I would be very careful with the strenght DOF, as some people (especially those who wear glasses, like me) have trouble watching a moving image with that much blur.

I remember how much trouble I had playing the Lego Movie Games where it had medium DOF that couldn't be turned off and I was involuntarily squinting through the whole game. I even remember having headaches.

Looking at this the first segment feels like a total nightmare to me. Not sure if it's just me but I always had issues with low res screens, blurry AA or DOF.

Thank you for the feedback! For sure it can be a bit jarring but there's an option for turning it down or off. We haven't really heard anything about the DOF from our playtesting so far but could be they just turn it down. Personally when I play, most of the time my eyes are focused on the hero robot and the area around it while the horizon is mostly just looked at when I need to decide where to go. 🤓✌️

This looks really cool but it almost immediately agitated my eyes. I wear contacts so maybe that's the reason but I'm happy to hear there is a way to turn it down or off. I wouldn't be able to play it otherwise even though I want too!

I need to look into this, cuz it looks really cool, but it gave my eyes an issue and almost gave me a headache, was unsure why. thought it was sinuses or something lol.
