Super Reactions - why they're awful and should have the option for disabling (at minimum)

Maghawk

There have been several posts about how annoying Super Reactions are, so I'll try and summarise.

  • They have fullscreen animations - distracting, annoying, surprising, not helpful.
  • They glow when not doing animations - harder to see the reaction symbol
  • They are placed in what was originally the normal reactions button position - muscle memory is a thing.
  • The icons look almost indistinguishable from the normal reactions options at all stages before they fire off.
  • Combine the two above points, and you have regular and repeated accidental use of these visually confusing and distracting displays.
  • Upon deleting these annoyances, you are then prompted to buy more or them. Truly hellish user experience.

And you can't disable any of the above. The suggestion for disabling all reaction animations in the FAQ is very much a "baby out with the bathwater" solution, and also doesn't even change the Super Reactions. Only affects normal reactions.

Give individuals the option to disable seeing and using super reactions, give servers the ability to disable them on a per-server basis as well, or best of all chalk it up to a misstep and remove them entirely.

Thank you for your time.

    Okay and now you’ve swapped the position of _one_ of the super reaction buttons, just to get even more annoying. Are you trying to get me to cancel my nitro?

    Lmao, I just burned up all 5 of those accidentally in 10 minuted because the overlay has those dreaded super reactions all the way to the right, but the normal reactions are all the way to the right when you open it up.

    I suppose this is what we get for accusing them of rock bottom with the user interface. And now another several times I reach for a reaction and keep getting informed that I am now out of those things that we don't want to see.

    By the way, I pay for seven discrete Nitro units, and I have never hated a service or user interface more because of some hostile money grab like this that doesn't even go away after you burn it up involuntarily, or despite how much you pay. Shame on Discord.
