Epic, I am a deaf gamer, and ask you to please enable sound effects when the audio visualizer is enabled

In Epics defense (or really any company that tries to help people who just want to use their product) they probably thought they were doing right by the whole “deaf” community by adding the feature in. Problem is I can guarantee they didn’t really ask the deaf community about the feature.

It almost seems to come off as ignorant, as if they assumed everyone was the same and they’ll add the feature and everything will be A-OK. But I understand they probably don’t have anyone in the office with experience in this matter.

Hopefully they get in contact with someone like you OP. It would be easier for them to adjust this feature with someone who has.. yanno, experience in this matter, other than just “googling” how deaf people play games or coming up with some solution without an actual source for information.
