So do I begrudge a developer, whose lifelong dream has been to tell a story in one of Square's flagship RPGs, for taking steps to make sure more people can enjoy that story, even people who don't want to take what they might perceive as a gamble by subjecting themselves to unpredictable social experiences? Not at all.
I agree with you the story is the game and I loved every moment, but the crafting noises I cannot take and as soon as I hear them I leave. Yes I can turn off the special effects but I have to do that every time I see someone crafting. My ears simply cannot take the punishment and id rather be alone.
