
Crosshair damage feedback - off
Damage numbers - stacking
Ping opacity - faded
Obituaries - off
Minimap rotation - off
Incoming damage feedback - 2D
Hopup popup - off
Performance display - off
Reticle - customise to what suits you
Laser sight - customise to what suits you
Color blind mode - may have some more comfortable settings for you
Subtitles - off
Disable chat features
Convert incoming voice to text - off
Video:
Fov 110% - you could reduce that
Fov ability scaling - off
Sprint view shake - minimal
Audio:
Dialogue at 64%
Music volume 0%
Lobby music 0%
And lastly 😃
Kunai - off

@caffeinzombie211 gee that dosnt sound good. I'm no expert but, for whatever reason, you might need to stop playing a session before you start to feel bad, and rest for a bit.

Have you tried playing at 720 instead of 1080 or uhd. There's a big difference in the picture and it might suit you better, its much plainer and colors more subdued.

Have you fiddled with your tv/monitor settings to see if you can decrease what's causing you a problem.

Only other thing I can think of at the moment is to set damage to stacking, so there's only one number there.

  @caffeinzombie211 I have my controller values for turning and up and down movement (inc ads) at what would be considered slow, as I cannot see what's going on if it's too fast.
  Might be worth trying that too.
