FoV is the same or close to it.

Not sure about motion blur, but it's at least pretty close.

Was there previously depth-of-field based on how distant the object at your reticle was? It seems like there was, but I'm not 100% sure. At any rate, I didn't see that while playing today; just a blur around the outside of the screen while aiming.

Nah, no graphics changes outside of the code support for The Taken.
Speaking of which... The Taken effects are certainly much more intense. I wonder if you have these effects in activities without them?

There was a wrong version of the Genesis?

There was a right version of the Genesis?

*badundund*
( I kid. I was a master system owner as a kid. Could not get my parents to 'upgrade' to a Genesis or any other console. Once was enough for them. I take that back. Twice was enough, before that we had an Atari )

I tend to think it's the concentration required - I tend to play as a mid-distance rifleman (i.e. Scout Rifles, DMRs), plinking away at heads when I play.

I'm also a software dev staring at large dual monitors all day. Seriously, blink more often or use moisturizing eye drops. I've noticed that when I'm focused on something I won't blink as often and my eyes will really feel it later that day, especially if I have a long session of destiny that evening.

Though really intense code sessions take me somewhere...else. Eye drops though...that might be the ticket.

There was a wrong version of the Genesis?

The original console was rectangle shaped and came with Streets of Rage 2 or Altered Beast. The updated was slim-line and square shaped, came with no game and was cheaper. There was a huge promotion at the time to buy a Genesis and get a free Sonic 2. What wasn't made obvious was that it was not for the newer square shaped consoles. The kicker was the only way to tell if wasn't "viable" for the promotion was to look at the UPC code and compare to the coupon. No one did that so that led to a boat load of upset callers.

Source: Mandatory ergonomics class I had to take when I first got a job testing video games 21 years ago (holy crap I'm old).

21 years ago I was just finishing up my stint at Sega doing customer support and telling very irate parents they weren't getting a free Sonic 2 cartridge because they bought the wrong version of the Sega Genesis. Or taking the hour long phone calls for game support on the RPG's.

System admin here, Server and end-user support. Two or three 24" Dell displays to the Win 10 desktop and one 27" thunderbolt for the Mac (two if I'm being really greedy or want to irk users that walk in the tech office). Some days I hate looking at the Apple monitor even though it's *nicer* than the Dell's. I wear contacts and use the blink drops usually in the afternoon. By the time I get home I usually put on the glasses as I've been wearing the contacts since 6am.

I too noticed a change in the display since TTK has come out. Made some adjustments to the TV for contrast/light level and it's better now. The Dreadnaught graphics are what tire me out the most. Not as bad as Halo 4 was but more so than say patrolling the Moon or Venus.

Also, who knew there were so many architects around?

Seriously guys, would you please stop killing me?

Or is it "architects", a la George Costanza?

I used to have this problem from halo multiplayer due to forced concentration/strain.

This is the only other time I've encountered it to such an extent. I played Witcher III and Dragon Age Inquisition to death without anything approaching this.

A lot of good suggestions in this thread - I'll just try to optimize.

TV Editor here. Two screens, a monitor, and my laptop!

Be sure to set your monitors to display white text on black backgrounds, it's a gamechanger.

Software engineer, dual-screens all day.

Great responses and suggestions from all. I will:

• Slightly raise my TV (it is currently directly at eye-level)
  
• Review contrast/brightness settings on my TV
  
• Add some lighting behind (around) my TV to normalize TV/ambient levels
  
• Sit back from TV
  
• Get an eye-exam (check-up)...I'm long overdue as it is

I noticed the same thing - burning eyes and watering - after TTK. Figured it was my age or stress level. While I'm on a computer/phone/tablet a lot, I usually get several hours of rest from big screen activity before playing.

I have a cool backlight behind my tv to prevent eye strain (and it looks cool), and my tv is not too close to my couch, ergonomically speaking.

FTW i'm an architect and I stare at a screen(s) pretty much all day.

You poor soul. I'm an architect also. Sitting in front of a computer for 8+ hours a day and then more time in front of the tv at home can't be good for me lol.

Aerospace engineer here, behind two 24" widescreens all day, but I try to walk around, and I get a "break" from screens when I get home and play with my son. :)

Once 2.0 dropped I felt like I noticed a change in the graphics that was causing eyestrain. I don't know it was but it was like a switch to my eyeballs.
