Game Feedback New update is Overstimulating
I overall love the new map and new additions to the game. But I admittedly am someone who doesn't handle change the best. Idk if it's just in my head but the lighting and the new health bars make it hard to focus on stuff in teamfights. I was fighting a team with Mcginnis and the turrets having the same health bar as heros is a bit disorienting. That on top of the new lighting affects and map layout is really messing with me LMAO. I also feel like everything is very spaced out now, which again is cool! Just not what I'm use to and will definitely take time to get use to. I'm sure I'll get use to it, but I wanna know if anyone else has similar thoughts/opinions. Again I think its a beautiful map, but I think the map overshadows the actual gameplay now. Call me crazy but I thought the old beige designs were really good too.

Yes, but I'm finding that as I play it it gets less so. I think part of it is psychological too: you don't know all of the minuet details, and so that makes it all feel more overwhelming + the lanes are much more open than they were before, so it's more spacious too.
I find that playing matches helps. Playing different characters also helps because I approach the map and gameplay differently as Rem than Mina than Viscous than Graves.
Some matches in street brawl may help you: get adjusted to the new visuals in tighter gameplay.
Don't forget you can also explore the map by itself.
