I discovered recently that a few of my friends turn the sound completely off when they play most computer games. I always thought this was weird for two reasons.
1. For me sound is one third of the gaming experience (the other two thirds being story and mechanics). A lot of people put a lot of effort into composing music and sound effects to add to the game as a whole, and it would be silly to ignore that.
2. I think having sound on improves my reactions.
Do you agree with me? Or do you mute the in-game sounds? Do you mute them to play your own music instead, or so you can better hear your friends if you're in-call?
Edit: Never mind.
