    Hello!

    After asking a bit around I understand that most long term players play muted.

    So why is that so?

    1. The music in dso is way to dramatic with one climax chasing the next. Please keep in mind that those levels get farmed for hours and our brain simply does not work that way in terms of exitement.

    2. Some helpful sounds, such as people using potions ot certain drops have sounds, which is nice. But also every stupid ride, pet, emote, skills, attacks and distracting random sounds are creating a stressing sound atmosphere.

    So please rework the music or offer alternative soundtracks. BP spend way to much money on orchestral versions that do not serve their purpose. For inspirtaions please listen to this:

    It is scary, but not stressing.
    The melodies are enjoybale but not penetrant.
    Melodies are seperated by periods of atmospheric sounds.
    Pauses are used effectively (Music 1.1 ;) )
    Urban area sounds are nice and relaxing to create a contrast.
    They kept it simple, no orchestral overkill. (If you want spend money, spend it on random musics which will help a lot for long term payments)

    Thanks for reading!
