I have been gaming for 15+ years and I never had an issue with flashing lights in video games,
untill I saw Vigil on Ilos and holographic projection (while talking to Illusive man in opening on ME2)
I want to mention that myself or my family have no history with epilepsy. But this was extreme.
under 30 seconds I started feeling nauseous even tho I was looking away , I felt like I was going to puke
I couldn't focus on the conversation at all , I even put my hand to block the direct light but the reflections
around my room still were affecting me. It has been 2 days now I still feel a bit nauseous. Today
I started ME2 LE and the conversation with the Illusive man has a similar issue , there is the same flickering
although the light is far less intense it still affects me a lot even though as I said I never had problems with
flashing lights. , the frequency it is flashing and flickering seems to be why it affects people this way.
This is a serious issue and if its affecting people without epilepsy so much and it is extremly hard to look at.
I wonder how it actually is for ppl with epilepsy. This needs to be fixed .
I showed this to my girlfriend and my brother and they both started feeling unwell after 20-30 seconds of
looking at it.
I tried to summarize this as best I can and I was NOT EXAGGERATING.
Thank you!
