I like to listen to music and sometimes things like game grumps. What do you put on when the games music gets stale?

Either nothing, or a podcast or something OP. Sometimes music.

I don't really listen to game soundtracks while playing them, and many of the games I play I don't want to be listening to other things either.

Nothing. I'm listening for enemies. In many of the games I play you have to watch out for enemies.

If I"m doing something boring like grinding I'll have a podcast or movie playing in the background.

Nothing, maybe until steam music player gets better, like being able to see folders or having another slider for the game's volume.

The soundtrack!

Nowadays if I'm playing something that doesn't require my full attention like Battle Maison in Pokemon or a minor dungeon in Etrian Odyssey, I'll mute my 3DS and watch a TV show in the background. But that's about it.

I'm a music nerd so I listen to all kinds of poo poo. I spent all 128m of my last Risk Of Rain multiplayer run listening to the Revengeance soundtrack though, and the runs before that were to the sound of various Sonic OSTs.

Usually it's not game soundtracks though. Doom metal like Swallow The Sun or Yob is good to space out to for grinding, something shoegazey like Faunts or later Earth albums for exploring, or just saying gently caress it and putting it on shuffle to let the rock, country, dance, pop, metal, classical, etc just flow

OP, I listen for the other players and when I hear them I scream "I HEAR YOU I loving HEAR YOU YOU'RE DEAD I loving HEAR YOU"

then I punch the tv screen until my fists are bleeding and covered in little bits of plastic, op.

The actual soundtrack if it's good, podcasts, sometimes audiobooks, sometimes music if it's appropriate with the game.

When playing CSGO or COD, extremely loud dubstep. It works.

Just remembered that listening to an Aquabats album while I was making Sims is how I got into their music and to a lesser extent, ska.
