- I've played this game muted a lot. Whenever I'd do a ''cosplay'' build, I'd mute not only the music but the dialogue as well. I grew to love the sound effects so much more because of that.
I truly believe that AC6 is simply one of those games that scored perfectly when it comes to sound design. - Hry
the coral sound design is great
It genuinely feels good to listen to it
the songbirds has my favorite sound in the game
I love them too. The explosions and even the firing itself has so much weight
Sound is so overlooked in games outside of ost imo.
Sound is so essential in video games if you ask me, it's a vital sensory input when it comes to giving a feeling to an enviroment, weapon, action, etc.
The wrong sound design can make or break a game in my opinion.
So glad you said this - I whole heartedly agree with you
I've always loved the sound design in From Software games, from Sekiro, to Bloodborne, and now Armored Core 6. As a composer I really appreciate the work From Software puts into their sound design, but it's a shame most others seldom seem to notice it.
I think Bloodborne to this day has my favourite tracks and sound design -- they just don't miss when it comes to that. Anyhow, I think its awesome that you're a composer -- Keep it up, the world loves music and sound
Sound effects are very important
On of the best examples I can think of is Halo
The Halo combat evolved Shotgun and Pistol feel amazing to use and sound amazing
I still remember the first time a use the Shotgun
Every other weapon struggle a little to take down combat forms flood
But the moment I fire the shotgun ohh boy
The strong loud blast and BOOM!
The flood is dead
Firing and reloading that thing feels amazing
And then Halo 2 came out and it a good game
But the thing they did with the shotgun and pistol it was a sin
I understand the nerf to the damage
But the change of the sound effect was a sin
I didn't feel amazing using those weapons anymore
Armored Core 6 have that same feeling when using some weapons and equipment
For example I love the booster sounds of Balteus
I feel adrenaline rush when that aircraft Fly away from me or avoid my shots
I also love The Enforcer pulse weapon sound
There is a lot of sounds in Armored Core that I love
I really hope we get a DLC or a new game
I agree that AC6 deserved to win some sound design award
This was a fun read. I absolutely agree with you :)
