Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131

I feel like I've seen one or two games that tried to make the digital extras an "experience", but most just give you an MP3 folder. Honestly why the fuck do people care though, just download the flac/MP3 files yourself, from a better source quality anyway.

tripple As all do EXEs or baked ingame stuff now

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:15 PM games

almost none give you raw files

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:15 PM games

thats literally almost only indies

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:15 PM games

or double As

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:16 PM games

ESPECIALLY if its japanese

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 3, 2024 6:16 PM games

Elden Ring

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 3, 2024 6:16 PM games

It was just a folder

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:16 PM games

i mena a lot of indie devs probably don't even have lossless sources availible

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:16 PM games

from is quite literally the definition of people that avoid trends

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 3, 2024 6:16 PM games

That's the most recent AAA one I bought that I remember

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:16 PM games

i suspect bandai had nothing to do with that as well

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:16 PM games

because bandai does a LOT

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:16 PM games

of

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:16 PM games

gay ass EXE OSTs

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 3, 2024 6:17 PM games

I usually rail against DRM, but given that it's Steam(where you shouldn't be buying music anyway)

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:17 PM games

no come on spooky, everyone needs to buy the phijkchu quest ost on steam

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 3, 2024 6:17 PM games

I do like the new Steam music feature

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:18 PM games

it's annoying how it doesn't show you any file metadata at all

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 3, 2024 6:18 PM games

Where you can have a soundtrack you own be BG for the store/client

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:18 PM games

and how the "media viewer" has no order

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 3, 2024 6:18 PM games

Uh, are you on the beta client Pirate?

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 3, 2024 6:18 PM games

I think it does

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:18 PM games

well it has an order

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:18 PM games

but the devs can't set it (us)

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:18 PM games

so it's basically random

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:18 PM games

okay but does it show you music tags

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:18 PM games

no

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:19 PM games

gay

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:19 PM games

it doesn't show you tags or even artist names

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:19 PM games

lol

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:19 PM games

even the fucking track names it just takes from a csv file the devs have to supply

Phijkchu_Pikachu Feb 3, 2024 6:19 PM games

Phijkchu_Pikachu Feb 3, 2024 6:19 PM games

mine has order

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:19 PM games

whats the point if it doesnt show title artist album, the year the track was published, the genre, a lore commont, the album covers artist, the composer and the number of the disc

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:19 PM games

pika i mean the media files, images included

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:19 PM games

which most soundtracks probably won't have

Phijkchu_Pikachu Feb 3, 2024 6:20 PM games

I'll install one to see what you mean

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 3, 2024 6:20 PM games

Ok yeah, this is more barebones than I thought

Spooky Phijkchu Feb 3, 2024 6:21 PM games

Again, don't buy music (or anime) via Steam

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:21 PM games

i mean it's not like anyone really wants or needs it to be that good, it's basically just a way to donate to devs

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:21 PM games

or for devs to hope people buy it for some reason

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:21 PM games

yeah download all your music from..........

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:21 PM games

you can't beat just having the files loaded into foobar2000 or whatever other audio library player you wanna use

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:21 PM games

soulseek?

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:21 PM games

yeah soulseek

Garbage Feb 3, 2024 6:21 PM games

Winamp

Phijkchu_Pikachu Feb 3, 2024 6:21 PM games

Yeah, only ost I actively bought was the huniepop one, but that was only because I wanted to throw the dev more cash

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:22 PM games

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:22 PM games

you use soulseek so

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:22 PM games

your dms can just be this

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:22 PM games

because youre not sharing 2 tbs of music

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:22 PM games

even though im sharing like 30gbs

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:22 PM games

and soulseek just doesnt register that

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:22 PM games

really cool client

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:22 PM games

i just download from youtube if it's availible now, it's high quality and has decent metadata

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:22 PM games

youtube is not

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:22 PM games

high quality

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:22 PM games

it is though

Phijkchu_Pikachu Feb 3, 2024 6:23 PM games

based rabi-ribi ost

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:23 PM games

it cuts all the high frequencies

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:23 PM games

and its compressions weeeeeeeeird

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:23 PM games

the autogenerated music playlists aren't as compressed as just videos

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:24 PM games

those dont have the compression issues (because its just youtube music redirected on youtube) but it has the frequency issues still IIRC

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:24 PM games

well the actual problem with youtube is sometimes the publishers pick a bad mix of a release to be the one that gets sent to all the streaming shit

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:24 PM games

like the retarded weird stereo mixes remasters of some old music do for some reason

Garbage Feb 3, 2024 6:24 PM games

Pirate use to listen to music on degraded Cassette tapes, anything is a step up from that

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:24 PM games

where it's half in one ear half in the other

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:25 PM games

Replying to Garbage #garbageatgaming

Pirate use to listen to music on degraded Cassette tapes, anything is a step up from that

i actually was in music poverty until recently, only having enough file space to listen to sequended music

Garbage Feb 3, 2024 6:26 PM games

but tracker music is high key kino

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:26 PM games

yeah fr fr garbage

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:27 PM games

unfortunately only the dedicated tracker player can play a collection of them consistently so it's hard to mix them in to normal playlists

Phijkchu_Pikachu Feb 3, 2024 6:27 PM games

I use an mp3 to midi converter to listen to all my music in a midi player

Phijkchu_Pikachu Feb 3, 2024 6:27 PM games

it is optimal

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:27 PM games

i download like 30% of my music from soulseek because its quick, like 30% from khinsider, sittingonclouds and jpopsingles then the remainder is shitty youtube rips, soundcloud rips or torrenting from random torrents

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:28 PM games

khinsider is good for random soundtracks that aren't collected anywhere else

legorhin Feb 3, 2024 6:28 PM games

I transcribe songs into musescore and listen to that playback

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:28 PM games

because for some reason good all around music sites dont exist and everyones split between private trackers and soulseek or other p2p clients

Jaz Feb 3, 2024 6:28 PM games

I scratch the notes into a rock and play them back on my panflute.

reorruatrnte Feb 3, 2024 6:28 PM games

there is also that one site called like... hc64? or something that uploads a large number of soundtrack rip sfor games

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:29 PM games

sittingonclouds is for i use for gamerips

taxes Feb 3, 2024 6:29 PM games

they r pretty fast
