One finding in relation to other development team and their product.
I have to admit. I was disappointed.

J. Walter Weatherman · May 17, 2015

I'm actually more scared that they won't forget us. That they'll remember every time anyone ever whined on these forums and then when David Braben becomes Prime Minister he'll get us all arrested under anti-terrorism laws and we'll spend the rest of our lives living above a 6 foot heavily scarred northern man called Graham who used to be a gynecologist and keeps offering us exams.

But maybe that's just me.

Blizzard - Diablo 3 Reaper of Souls.
Epilepsy symptom trained i have flashes under my left eye. And this is reaction only to Diablo 3.
They don't listen community, this game are forgotten. They have gold mine called: World of Warcraft.
They make mix cocktail using elements of WOW into Diablo 3. And they have only one effect to make him in options switchable (ON - Off).

These symptoms: they have trained after longer playing time.

I think they're going to do. Train. It is the intention.

I wrote about it. No effect. Others have written about it before, did not listen to them.
They care only money. Nothing more.

Warning I only could find in the manual, which is inside the box with the disk. The first pay and then see. Literally, this is buying a cat in a sack.

Unfortunately, I realized who they are and what they are.
Earlier, I admired them.

It would be a simple enough matter to provide for users a facility to alter some of the more elaborate graphics features.

Not only would this make things a lot better for those of us who don't own the latest cool gear, it will allow those who may be affected by this very important condition to continue as customers.

I am not soending most of my time, once again, playing LOTRO. Sad, but the Blizzard games are now gone. I have Elite still, but playing it is a bore and a chore.

If true my girlfriend would have far more interest in this game.

Beyond that, I still have no idea what you're talking about.

*Notices the people in this thread 'taking an interest' in the OP's post. Smiles.*

In short: If you have a predisposition to epilepsy. You're doomed. Developer team is careless and greedy. This is all about it.
Buying a cat in sack: This thought is used by my people. When you buy something it turns out in the end you get the worst.
Such as, example: Purchase of used computers. I've had experience with that. Cat in a sack. English term: Screwed.

It really isn't rocket science to include a facility to deal with this:

Most people with photosensitive epilepsy are sensitive to 16-25 Hz. Some people may be sensitive to rates as low as 3 Hz and as high as 60 Hz.

https://www.epilepsy.org.uk/info/photosensitive-epilepsy

To those who might think this doesn't apply to them:

While computer displays in general present very little risk of producing seizures in PSE patients (much less risk than that presented by television sets), video games with rapidly changing images or highly regular patterns can produce seizures, and video games have increased in importance as triggers as they have become more common. Some people with no prior history of PSE may first experience a seizure while playing a video game. Often the sensitivity is very specific, e.g., it may be a specific scene in a specific game that causes seizures, and not any other scenes.

How simple it will be to take some proper action:

The World Wide Web Consortium - Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) Version 2.0, produced in 2008, specifies that content should not flash more than 3 times in any 1 second period. However it does allow flashing above this rate if the flashing is below the "general and red flashing thresholds". (Basically, it is OK to flash more than 3 times in a 1 second period if the flashing is small enough or low contrast enough.) [12]

In the United States, websites provided by federal agencies are governed by section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act. The Act says that pages shall be designed to avoid causing the screen to flicker with a frequency greater than 2 Hz and less than 55 Hz.[13] The 508 regulations are currently being updated and are expected to use the same criteria as WCAG 2.0 when finished.

A free tool for evaluating Web Content for flashing called the Photosensitive Epilepsy Analysis Tool (PEAT) [14] is available from the Trace R&D Center at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

I got a response only to Diablo. I do not have attacks. I have symptoms.
Flashing lights (white flash) under the left eye.

Here since I do not play Diablo have no symptoms.
I lowered the contrast on my monitor. It's not worth anything. I still had symptoms.

So I know what can to get me. I learned lesson on hard way. Diablo is dangerous for me.

I do not remember if I mentioned. I have no medical record for this disease. It's trained. And i'm very angry.
