Skill effects are regressing.

GGG is going backwards when it comes to skill effects. They are becoming worse and worse. I fear because of optimization requirements for console compatibility, they make the skills look less powerful. I hate when console affects the pc version of games.


Case in point:

Original Fireball skill:

In my opinion they look like shit in both examples. That second fireball has much faster projectile speed so maybe this is the reason.
On Probation Any%
No, no second fireball looks worse. Looks more like a tennisball on fire.
