Justin11 Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 When we talk about external soundtrack, I mean the music we play different from the in-game soundtracks. It might be from our mobile phone, Compat disc player, MP3 etc. Are you the type that love's playing soundtrack from external device during gaming?

Empire Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 It usually depends on the music. In most games the soundtrack is just there to set the tone and keep you immersed and in the mindset of what you are doing. Most songs during battle are naturally blocked out. But if I was doing games that are little boring ot needs a punch, ETS or just any trucking to driving game or even flying on long flights in MSFS2020 then I put music on, From Chrome or spotify Justin11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m76 Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 The way independence FM was done in GTA was great, outside of that I never listen to external music during gaming as it interferes with the narrative. Justin11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head_Hunter Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 I can only play external soundtracks, when the video game in-game soundtracks are bad, and the their is no cutscenes, nor interesting dialogues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 External soundtrack isn't my thing seriously but it doesn't mean that I can't listen to any if I get to hear one that's worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head_Hunter Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Exactly simulation game is better with external soundtrack. I do play simulation and playing music from my compact disc player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin11 Posted November 9, 2021 Author Share Posted November 9, 2021 Those simulation game soundtrack doesn't increase my immersion makes me feeling emotional appealing towards my time playing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's odd to me too, it plays off to what I like when it comes to in-game soundtracks. That's why I prefer playing external soundtracks when playing simulation games.

Justin11 Posted November 10, 2021 Author Share Posted November 10, 2021 I never played much of the simulation games in order to keep in track of the soundtracks, if they are made quality or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
