    I turn all sounds off as soon as I install a game, so I usually forget they even have them. I just turned them back on for a Sim match to hear what they were like, and good grief that was awful.

    Never again.

    Yes.  I play all my 'zen games' with the sound off.
    I played games like Diablo 2, Diablo 3, Hearthstone, MPQ and now Elder Scrolls Legends for years without any sound while listening to other things typically either music, webshows, movies or audiobooks.

    It's off on my phone just due to the fact I'm generally in public if I'm playing on my phone. It seems a bit rude to have the sound blaring. I'd play with the effects on at home, but I'm honestly just too lazy to turn it off and on. If the sound didn't sync between devices, I'd leave effects low on my tablet.

    The last thing I want to do is have the sounds playing when I'm running through the small DDQ node in the bathroom at work. And I do not want to have to remember whether I've left the sound on or off.

    I disabled the music, but the sfx stay on, although not too loud. Except when I'm playing in public transport, then I mute my device.

    Turned it off once to ddq in the toilet at work and never turned it back on. Much prefer it muted.

    My main account is on iOS and like almost all mobile games I play I mute the volume.

    I sometimes a play a second account on steam and I usually have the sound on for that.  It feels weird...

    I only play at home and actually like playing with sound, specially the animations ones  :) 
    I just turn them off only when my battery is low and need to finish some matchs.

    I listen to the sound once in a while for a few minutes but I almost always play without sound.  The same loop is tiring over time.

    Phone always on mute.
    But I often shout the power triggered, specially Hulk smash and Nova's piew piew. :D

    Sometimes I'll play the game at work, either to test a potential bug or just to take a break, so I keep my phone on silent to prevent disturbing my co-workers.

    I turned the music off within weeks of starting to play the game, and turned the sound off within a month or two.  I used to turn the sound on every so often to hear what powers sound like (Squirrel Girl's green made me laugh the first time I heard it, as did Devil Dinosaur's purple,) but I haven't done that in months, if not a year or more.

    Always keep my phone on silent, but sound effects still come thru if I'm connected with headphones or bluetooth. There's no music, guess I muted it at some point. That ambient beeping noise comes thru, but I barely notice it anymore

    Steam player here, play with sound effects since the first week or so. The music it's a seasickness.

    Play without sound, but would also like an option to turn off the character animations. Playing with 4-star Cage and 3-star Strange in the same match pretty much doubles the amount of time the match takes due to all of the *make a protect tile* *Flames of Faltine*

    Make sure to add your voice to this poll

    Maybe it would help if enough people voted for a quicker game.
