There is no draconian filter. All other titles from Ubisoft and Sony pass these tests and have to make corrections to comply with them, and the thing is that my son does not have epilepsy now. He had those problems his first year and the doctors think that he is now fine and that i MAY have been low vitamine B12 causing it - but they do not know. So should I let him play computer games or not, for the rest of his life? A woman at work had never had any problems with epilepsy and then bang, one day after experiencing a lot of stress and strong light she got a seizure, and IF you push beyond the limit, the brain gets kind of a snowball effect. Now she is on medication, probably for the rest of her life. So this screening is presumably just as much for me and you, as we don't know if we could get a seizure tomorrow. I have been playing computer games since 1981, but tomorrow with a lot of other factors I cound get it...

Anyway, I am all for making it optional - but the drama here with "this is all Ubisofts fault" was naturally just expected...
