More disturbing than all of that, magic missiles is now red instead of purple/blue. I know no one cares, I'm still looking for the right support group
Red always means evil, like Darth Vader's lightsaber. For multiple magic missiles, maybe it would be better to have each a different color, like a stream of Skittles flying through the air.
I'm new to 5e, so there are likely to be many differences to get used to.
But for many games each damage type has a particular colour (e.g. I think magic damage was purple in NWN, so magic missiles were purple ). In other games I think each spell school was coloured differently.
It would certainly be helpful for some players if there is some consistency in colours that can act as visual cues, but I guess it doesn't matter that much if Larian ( or 5e canon ) don't choose that path.
