If that's fun for you, go for it! I'm looking forward to the new Fire Emblem myself. It's going to be a nice birthday present. :)

A friend of mine explained once that his old workmate, who owned every single color of warhammer paint incidentally had some beardy Magic army consisting of flying undead angels who couldn't be hit and whenever they somehow died instantly respawned 3 more

Drunk post: why is it the year 2022 and the first thing i have to do for every game I install on PC is set music and ambient volume to 15%? When are these loving nerds going to learn that I don't want my eardrums blown our by your garbage rear end music.

Like in my 30-something years on this earth, the only games that have ever had pleasurable music were need for speed underground and Celeste. If you're not in the 2 out of 250 maybe have some humility and realize I don't want your trash music overpowering every other sound.

Also motion blur, film grain, depth of field, head bob, and chromatic aberration. I know unreal and unity or whatever make these easy to implement, but don't enable them by default on a goddamn first person shooter you loving goobers. My eyes are not a loving camera.

as someone who occasionally streams games and also plays them over the top of discord audio I understand your complaint but i have to admit i take some kind of nerd tweaker joy out of balancing the audio levels for things
