Weird things you do in vidya

Disable the HUD and background music whenever possible.

A surprising amount of games still work well after disabling the HUD.

Ok, HUD I kind of understand, but disabling the music? Why would you ever do that?

Not him but i've heard people kind of enjoyed just walking about in The Witcher 3 with the music off. Apparently there's a lot of good sound that just gets obscured for the most part.

Either I just enjoy listening to other background sounds or I'm listening to my own playlist.

I play for an hour, and then I take a 10 min break

Disgusting

I mean whatever suits you but I think you're missing out on a lot of things a game wants to do this way. Might try >>381720473 though, sounds interesting

Sometimes a game can have top tier ambience but only one short, shitty music track on loop.

I always play in windowed mode. Don't like not being able to see the rest of what's going on.

It's really not as compulsive as I made it sound, I usually play for a few hours with the OST on unless it's an open world RPG like Witcher or TES, but I eventually I find myself playing other music I like instead.

Same.

Haven't replayed most souls games because I just want to be a knight with sword and board.

I find magic in most games completely uninteresting. Except for fucking Tibia, I don't remember actually liking magic on vidya.

Try to devise the most dumbass gimmick strategy possible and beat the game that way.

Still need to get around to S-Ranking Phantom Pain while only using grenades.
