>he mutes the game and listens to his own music
I do it all the time. For games where it's mindless grinding or the game's soundtrack and general dialogue/sound effects aren't good or something I have to hear I switch to other music.
It helps a lot in some JRPGs since I've been going back to older ones where grinding is a requirement.

Such as...?
I do that when playing shit like Rocket League

But jazz is perfect for shmups anon.
I remember listening to jimi Hendrix nonstop every time I played the shivering isles dlc for oblivion.
It fit. It was amazing.

Every Final Fantasy
Every Dragon Quest
Every SMT
Earthbound
>>343805232
Some of the SMT games. I know everyone always says you don't have to grind in those games but for one I'm total shit at them and two I like to build up amazing demons. While it isn't as old as the others, Nocturne is one I turned on different music for after a while. The music in Nocturne is fantastic, but when I was trying to just fuse tons of demons and level up I would listen to other stuff. Then I'd turn the game volume back up when I went back to progression.

Excellent bait my friend!
>>343805232
not the same goy but i distinctly remember listening to my dads edgar winter vinyl in the basement on repeat while farming ultimate caves in PSO for Chain sawd
>never got it
>Grinding for some parts in Monster Hunter
>Mining shit in Terraria
>PvP duels in Souls games
For some games and moments it's fine. I'm all for experiencing a game in all aspects even if the music/sound effects are shit, but there are times where a game just has you mindlessly grind or do bullshit and some music can be nice.
>>343804897
Well I don't like to listen the same damn music over and over again as I'm trying to get a rare drop from the monster, so instead I play intense music to grind even faster.
>>343805648
I don't know about Earthbound but Mother requires a FUCK ton of grinding.
>>343804897
>Playing a game with boring grinding/farming/repetition
>The game's music is so good that I want to keep listening to it anyway
>>343807367
And the music is great to go alongside it. I don't see the issue here, you big baby.
>>343804897
If the game's music is shit and I don't need to concentrate much on it I'll just mute it and listen to a podcast. I always do this when playing Binding of Isaac
>>343805648
Are you saying you've never grinded metal slimes in DQ?
>>343804897
>not listening to Sum41 while grinding in pokemon
>>343804897
Only ever did it in mmorpgs. I'm also that guy who would never mute his music when he talked on vent.
>Music in game lasts half a minute and only plays every half hour.
Why even fucking bother?
I'm doing this while I play through the Hexcells trilogy, if anything it helps me focus on the music more.

Edgy "so different n nurdy xDD" 14 year old spotted
games have a limited soundtrack, but my music library is huge
why would i want to listen to the same tracks again and again and again? also there are some times where music just doesnt player.
>>343809224
14 year olds dont listen to sum41 dude
I'm fine with this if it's a multiplayer game you've been playing for a while. However I have a friend that will do this on co-op games on our first playthrough, which is pretty stupid
>>343804897
>he mutes the game and listens to music from a different game
Is this acceptable?
Let's see if we can find the bamboozled newfriend
>>343809224
THERE IT IS
>>343809398
>also there are some times where music just doesnt player
What the fuck are you trying to say?
>>343804897
i do it on overwatch
Imagine how fucking boring someone has to be to listen to a game's soundtrack for years on end and never listening to their own stuff once in a while.
Goddamn.
>>343809527
No self-respecting adult does either.

fucking why, planet robobot
>>343808982
>game has a different song for every hour of the day
I honestly never knew this about animal crossing until I played new leaf, even though I played a fuck ton of the original and a good amount of wild world.
>>343804897
I have to do this with Monster Hunter, when your kill count gets around the 300s of the same monster it gets boring.
>>343810076
How did you not pick up on the music being different in the games?
I'm honestly asking here.
>>343810274
I knew it had different songs of course, I just thought it randomly changed songs every once in a while

I actually encountered someone who muted Guitar Hero and Rock Band because the music "distracted" him.
>>343810186
you get a pass
I dock points off a game for not having separate music sliders
should be illegal for MMOs and MMO-likes (fuck you xenoblade chronicles)
Nigg even Brute Justice theme gets old after a month of progression
>>343804897
I do this while playing Hyperdimension v1
noise is cancer in that game
>>343810753
No you didn't.
That defeats the whole purpose of the game series.

>playing the Ultimate Team gamemode of the newest hand egg simulator
>get tired of the ingame jungle jams being played left and right a month after its release
>start listening to my own shit
Fuck you, OP, you fucking cunt.
>>343804897
But hotline Miami sound track goes with everything op.
I don't MUTE the game I just add my own music.
>>343808031
Aria of Sorrow/Dawn of Sorrow soul farming
>>343804897
I do this on games that I've played several times through unless the soundtrack/sound design is really good.
I also do it with games that have licensed music (GTA etc) but I try to keep appropriate to the era.
