Feedback on Colourblind Support for Gem Sockets

Why not having the option to personnalise colours of sockets ingame with a color chart . Then, everybody would be able to choose colours that fits well for them.

I'm personnally colorblind and it's really problematic actually, i have to check with gems which sockets are green or red.
I would like to have intell in blue, strength in red and dext in yellow for example, or maybe orange and brown, etc...

***

Make INT sockets Triangular (pyramid) shaped, Dex Sockets Octagon Shaped, and Strength sockets Star shaped:

Simple and distinguishable from one another.

Edit: GGG Please consider this a better way to help the colour blind than to make a hash mark change that will collide with socket links making their identity obscure at best.

I'm not a coloblind person, but is there not a problem with Blue pointing up and links also pointing up?

which other gem colour would it be if the link is on top and theres no indication? you probaply say "white" now. but if you think they cant difference between white and dark you must be dellusional.
imagine trying to understand whats close and whats far if everything has the same exact colour.

Why not just add a big letter in the middle of the socket?

R = Red
W = White
G = Green
B = Blue

Quite simple really

Now translate to French.

R = Rouge
B = Blanc
V = Vert
B = Bleu

Quite simple really

Just better text color and aesthetics for sockets.
That should be enough.

My english is really bad. But even for those who are much worse in english than me -> "RGB" - "red green blue" are very popular and well known english words.

You sure notches are the way to go? Can't you slightly change the gem slot shapes so they are for example square, diamond, triangle instead? Wouldn't be that clearer?

I totally think that is the best way to do it if they don't want to mess with the colours.

If green is south/east, red is south/west, then make blue north/east and white north/west. Wouldn't it be LOGIC?

F**k NO, let's make it north, the hell with the links. Unbelievable!

These notches correspond to the layout of the passive skill tree. For example, the blue socket notch points upward to represent the Intelligence area at the top of the passive tree.

Are you all right? Can you read?
It is extremely clear even for a one-year-old child why the line is directed in that direction.
What is your problem? Why the 16 pages of this thread is littered with complaints from non-colorblind people suggesting to change the shape of the sockets to square stars with an offset of 90 degrees?

why not having little letters? could be inside or to one side, quite distinguishable and readable

after all RGB is a common letter sequence famous in all languages, whilst any other addition can be a letter "A" (alpha channel in graphics' world)
