Vote for GNB Sounds

[NessaWyvern]

I'm aware of what they are, but the wording of the previous user doesn't make it sound like it's a trigger. I'm aware they're not "just" headaches but I feel like saying GNB's sounds triggering them is a bit on the nose. Moreso I want to say, "you're telling me until this day, EVERYTHING else in the game souunded just fine but GNB's sound effects were the ONE set of sounds(specifically every single skill they have?) are what trigger your migraines?". In any case, you've actually posted quality and put effort into your post, I respect that and I accept the idea to a degree.

Well, it's like this, just as a very specific kind of light would trigger mine, it doesn't seem unreasonable to me that a very specific sound could trigger hers, perhaps GNB just had a specific range of sounds that made it especially triggering.
I (luckily) only get silent migraines nowadays since my hormones have settled down a bit ( I just get days of being unable to focus and think properly) but to this day, flashing flourecent lights really do make me feel temporarily unwell so I try to avoid them, so to me it seems completely reasonable that a period of harsh GNB sounds may make her feel temporarily unwell.

In fact, Holy spam makes me feel a little unwell (just like, a slight tense feeling in my head, and a tiny bit of nausea) so I tend to have party visual effects turned down low, luckily it's not so bad that I can't handle it, but when I have to Holy spam, I tend to look away from the screen a bit during the stun period.

If multiple people with sound-triggered migraines are being triggered by the same thing, then it's understandable that squeenix changed it. A lot of people with light-triggered migraines also get triggered by flourecent light like I do, for example, so it's not unheard of that a lot of people are being triggered by the same thing.

There's also some curious links between migraines and epilepsy, if you have migraines with aura, you'll more likely to have family members with epilepsy, and they share many of the same traits. Cartoons globally already lower the frequency of flashing lights ever since that unfortunate pokemon episode, so it seems fair that Squeenix would change the sounds to reduce triggers. That might help explain the "why", anyway.
