   Is this something blizzard is implementing? IE: U cant turn them off anymore? Or is it simply over looked?

   I feel with you mate. I hate those effects too. Though you can actually turn them on/off still. All you need to do is when you are ingame you use some console code in chat.

   
   

   For Turning off Full screen glow thing you type:

   
   

   /console ffxGlow 0

   
   

   For Death glow thing type:

   
   

   /console ffxDeath 0

   
   You can turn them on/off simply by using either 0=off or 1=on in the end.
   
   Hope this helps.
   
   EDIT: Though you can still turn them on/off like this imo they should just let them stay in the options for ppl to decide them selfs

So there. For those wanting to know how to do this when you're questing and end up dying and unable to see crap from the deathly glow effects. Took me 10 mins to find my body because of that silliness.
