Not sure if games are made worse, or if I am just dumb and I have missed some setting, but some of the new games are giving me eye-strain.
(I just played one mission of deep rock galactic, and I feel like I have been playing for days.)

A lot of games have too much screen clutter. I wouldn't be surprised if the excessive use of visual effects fatigues the eyes faster than a game from late 90s, early 2000. Whenever I play something modern, I can't help but scream internally at the fact that devs didn't need to make pickups shine/glow for you to be able to see them in the environment.
@alyx @LukeAlmighty older games used different tricks for visual effects that weren't eyerape or had good art direction instead. They were trying to be eye candy instead.
