Choice of notification sounds & Old Deaf Ears

GGG, please...Review the choice of sounds used for messages and trade notifications.

Both my husband and I are older, and our hearing reflects that. The choice of chat notifications are extremely difficult to hear when things are quiet and impossible if there is anything else going on in game or in the physical space we're occupying. It's almost like the tones fall inside the "deaf zone" for us both. We've asked our young adult kids if they can hear the sounds and it was a mixed response from them on the clarity against the background noises.

We've tried adjusting the sound options, looking for a fix, and it doesn't really help. When contrasted against POE 1, notifications are much easier to hear and stand out more against the background of the game than they do in POE 2. It's EA, maybe this could be looked into and a different sound picked?

I agree. It's hard AF to hear the whisper notification.
Oh, yes. Please bring the loud "ding" from poe1. Thanks



FYI - In game settings you can decrease the sound all all effects, increase the sound of messages. helps a bit.
I also have the same problem
