  Ah fuck. Sorry man, I hope someone can figure it out. It’s a very new game, so hopefully more people take enough notice for a fix to be implemented.

  Otherwise, I found an article which seems to allude to advanced volume settings to ‘normalise audio’, on an Xbox, in a similar way: support.xbox.com/…/choosing-speaker-audio-output

  If you’re using a Playstation, it may be worth digging around in your system settings. Sometimes the option is referred to as ‘equalise’, ‘dynamic range’, etc.

  Hope this helps!

  Sponsorblock usually helps with that.

  I installed the game myself and had a look, unfortunately you’re right. My speakers are decent with hearing everything, however I can definitely notice the vocals being considerably lower than the music and such.

  There is a way to normalise audio levels from within Windows sound settings, you just have to remember to revert once you’re done playing.
  This seems to be a good article about it: pureinfotech.com/normalize-sound-volume-windows-1…

  It’s a workaround, but it should help with the game and anything else you’d have this issue with. If you’re using Linux, unfortunately I can’t help. Good luck!

  This sounds like the issue I had a good while ago, before realising something I was using was trying to output as surround sound, whereas I only had stereo speakers (so some sounds seemed normal, some incredibly low).

  Just thought of giving that a mention. It may be worth having a look in your game settings, if there is an option to output as Stereo.

  That’s a blast from the past. Thanks for the shout!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's a cancelled game you really miss?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  My word, I remember playing this when I was a teenager (and I’m in my mid-30s now).

  I remember doing all those trick movements, the slash and dash, wall climbs, weapon switching for quick dash etc.
  Then several months into playing, I found out people were using macros for those instead of… Pressing all the keys manually…
  My hands hurt so much until that discovery.

  When I was a kid, I went on a plane with my mum and we had to walk through a smoking section at one point (we were in the non smoking part).

  It was a memory I wouldn’t forget, not that it was anything spectacular though it smelt rather bad. Ironic since I mix tobacco with my weed now a fair bit (unless I’m vapourising).

  Now it just surprises me that smoking was ever allowed inside aircrafts. Absolutely mad times we have come from.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft is reportedly killing Skype⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I remember when Skype first came out, when I was a teenager. I called a random guy in Japan; he was learning English, I wanted to learn Japanese (as is tradition for teenage anime fans). It was a very kind series of calls, and we talked a bit about Japanese culture too. He taught me, rather patiently, how to pronounce certain basic words properly.
  It’s a shame the server was treated like it has been. There was great potential in connecting people.

  Wherever you are, random Japanese dude I forgot the name of, konbanwa!!

  I thought that’s what the question was asking about? I’m confused.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What would happen if I took a thc gummy as a suppository?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You’d get medicinal qualities, and a body relaxation, however you wouldn’t get a cerebral high as the THC is not processed in a way that would allow it (when used anally).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon is changing what is written in books⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think that’s pretty much it. Future proofing seems to be the idea I’m getting, that and customisations/custom firmware. I used to have custom screensavers on one many years ago, which I’m going to do again.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon is changing what is written in books⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not a recommendation, saying mine is not too old. Random info as part of discussion.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon is changing what is written in books⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve got an old Kindle, but not too old, which I jailbroke just yesterday with Winter break. I recommend that method for those considering getting drm free usage out of their device (instead of it contributing to ewaste).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pixelfed's first plateau in progress⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  (This is a serious question)

  Are Pixelfed communities generally accepting of cannabis related content, or is that seen as a no go on most servers/connections made with an account?
  I recently started using Instagram here and there because of cannabis related communities and such, which they seem rather relaxed with at the moment (just to connect with folks), and a transition could start for me granted there is an opportunity for sensible cannabis communities to exist - I’m a medical user and it has to be a part of my life due to the required usage for my conditions, I hope this is understandable.

  Regardless of if the answer to my query isn’t favourable to me, I hope this platform expands and continues to gather a larger userbase.

  I’ve been to Bruges and it is always going to be one of my favourite places on Earth, and I’ve literally only been once and for a few days at best.

  Be careful with the lambic beer, is a warning I was given and one I give to everyone whilst there (since I visited back when I was able to drink alcohol). It’s too damn tasty, and very easy to be rather drunk before you even know it.
