Me and my wife are really hyped about this game and love every aspect of it, from what we have seen from dev updates. There is just one major concern and that is the flashiness of effects from skills and boss/npc mechanics.

My wife has autism and the flashiness in most MMO's is pretty much unbearable due to how intense it is. This leads to meltdowns and makes the game unenjoyable to the point where it becomes unplayable. We would really love to play an MMO together again.

This leads to our suggestion and hopes that devs also see this;

Please add a slider to reduce the effects or some option in the settings to disable certain effects that might make it difficult for some to play the game. :)
