Blue icons equals accessibility issues

Hello:

Recently the decision was made to recolour the icons and with that came what I think is a major accessibility issue. Specifically the blue. Because of it being blue and the Dead by Daylight background, it is really hard for people with color blindness and people who have problems seeing darks against dark. It is causing eye strain and headaches and needs to be addressed sooner than later. Especially since being able to discern perks/items is such a huge part of the game.

Thank you

    The blue and purple basically look identical with colorblindness. It really feels like a gut punch when they do things like this for no reason. They could have very easily asked some people to look at the colors and seen this coming before putting in the effort to change everything

    I know some in the PTB liked it but I mostly saw indifference which is a shame as if enough voices speak on it, then it gets more attention.

    Most responses I have seen were either negative or indifferent.

    There were some positive ones, but the negative far outweighed them.
