Not necessarily. While male Viera and female Hrothgar are absolutely not required for enjoying the game, job with broken sound design creates some problems.
I really didn't care about the whole male viera and female Hrothgar thing, since I figured it would divert funding and development time from other things. (Like sound design for example.) Though lmao I guess that wasn't the case. 5.1 is what my hope is, but I honestly don't expect it.
Bumping it again, everytime I play the job, which I really like, I miss the old sound effects and can't help but feeling that those we have do not feel right at all.
Please SE! make it happen for 5.1!
I like the new sfx for powder combo and burst strike, but miss the old sfx for everything else
Still following this thread. Haven't touched GNB since the sound changes (I love it as a tank but I just can't stand it's current sounds), hopefully 5.1 brings old sfx back!
Not giving up hope yet.

This is how I hear it. Sorry for the crap quality, I can't find a free and simplistic video editor with basic trim/clip adding functionality. Couldn't add the actual sounds without it screwing up, but at least this conveys the idea lol... I took a box in my house, scraped my pocket knife (knife isn't out, literally just rubbed the side of it) against the box and well... That's accurate to me what I hear beneath the lil sparkly SFX of the heals and weaponskill combo going off.

Yes, please. I want the old sounds back, they were metallic and slashy. New ones are dull and like a baseball bat. I was surprised they didn't fix them in 5.05.
Reminder to submit those suggestions. At least once every week.
Honestly, I'm not a fan of the old or some of the new SFX for Gunbreaker. The old Keen Edge combo sounded like a broken monkey wrench while the new one sounds like cardboard. The only good thing to come out of the change is that the Gnashing Fang combo actually feels like it's doing some damage with those explosions. I'd be all for completely new sound effects rather than reverting to the older ones.
If I die, forgive me. I used to be a Dragoon.
