One of this games larger unmentioned flaws: Sound Design

[Marxam]

I wish we could turn off ally voice sounds without turning off the sounds of their skills/the voices of the enemy.. I don't wanna hear the same high pitched grunts every gcd. I didn't even know about Nidhogg's awesome voice til I watched a video of the fight- I've had voices turned off since my first dungeon.

imagine if this was a old school japanese game where they grunt every time you swing your sword. The only sound design that is my real complaint is the lack of VO in the bulk of the game. I feel a real disconnect when all I get is silent text from an npc who is trying to convey emotion or dread.

"Hear. Feel. Think?" More like "Read. Feel. Think."

i only jest about the player sounds, i actually love how all skills have a very unique sound to them, like for instance when im tanking i can hear the healer pop cleric so i know when to pop a cooldown in case, stuff like this, or when raging strikes goes off on a dps i know to pick up a little extra enmity, the sound design for skills is amazingly well thought up, even if they just shoved the same sounds from 1.0 like chaos thrust, but seriously, i love it, i just find the player grunts hillarious is all. And who can hate the skrillex wubs of gravity when an AST is dpsing? "drop the tank!" wub wub wub wub
