Just wondering what yall listen to while you play. I myself tend to listen to my own music and then have the in game volume all muted, however the other people i was talking to said that they only ever had the in game audio on or they listen to their own music but have the sound effects on. so I was just wondering what was the more popular option out there.

    I have around thirty different channels on Pandora and put it on random play.

    If the Rockies (baseball) are playing I listen to the game.

    If I put the headphones on, I listen to the in-game audio & music.
    If I don't put the headphones on (I'm just doing something repetitive like writs or event dailies, or I'm multitasking in another window or tablet, etc), I don't listen to anything.

    Depends on what I'm doing
    Questing, dungeon runs, vMA etc: I listen to the ingame music and sound effects (immersive / useful).

    Housing: Some chillaxing fantasy bard music, or some themed music to get inspired and get into a mood (listened to the old Pharaoh game soundtrack while decorating Redguard houses, ah nostalgia :lol:)

    Dolmens, mat farming, zombie grinding, etc: Some epic or upbeat fantasy music so I don't fall alseep. :grimace:

    If I’m alone it’s whatever I’m in the mood for. Causally with friends game sounds are turned off only listen to chat. In trials, game sound in background, chat taking priority.

    If she yells at you instead of joining you with her own controller, you probably shouldve gotten a different wife.

    Listen to in game music most of the time but if I am running dolmens for fun it’s rock music all the way. Currently Earth Rocker by Clutch is my favourite but also listen to Argus by Wishbone Ash and Liege and Lief by Fairport Convention.

    Crafting and fishing I’m usually watching/listening to a playlist of live concerts, comedy shows, news, and podcasts. Currently on a playlist of Ghost and Tool concerts from the 90s.

    Otherwise I just listen to the game.

    Full Spotify/Pandora if doing casual stuff. Spotify turned down so I can hear game if doing more involved things that require listening. Netflix while grinding/farming.
