The shakes are kinda cool after the first few times but then they're just... annoying, in my opinion.
The flashes when you take damage are "cool" and all, but when the game is all about flashy telegraph lights and visual cues, it gets in the way. Not a big fan of the "I'VE BEEN JAMMED" feel, anyways. I understand it'd be very useful for players who don't really watch their health, though.
In addition, because of how the game freezes when it first loads a certain set of graphics, it can cause you to move or attack a little more than you'd like to.
So, I'd like a way for it to be toggled off, not necessarily removed entirely.
I REALLY agree. Ugh, please make an option for this.
