After the rest of this announcement
This week, Riot Games introduced the community to the skins that will be coming with League of Legends patch 14.4. Six champions will receive new porcelain-themed skins, and Kindred will receive its skin prestige from the same lineage released in 2022. If splashshirts are visually appealing, there is one aspect that players find difficult to reach.
“The sound effects are too loud”
It was on Reddit that players raised an issue regarding the skins, a voice issue. For many, Some effects are very strong, even terrifying, and more precisely Miss Fortune. It’s true that when you hear the sound of his ultimate with porcelain skin, the result is a little bleeding from your ears.
If you also have a hearing problem, as this player points out, the results are obviously worse. But those who haven’t are also not fans of the sound effects: “Usually the sound effects are too loud. I’m not hard of hearing, but I am I find all the sound effects for each skin terrifying and generally disturbing to listen to.” Another community member added, “Listening to Miss Fortune’s ultimate makes my ears bleed. What is that? I’m already playing the game at 30% volume, I have to mute the ability sounds at this rate.”, Or “That Ultimate from Miss Fortune really left a scar in my ear. It sounds like metal pipes from a skyscraper.” Can we read in the comments.
All players seem to agree that Riot Games failed on sound effects, an aspect rarely criticized, but in this particular case, it looks like they’re right.
Possible improvement?
Sometimes, when the community’s discontent is loud enough to be heard, developers take action. They have changed the skins even before their release when many players pointed out more or less obvious bugs. At the moment, no member of the cosmetics team has commented under the post, but hopefully one of them has noticed the problem so that the developers can make the necessary changes. Our ears implore you to do so.
As a reminder, New porcelain skins are scheduled for Thursday February 22, 2024 with patch 14.4. According to the official riot games schedule.
