There are bigger things to fix than how loud the temporary fireworks are. Have some perspective. Once we get fixes for the actual issues then we can move onto the smaller ones.

Also, might want to drop the assumptions that many people don't see anything wrong with the game, at least on the forum. This is the place where people come to complain about things the most.

Note that this actualy does extend towards a permanent thing acros many areas. I know in ShB and EW there are ambient BG effects. And personaly the sound they use in ShB for that weather is just anoying after a while. I already have music off as i have my own music, and these sort of bg effects are ideal if they can be muted (or at least reduced in volume).

A lot of people do not even think about issues until you mention it to them. They often will be like 'that is indeed anoying, but... blabla'. And in that they either just have some workaround for themselve, or just avoid doing something. This even happens during work (too often i heard people complain about a windows update when they wanted to shut down windows and leave, only to be forced to wait 10mins for that update to be finished so they can finaly pack their laptop - but never did we receive an official complaint, or even just a request to find a solution for it, microsofts own activity eventualy caused a fix here). Some small QoL improvements can have very big effects. And audio clutter is actualy something a lot of people get disturbed by (its just the sounds that differ per person).

You can always mute the sounds in game, I think its much better and logical than demanding and special option to turn off-on fireworks.

What is fun to you isnt fun to me.

This just in.. two weeks is now a month.

Going around and attempting to insult the community isn't helping your case, especially when you present it in this fashion, the only thing you're missing is the timely 'GCBTW' like a proper stooge.

As to a solution to your request; if you haven't already found it, lower or outright mute the Sound Effects option in Sound Settings.

"Insulting" by saying people refuse to accept that the game isnt 100% perfect ?

I dont think insulting means what you think it means

It's not your place to decide what is and isn't important for the game. It's a suggestion thread, grow up and let it exist. Go make your own thread if you want a different quality of life fix in the game as well. Or better yet if there's a bug that you want fixed, go track it down in game, reproduce it, and make a thread on the bug report forum section outlining how to reproduce it.

No no no, I just turn the SFX down. :^)
Besides, I don't think it's a crime to ask for fluff items for issues that can be fixed in game. Though I would prefer if the devs/SE just shut down the forums since it's clear that they don't really care what happens here and the devs will do their "balancing" act with our without input from the playerbase. Though I would say if you want your awfully niche toggle then ask for them to slap it in the mogshop, the modern playerbase and devs will be more inviting to the idea that way. lol

Just making the fireworks ambience instead of normal sound effects would be a very easy solution, they should be under ambience anyway in the first place, not even a need for a toggle, but it's also an option

Why can't your PC handle this?

By the way...
Disable the display of people who have horrible glamour, please.

The fact that a teeny-tiny request to disable fireworks is receiving this much vitriol and pushback isn't surprising in the slightest lmao.

Like, y'all don't even have to engage, just let the mf fade into the aether.

Ya know, I don't even notice them after a while. You must have mega super high sensitive senses.

If these bother you do other things like a water fall sound? What about the sunshine? does that become annoying after a while too? How about birds chirping?

Yes lets compare a waterfall sound with fireworks, that makes a lot of sense IRL too, waterfall sounds are definitely exactly the same as fireworks.
