    In a crowded crafting area (around the scrip vendor in Eulmore on day one) I did not notice any change at all in my auditory experience, because it's the same sound effect as it always was, so it was no different than having a few more people there. I did not even notice the sound had changed to a double ding until I went to craft somewhere alone. Also, the double ding does not add any additional time, because the length of the animation is still the same as it always was.

    All I'm saying is that there are certain people in this forum who will take any little thing that they do not like and make it into a huge problem and act as though SE is the worst developer ever. You can say you don't like something and ask for it to be changed without all the melodrama.

    If the sound effect is really hampering your ability to enjoy crafting, you can turn it off by turning Sound Effects to zero in settings. However, you won't have the other crafting sound effects.

    As for the fishing indicators, that was actually a helpful change as I am now able to fish comfortably with the sound off and still know what size tug I'm getting without having to stare at the pole and try to figure out how far down the light went. I don't play with a controller, so I don't have the benefit of the vibrations. I DO think the sound addition here was unnecessary however.
