Give us the option to turn off the new suppression vignette

The new suppression vignette added in the update makes the game look almost permanently darkened on heresy and damnation.
Getting shot at was already obvious with the sound and visual effects while the new darkening of the screen edges just makes the game look worse and on higher difficulties you’ll often have the edges of the screen darkened for 50% of the map seeing as there’s so many shooters.
It’s especially bad on psyker who already suffers from the peril vignettes(which should also have a turn off option), making gameplay videos with him now makes the game look bad for anyone that hasn’t tried it yet
Please give us an option to turn it off

Agreed. Additionally, here is an example of the suppression vignette interacting really poorly with the peril effect and causing borderline seizure-inducing flashes: Twitch

2nd this. I got forwarded this forum post by a CM off the discord and can say that this NEEDs to be an optional “feature” and not just be another unneeded element forced into player’s faces.

What is this?:
The VFX that happen when you are under suppression and are losing /out of toughness for the most recent update.

Reasons:

  • breaks immersion & is more distracting than helpful
  • People (other than me) are complaining about it giving them nausea.
  • It does NOT work well with the already existing overlays for Psychers, Vets, & Zealots and sometimes will cause a strobe light effect. Not really good for people with epilepsy or people that don’t want eye sores.
  • The broken toughness color distortion + contrast changing is literally headache inducing as said by many on the steam reviews and discord.

This making the gameplay nauseating (not just for me but people are talking about it in the other chats aswell, with clips sent to me).
