[Suggestion] Have some kind of animation to help us know what "food buff gone" noise is

36 votes

Took me a looooong time to realise what the "food buff gone" noise meant
It might be worth having some sort of small shaking/pulsing animation as food buffs disappear so it's more obvious that they have gone. For the longest time I was so confused at the noise that happens with what seemed like nothing happening on screen or in the world.

If it were a different sound effect it would be helpful (i.e. a short power down sound that indicates a buff expired). I think it currently uses the same sound as the weather alerts, which had me confused as well.

Oh, this feature vote just explained to me what I think I've been hearing this whole time and wondering what that sound was (58 hours of play time).

Learned something again. I've identified that horn only as urgend hunger/thirst signal. But even for this, the sound wasn't intuitively pointing to it's cause.
I would suggest the character saying he's thirsty/hungry (as in green hell). Worked much better for me.
Not the most pressing issue though.... for me at least.
