  i tried every single AA option and they all look really blurry, the only fix is disabling AA. Would suggest to Adjust AA options or add new ones.

  Let us limit framerate not just when it's not the main window. Not everyone wants to run a game at unlimited FPS or even higher than 60. Unlimited FPS makes PCs run harder than they need to and does not improve the overall experience of any game that isn't a First Person Shooter.

  For some reason even though im running it at 200 fps the game feels very slow like its capped at around 60fps. Im wondering if this will be changed in the future since the game feels unplayable for me now that im used to higher refresh rates

  Most of the time, for a visually impaired person like myself, the background transparency effects in the menu make it too bright, reducing contrast and making it harder to read the text and to discern between items with icons that look alike. Please, add an option to the UI settings to disable the backgroud transparency effects in the menu, and check if the contrast between the menu backgroud and the text is high enough.
  
  I suggested checking the guidelines in the WCAG 2.0 to evaluate the menu contrast ratios.

  Please add an option to limit the framerate to 60/90/120/etc - my computer is working overtime, even though I already put in the option "performance". You already have the option to limit the framerate while in windows, however I did not find an option ingame.

  I would like to hide individual parts of the HUD instead of just hide it all or not. This would include enemy healthbars, stamina bars, etc. Also I'd like to make the lock on camera much closer. Seems the camera distance option doesn't affect this.

  Add a numerical value to the Field of View setting so that users can set the appropriate Field of View for the resolution they're playing at. A slider does not allow players to correctly or accurately set the appropriate value.

  Hello,
  
  My fiancee suffers from Misophonia, which is a disorder that triggers a strong reaction from specific sounds. The sounds of eating and drinking are sounds which triggers her Misophonia, including those from eating/ drinking in Enshrouded. My suggestion/wish would be to have a setting that mutes eating/drinking sounds. I know this sounds mundane, but it can be a big deal to some people, not just for myself and my fiancee.
  
  Thank you.

  Would like to be able to choose which hud elements to hide, for example: hide the compass, hide health/mana, hide stamina circle, and/or hide the journal. Alternatively, the "Hide HUD" option in the Esc. menu should still show the context key, i.e. hides all the hud, but still shows the "press 'E' to collect stone" button, or the 'E' for grapple locations.

  Hello,
  
  Having a cursor in the game would be really good for computer players, as it would make a lot of things easier including in combats.
  
  I'm used, for decades, to be able to move the camera with my mouse only when the right or left click is held (one is only camera moving, the other is cam + character).
  In return, it means the game has to have a mouse cursor int he gaemplay, that is not the case here.
  
  This lead me to another point of what I'm suggesting here : motion sickness.
  I am prone to motion sickness unfortunately, as many people in the world. Low-sensivility helps a bit but is not the best :'(
  
  Being able to move the camera independantly from the character is a super good feature for people like me.
  The option of the right and/or left click held while moving the mouse is the best option I found in many games to let the player free of doing hat he wants about the movements.
  
  A bigger max cam distance is also efficient against motion sickness
  
  Thank you in adv

  All of the UI needs massive scaling down from its current size, at least on a 42" monitor with 3840x2160 display resolution. I think this is monitor-dependent, therefore a UI scale slider in settings would do it. As it stands now, the action bar alone on my monitor is about 30cm long, almost the length of my keyboard, which is too much.

  Hi there, I thought I should add a little elaboration to my original suggestion:
  - "hurt my eyes" is a literal expression, looking at the bloom makes me wince
  - The fog I'm referring to is the post processed looking stuff that blows along ground level, not the volumetric looking stuff in shrouded areas
  - Said fog seems to have a synergistic reaction with the sunlight to produce the "flashbang" effect
  - I suspect that there may be some kind of auto-exposure effect contributing to this as well
  
  Thanks :)

  I also agree--the bloom hurts my eyes and makes the daylight portion of the game physically uncomfortable. I had to step away from the game yesterday because of eyestrain. Bloom is always one of the first things I disable or turn down in games for this reason. The gameworld has beautiful, vibrant colors, and yet I can't see them half the time due to the bloom flashbang effect during the day. The game feels far too bright and washed out in certain areas because of this.

  The bloom is making the game hard to play. It is so bright and washed out it is hard for me to look at the game during the daytime. If this is how it is supposed to look, we at least need an option to turn it down/off. Not sure if this is a bug or not.

  Don't understand how glaring (pun intended) things like this get out the door? TBH if the digging wasn't so good, I wouldn't still be playing. As of now I'm living underground and only go out at night. Its become something of a RP situation with my friends, so I've found a way to still have fun but seriously. Don't just add a bloom feature. Remove it from the handbook of things to put in games. There is a limit to what "realism" is acceptable in games. Glare and bloom is never fun IRL why would anyone want it in a game?

  I refunded the game because of the extreme default gamma setting of the game. When a brightness + gamma + bloom slider is added to the game I will buy it again. However, for such an fundamental thing to be missing gives me the feeling that this is ''what devs intended''.
  
  Honestly, I don't know why this made me so angry and turned me into a Karen writing this long message here. Am I a vampire or something? I have never seen such bad day light simulation in any game in the last 25 years. I can't stand it!

  When crafting items there is a "flash" or highlighting to show that something was triggered/completed. This is a little excessive on the eyes, and when crafting many items such as hundreds of building blocks, this is irritating and might impact people with light sensitivity issues.
  
  In addition: when moving or sitting/standing near the edge of a rest/comfort area, the upper left of the screen can go into a constant loop of "resting/comfort score" and no such window shown, which flashes repeatedly on and off and is irritating and might cause light sensitivity issues.

  Not sure if bloom is the sole culprit here or if brightness/gamma is playing a part as well. At times during gameplay scenes can appear very washed out however and this problem even extends into the user interface and the pause menu.

  Loving the game so far, but the bloom and fog is really distracting at times. At certain times of day, its totally fine, but transitioning from dark to light is far too intense and certain areas of dungeons can be incredibly difficult to see because of sun beams. I also have been noticing that in my house ill sometimes see "fog" in the corners of the room that is less than appealing. I think it would be a good thing in general to have an option to disable bloom and fog (or at least tone fog down since its an important part of the game) not only for personal preference, but for performance reasons on lower end machines as well.

  Would like to see a keybind for toggling the HUD. After death with the HUD disabled, I couldn't remember the keybind to rez and had to close the game. While one could open the menu every time, I feel this would be more convenient. I would also like to see an auto-hide feature, where the HUD might appear in combat or perhaps when visiting POIs (customizable, hopefully). I know, I know, we gamers just can't be happy with what we get. :p Peace

  Increase saturation of the games color pallet. While I do like the look of the game, at times I cant help but feel like everything is just a bit washed out looking. The glare of the sun doesn't help with this. If there were a menu setting that allows the player to increase or decrease saturation the game would really come alive with vibrancy.

  I'd like to support this.
  
  I suffer with arachnophobia, but thankfully, video-games don't usually trigger me. That said, I will always make use of arachnophobia options if they are available.
  
  Unfortunately, my partner is severely arachnophobic. He's unable to even look at a static photograph of a spider in a book. It's something that has forced us to rule out a number of games in the past - especially ones in this genre. There are so many wonderful gaming experiences that the two of us have been unable to share, simply because spider enemies are such a common enemy design.
  
  For a game like 'Grounded' I do see them as an essential addition, considering the theme and setting. For games such as this - I don't see them as such, and I would love to see developers move away from arachnid enemy designs in favour of something new or unique.
  
  Modding or native arachnophobia modes are essential, but must include removal or change of sound design.

  Almost the first thing I noticed watching a streamer in low light was that the crafting flash is incredibly retina burning. Same goes with the rested conditions updating constantly (already a separate request, I noticed) and the pinned recipes flashing brightly every time you either collect a pinned material or complete the recipe.
  
  These flashes need to be toned down or have an option to disable them at least. They could possibly trigger seizures in some and be considered offputting by others.

  This is definitely a big turn off for folks with arachnophobia to be suddenly jumped by a spider, or have dozens of spiders flee from a barrel. If you can change the art to remove legs, or some other simple function as an accessibility feature, that would be great!

  So when I first encountered the spiders in this game I wasn't aware of them and one jumped out at me and I ended up flipping my desk chair over with me in it and broke the chair. I wasn't injured but knowing they were in the game I could deal with them, but definitely would love to have them changed to something else.

  I would be more than happy even if you could change the hundreds of jumping spiders when breaking barrels. I am prepared for the mobs and can manage my phobia as long as I can fight them, but jump scare+arachnophobia is just too much.

  As someone with terrible arachnophobia, I personally have never used an arachnophobia option. For me, the feelings the spiders cause me is part of the fun in a way. Like playing a horror game. The uncomfortable, creeped out, and sometimes terrified feeling in a safe context makes it fun to fight spiders in the same way it's fun to run from ghosts in Phasmophobia.
  
  Keep in mind, I've literally walked out of my house and down the street because there was a spider on my computer desk. I, absolutely, cannot handle spiders near me. But in a video game, I think the feelings they evoke is part of the experience.

  This game, if possible, like if they could add it in with not much strain it honestly would be amazing to have a full screen exclusive setting and if possible, the ability to switch to Direct X 11 or 12 API. With running the Radeon Rx 7900 Xt having the ability to use my GPU software fully just by incorporating those two settings FPS would be insanely stable and maximize true potential of the game. Love this game it's so in-depth can't wait to see what happens to it with time. Again, these would be two cool features to add into game (Fullscreen Exclusive) and (ability to switch to Direct X 11 or 12 API).

  Maybe you'll consider adding Anti aliasing to your game. There is no such thing as everyone being an Nvidia user. FSR2 looks very bad in this game. Also, everyone who cannot optimize their game for some reason uses FSR or DLSS. I wish everyone would first optimize their game and then add these extra.

  As an accessibility option, this is on top of the list. For those of us with light sensitivity it's a game killer. I can't think of any game out there in 2024 that doesn't have an option to turn off bloom. The game is so washed out and glary it's hard to play. Please, please please. Look at accessibility options other games have and adopt them.

  Game should have this option, don't care about going through Invidia, want the game to do it as it is a game issue so need to take responsibility for option to control it, particularly if it is being throttled by game anyway. Other EA games do it, so that is not the issue.

  I think a frame cap within the settings would be a huge improvement to performance consistency and my own personal peace of mind.

  The fog in the shroud gives me a headache. I dont mean its difficult, I mean, it is straining and causing me to have a headache. I understand the thought behind it and can appreciate it, however, can you make it so once your in the shroud you have more visibility. Im blind in one eye so eye strain is a real issue. Make seeing into the shroud from the outside of it difficult so you can't know whats in it from looking from the outside, but when your in it, please lift the visibility.. OR make craftable lenses so you can see better in the shroud? IDK. I really am at the point where I don't want to play because of eye strain and headache.. LOVE THE GAME SO FAR OTHERWISE!! Cant wait to see what future plans are..

  Speaking of accessibility options I'm concerned that this important accessibility option will go unnoticed. (Red/green color deficiencies. my husband and i agree that turning the deadly shroud and mycelium rivers a shade of yellow would be very beneficial.) It's sitting on the very bottom at 81 votes (at time of writing). My husband is affected by this and without me he'd have a rough time playing. People who were born with disabilities that they can't fix or control should be thought of and included. He shouldn't have to rely on his wife to guide dog him whenever we're exploring because his client cannot portray danger to him correctly.
