Can you tone down a bit ?

After playing 6 hours non-stop today, me rn:

Yeah. It is not looking good. Especially some abyss effect are so blatantly overblown you can't even see the boss telegraphs and get one shot. No agency at all. Fucking frustrating.

The real problem is the full screen of them, which is caused by the zoom zoom playstyle that PoE1 has as well. There's no fixing that other then removing the effects entirely (and at that point might as well play PoE1 or Vampire survivors) or they should actually try making the game not about clearing screens of enemies.

Part of the problem seems to me particular design decisions, not just the screen clear. I only had one character in poe1. Quit the game because I did not like the pace and disco ball screen explosions. The whole reason I started poe2 because devs emphasized multiple times that the game will visually be toned down and slower paced. I sincerely hope that poe2 won't end up being poe1 with a facelift.
