Rolling Dice Emotes Result Notification

    While going through the Merfolk's Lullaby Awards voting, I noticed that under accessibility features there is "Rolling Dice Results Notification".

    Apparently this was added way back in Season 5 (2.4.1), which I vaguely remember... According to the Release Notes:

    When one of the Rolling Dice Emotes is performed, the result is now shown in the notification window as well as the player’s hand. Players using ‘Let Games Read to Me’ will also have the result narrated.

    I have never seen that notification when rolling a die, and I've just spent the last 30 mins trying to find a setting for it. I've tried narration for emotes but that doesn't work.

    Does anyone know how to actually enable this feature?

    (A side note: please, Rare, reorganise the settings menu. It's really bad for finding anything. It was a lot better when there was actually an accessibility section)

    Tried that. But is that not just related to text to speech anyway?

    I thought there was a way to get the result to display as a text notification?

    So it gives you the notice in top left corner but doesn't read it to you?

    I can't upvote to get your attention and I'm not sure editing will help.

    Previous post lol.

    Does it give you the quick chat message but not read it to you?

    It doesn't give me ANY notification. I'm trying to get the top left text notification working. I do not need it to read to me.

    I, too, want to know why I don't see the text notification. Couldn't see it when patch 2.4.1 first came out either.

    Yeah, I don't know if it's broken, or just that no-one knows how to enable it. It might work only with narration, but that doesn't seem like the intention according to the release notes for 2.4.1 - which makes it seem like there should be a text-only notification as well.

    I've never seen it myself, and I've never seen it on any streams working as described.
