Why are the sound effects SO LOUD compared to the music??

That is very strange with that and CRAZY main menu animations to even get into the game otherwise it looks like it could be fun like people are saying LOL XD

pretty sure you can reduce sound effect volume in the settings menu.

Main menu animations? The title screen is fairly static from what I can tell. Unless you mean the crazy backdrop for character creation? Yeah, it was a little overwhelming for a moment on my first run as well.

Also, personally, I run all of my sound settings in game on 80% Master, music, sound effects, and whatever else are all set to 80%. However, not only do I play on Xbox, but we probably have different monitors, speakers, or headphones. Your ideal settings probably wont match mine, but just play with it a bit.

It updates the audio levels real time as you adjust them, you don't need to save to hear what it sounds like unless your gonna back out of the menu, so it's not too bad to mess with various levels.
