Hi!
I had an idea that would really help me, and hopefully many others, while playing the game. I am going deaf, but it's going very slowly and as a result, I'm highly sensitive to a lot of overlapping and ambient noises. Hearing Greylings? Perfectly fine! Chopping trees? Also fine! How loud the wind, rain and water rushing is in the background (foreground, really) while I'm fighting monsters or chopping trees?
Quite difficult, actually… It's overwhelming and I have to play the game muted most of the time. Surprise troll attacks are very frequent.
I think it would be a really nice addition to be able to edit the levels of more sound types. We have the option of adjusting music and sound effects, but there are quite a few sound effects that are still needed so muting them all is out of the question while exploring. What if we could adjust the level of sound effects, "nature" like the wind and rain sound levels, and adjust music all separately?
