When the final trial for Dawntrail came out, I found myself getting physically ill at a certain mechanic's graphics. I'm talking the black and green grid floor where it warps. It's extremely nauseating. I had to walk away and lay down after the first run, and couldn't enjoy the cut scenes after.
Every time I get it in roulette, I end up half upchucking my lunch, and feeling like the room is spinning for a long time after, and getting caught in mechanics I'd usually not get caught in. And I'm not the only one who's expressed this via party chat during the trial.
Then the EX comes out, and its part of the VERY FIRST mechanic. No it doesn't last a long time, and only happens once, but when you are progging it, if the party is wiping, you have to repeat it every single time. Guaranteed. Even once you are just farming, it is one mech you will ALWAYS see.
This means I and many others very likely will not be able to do this one. Not because we need to 'get good', but because of motion sickness. I will try it, but it's likely I will never get 99 totems, so if the mount doesn't drop for me, welp. That was pointless.
Whos idea at SE was it to put in such a mechanic with such a horrible visual? You can't tell me no one on their team experienced motion sickness from this or saw how it could be a problem.
