Hi! So as a color blind person, color blind options in video games really don't do anything for me, especially if they're just like a hue shift. My biggest gripe is with character creators!! I love playing WoW and I was very into Tomodachi life when it came out, and those games can be horrible for color blind people. My biggest issue when it comes to my color blindness is confidence in what I'm looking at. I tend to second guess myself and I'm never really sure that I'm choosing the right color. It's infuriating that these games don't at least have a little popup that gives you a name for each color if you hover over them or something that way I don't have to spend time looking for a guide online to find out the color. This seems like such an easy thing to implement and would be something everybody would benefit from. Do you guys know any other games that have this problem or are good about color blind options? Do you think there are any other solutions?

I grew up with this phenomenon and didn't realize that other people either didn't experience this, or had it happen on such a small scale that they didn't take notice of it. I'm talking about the visual experience that occurs after sunbathing, specifically having your eyes pointed towards the sun, of course with your eyelids closed, for a little while. My immediate experience after opening my eyes again is a literal grayscale of my vision. The longer I stay in that position, the "grayer" and longer the effect stays. After a few minutes the colors all come back.

Is this a common experience in the colorblind community? I assume this is caused by the lower levels of cone cells in the eye? So a correlation would occur with colorblindness.

I might have mild deuteranomaly. I can see bright reds and greens, but I have a brown shirt that every says is green, and circuit boards look teal to me
