@massivelyop funny question. My first thought are #GuildWars2 drunk effect if you drink a lot of alcohol the screen gets all wavy up to the point where it begins to change color and become very difficult to do anything. Or maybe just when you eat too many sweets, like a bunch of candy corn and your help doubles over and hurls
@massivelyop @samkash I haven't been drinking much in #GW2, but this reminds me of the drunkenness effect in #LOTRO as well (bonus : if you get drunk from certain kegs, you eventually pass out and wake up in random places, pant less - Lotro-style so you have actually quite prude undergarments. And the effect icon is a sad panda)
@skro @massivelyop lol waking in random places is funny.. #GW2 is just an overlay visual effect that makes the colors go crazy and the screen spin to make you dizzy
@massivelyop @samkash most of Lotro's effect is like that as well: fuzziness, colour grading fading to sepia - eventually gray if you're drunk enough - and player headache if looked at for too long 🤢
