A toggle button would be good for this option.
I wholeheartedly agree.

I feel you, in heroic I need to change my brightness/contrast to be able to play. Especially since this comes after dozens of turns with the dull dark age graphics.succinct and correct. It is about pleasure over pain and the endgame is painfully slow, making it painfully dull to look at is too much for me.
Making a game look crap if you are in a dark age is a step too far. Note I also hate heroics and to a degree goldens. Too bright. A toggle button would be good for this option.

That would probably look disjointed. I don't mind - actually, I like - the fact that the colours of the entire map reflect the age you are in. But I do agree the effect could be toned down a little, so it's not *quite* as bright, when you're in a golden age, and not *quite* as dark, when you're in a dark age.I guess the colors should only be for the UI bar above and the circle where you choose your actions, not the whole map. That is really weird and painful to look at.
One thing that a player should watch out for is going over the golden age point by a lot of points. While this doesn't increase the number of points you need for your next golden age, it does limit what era point bonuses are available. As an example, you can only get the era point bonus for a good adjacency/full district once. It might be a good idea to actually delay completing said district or the final building in the district until the next era comes.
Of course, there's an opportunity cost to delaying the district or final building. Would you rather put that era score towards something useful but not get the several turns of yields or would you rather get useless era points but get the yields sooner?
This doesn't only apply to districts/final buildings of course. It can apply to anything that gives era score although the opportunity cost would change depending on what you're delaying.
