Any chances we see something in the Live Letter today? Those new sounds in the benchmark were promising, I just hope they at least touch on it once during the presentation. It's been way too long, but now is the time they'd need to be thinking about it if we want to actually see change.

There was, yes, but mostly in the latter part of the initial combo, and with other abilities. Sounds great now. They better not change it again.

Loved the new actions, however still upsetting that the 1-2-3 combo still sounded like a pipe/bat instead of a blade. Might just be me but I do believe they have done work on the continuation combo, it sounded way better than before (more of the blade and less drowned out by the explosions yet they explosion's still sound crisp and impactful so a perfect mix. Don't know though). Here's hoping they can polish up the 1-2-3 sounds by giving them a bit more blade and should be good for Endwalker.

Sounds like the "new" SFX are just going to be the default moving forward boyos.

Eh, even so I feel that they did a great job with other abilities. It now has all the slashes and booms where it counts, on top of some more bells and whistles.

your basic 1 2 3 still sounds like a bat hitting a semi-hard object.

Yeah the 1-2-3 from the job trailer sounds the same (bad). But at this point I'm just "whatever" about it.. Because I'm in a position where I don't have to care anymore -- because of reasons.

The abilities that will be new in 6.0 that we saw in the job action trailer sound pretty great, though.

Listening to the audio from the job action trailer, it does sound like there's at least been a little work done on the horrendous sound quality. Main combo, while still wooshy, seems to have been given back a teeny bit of its metallic clang; but sadly no trigger pulling from combo action 3 as far as I could tell. The rest at least sound okay. I guess I'll have to wait to see how it feels and sounds in-game when EW comes out. Reaper sounds pretty great too, so I'm expecting a downgrade for that one after launch.

Compared it to the current in-game sounds and I think it's the exact same. Probably this issue is too niche for them to notice and if they haven't addressed it yet I sadly don't think they will. It's a bummer because our 1,2,3 combo sure sounds bad to me.

Yeah, you're right, actually. I went and compared the sound quality of the current sounds vs the ones from the trailer and they're the same. Hopefully we have... the means.. to uh.. make it sound less shitty at launch. I could care less about anything else but the main combo.
