Why did games ever go 3D? Why couldn't game technology have stopped at the Genesis and SNES?
Cameron Carter

Microsoft just came out with Project Acoustics for Unity and Unreal Engine a few days ago.
Christian Stewart
It's 2004 all over again. We had this shit 18 years ago.
Angel Ward
stereo surround sound and such exists, games just didn't take full advantage
Dylan Wilson
Steam Audio has been a thing for a while.

If you like this kind of stuff, you owe it to yourself to play Half-Life Alyx. Having head-tracked sound is unbeatable.
Jaxon Collins
Echo and other effects feels bad, clear voice communication is more important than neat but ultimately unimportant tricks.
Brandon Garcia
Doesn't Hunt: Showdown already have this?
Parker Perez
Pretty sure lots of games do, or something similar. I think Tarkov is another notable example along those lines, where previously its positional audio was super fucked so they spent a lot of time trying to fix it.
Gavin Gonzalez
>dude echo and bass
Cameron Lopez
It's a nice technology but I think you necessarily need headphones for it to work and I believe most people are playing with stereo systems from their TVs or something.
Connor Kelly
Turns out you can't hear shit from 3W TV speakers so people don't care about audio.
Cameron Lee
Are there any games with binaural audio?
Ian Martin
Because the industry has no good engineers left youtube.com
Michael Harris
Source?
Landon Miller
didnt goldsrc do something similar
Ryder Clark
I actually did my thesis on raytraced sound.
Jace Williams
>muh accurately modeled audio physics
I hate it. Cs 1.6 did it better than cs:go. Stop trying to innovate when the old version "just werks"
Julian Campbell
EAX was based and Windows Vista killed it.
FUCK MICROSOFT
