TOPIC | Can't go back to default mode anymore
Unfortunately for my eyes, as soon as I switch to default mode because ngl i do think it looks pretty, they cannot work properly so I must use dark mode instead...

Anybody else can relate??

I've gotten really used to Slate mode now. I like both the other modes as well, but I think it would be hard to go back to light mode at this point... this is just much easier on the eyes, especially in the evenings when I usually play

I love dark mode 99% of the time HOWEVER I prefer the light mode atm purely cuz i can see certain things better.. Like there's a lot of dragons that are hard to see in dark mode unfortunately ):

That said, going to the coliseum and getting flash-banged catches me off guard every time haha

Lol, yep! I used the normal visuals for 10 entire years, but it's been maybe a month with dark mode and it's soo nice. Default looks weird to me now. ;P

Edit- Though, it has made me want brighter clan backgrounds for the first time. As a loyal inkblot, the dark-on-dark might be a bit much. Hopefully there will be some new themes eventually to have that spice I crave~

I am an avid dark mode user on any site or app that uses it. It's just easier on my headache-prone eyes. I never did use the browser plugin-in to make it darkmode because I'm lazy and also because it would break after updates, so I was just used to the stark brightness of the default mode. But now, I'm not going back!! I hope they make a warmer alternative to slate, like a brown palette swap in the same values, but other than that I am very pleased with dark mode and cannot wait until everything is updated ^^

Dark mode isn't a must have for me, but I love how some visuals like vistas or scenes pop out so I've been rocking it since release.

Still hope that we'll get some flight themed layouts though. A soft white and blue for Ice, and a green and orange for Wind would be awesome. And maybe a copper-colored dark mode? Lots of cool themes you could do - if Stylus wasn't so buggy on my machine I'd probably make one myself

I actually have not touched either mode at all lol. I clicked both once just to see what the colours looked like but did not leave the settings screen with either them.

If it was selectable and not just "you HAVE to have your flight's colours you don't get to use the other ones" (not that I don't love Wind's colours) I'd be cycling through them all. I get y'all on the dark mode thing tho, that's how a site GETS you now you're all stuck in the shadow realm forever mwahaha /j

Man, I haven't even looked back in consideration of default mode since the release of slate XD

Dark mode felt a lil' too intense for me, but slate is filling that space. I would love some optional colour customisation for some areas, but this is still a big bound in the right direction.

Poisonous, but pretty! Peacevine lives on very little water and very little sunlight, making it an ideal lair decoration during long, dark winters.

Though ornaments made from jade are expensive in Sornieth's economy, the raw form of this particular stone is in heavy abundance in the rivers that run through the Windswept Plateau.

Yeah, I'm (personally) not going back to Default anytime soon. Slate is much nicer on my eyes.

It also somewhat reminds me of a couple of game forums I used to frequent quite a while ago, so that's nice.
