Visual clarity is absolutely absurd

Just watch this vid by Goratha - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ir-28HxYeG4

How can anyone in their right mind think this level of clutter just from skills is ok? This video is absolutely stunning evidence that GGG have learned nothing and ignored feedback about screen clutter. Doesn't matter how good the game looks or feels if you can't see anything, and GGG know this is a common complaint and just ignore it.

The worse part is, it's a circular path of garbage - People demanding the ability to full screen clear packs guarantees you can't see what you're doing, what you're hitting, what you're dying to. The less you can see, the more you have to lean on AoE one-shotting everything or offscreening everything.

I've played PoE1 long enough to know that in the long run, this is only going to hinder people further in PoE2 because of the increased difficulty, causing them to want power/speed creep even more --> if your skills don't allow you to see clearly, then they by default have to be powerful enough to AoE one-shot everything around you. This is absolutely absurd game design. I like how slow and challenging the game is myself, but by allowing this screen clutter you're forcing people into a singular playstyle. It'll be PoE1 all over again in no time.

Look, I get that not all skills are like this, but the ones that are need a serious visual nerf. They could even test out a mechanical nerf like capping multiple projectiles, to 3 at most, from skills that have sizeable visual effects, like Fireball in the video, and replace it with a more polished version of chain so you only ever see the one fireball bouncing around and then adjust the damage and bounce speed between enemies so it still does "aoe" damage, just with much less screen clutter.

There's other skills where it may not be feasible to do this, like Fire/Ice Wall, so something needs to be done to make mobs actually stand out from their surroundings a lot more. Im no graphic artist, but surely theres some middle ground here.

Not having effects on rares that do on death effects is the worst. No one is reading every rare's mods except maybe hc players. 90% of my deaths are to the purple puddle on death bs and i even have 68% chaos res right now

Bump, please change the endgame combat asap
