Accessibility Option - Disable/Reduce Clouds

    Before I get into this post I want to be clear - I am only talking about clouds! Not fog, not 'Fort/Fleet/Flameheart', not the storm, just your regular everyday aesthetic clouds.

    Please, please give those of us with poor eyesight the option to remove these pesky clouds! I literally CAN NOT do any voyages that use birds (Veil, Merchant Sunken Cargo) without a dedicated person to watch for birds for me.

    I have tried colorblind settings. I have increased quality. I have reduced quality. Nothing works.

    With the right background (clear sky), the birds are easy to see! I feel like I'm not crazy!

    But then a cloud moves in... I know where the birds are, I go to adjust the wheel a bit, walk back in front of the sails and....no clue....they are just...gone... I know where they should be, but with my eyesight, they completely blend into the clouds.

    Please Rare... I don't want a competitive advantage when it comes to PvP. I just want to see birds.

    Alternatively, make the birds easier to spot both during the day and night. I don’t think they’d be able to have an option to disable clouds. I think they’d either have to remove them for everyone or no one. But I also cannot do these types of voyages without someone else on my ship to help out. Maybe, if nothing else, they could add a narration option to the game that would narrate if you were at the birds. They do make a squawking sound, but I can’t always hear it for some reason. So add either a narration or subtitle that lets me know they are near.

    I actually love how it is hard to see birds.

    But I can see why it is an accessibility problem.

    I don’t understand how birds and clouds counter each other.

    Your not looking up you just need to look forward. Mainly from crows nest.

    The birds can be hard to spot in the Wilds even when there are no clouds behind them.
