The colorblind accessibility options do not go far enough for protanopia

[b]Edit: Of course the one TWAB I didn't read addressed [i]one[/i] of these issues but my point still stands with everything else.[/b] I’m honestly thinking of dropping the game at this point as b*ngie seems to not understand accessibility needs & think that issues relating to 1 type of colorblindness must apply to all 3 main types. Boss nameplates weren’t an issue for people with protanopia, it’s the impossibly close [b]red[/b] and orange that is rank and file vs powerful enemies that is an issue (Y’know, for the type of colorblindness weak to [b]red[/b]) [i]still not resolved [/i] with the most recent update. Not to mention the fact that 99% of all aim down sight reticles are [b]red[/b] with the exception of thorn and a devils ruin ornament (there’s probably a few others but none come to mind at this current time) The fact you can change the hip fire reticle but not the [b]red[/b] dot ADS reticle really baffles me. It’s almost 2022 and this game still lacks some of the most [b]Basic[/b] accessibility features. [i][b]I can’t see a red reticle in a gunfight, it just blends in to scenery, explosions, walls etc. I can’t see enemy “””””highlights””””” because they are red and blend in to scenery. I can’t see the difference between rank and file enemies and powerful enemies besides some arbitrary name difference like “resilient vandal” [/b][/i] what the -blam!- is the point in playing this game if you’re at a permanent disadvantage and anytime you bring it up on forums it falls on deaf ears/they only cater to the most common type of colorblindness. You wouldn’t need to cater to any individual type if you just added the ability to have whatever nameplate/enemy highlights/ ADS reticle/ radar/ item rarity color suited your individual needs. This probably came across as a rant, I’m just so tired of [i][b]begging[/b][/i] to be able to see in this game. It’s been 4 years at this point.
