DJMorpheus2007: Hi, all :-).

I'm really hoping someone can try to answer this for me, because I've been unable to find a definite answer anywhere...

I have sight problems, including NO colour vision AT ALL and according to video reviews I've checked, the new battle system in Ys X uses colour-coded cues, red & blue were mentioned.

Does anyone know if these cues are a big requirement to be able to win battles, or if there are any options to maybe help to reduce the need for these colours in battle?

I hope someone can help me out here, my first venture into the world of Ys, was Ys VIII and I got Ys IX at the same time, love them both, so I'd love to get Ys X to add to my collection :-).

I've bought a few games on here that I've had to refund because of issues with UI and/or colours and some I can't even buy... I'm hoping this at least allows me to play it without issues *crosses fingers*

alexandros050: Probably you won't get an answer here and I can't comment since I don't own the game but you can try asking in the Falcom subreddit.

DJMorpheus2007: Thank you for replying and providing some detail :-).

I'm still undecided at the moment, so I will have to check some gameplay reviews and try to determine if it will cause me some problems. Still trying to figure-out why a lot of things use colours when there are other ways to highlight/emphasise things. *shrugs*

I'm hoping NIS America respond to my message, but I've heard nothing so far...

Orgdan: No problem. I hope you get your answer. :)

DJMorpheus2007: I found a decent gameplay video, that's shown me a lot and...

I 'should' be ok with it. Looks like the red & blue are accompanied by different auras, the red being darker, unless I'm mistaken.

So I've decided to take the plunge and buy it, looks fantastic from what I've seen :-).

I'll update this post once I've had a decent play of it, not much to play through to have both battle options in-play.
