Man. I can't even begin to imagine what trying to balance this game looks like. Whatever it is, I feel like Sakurai is being stirred from his eternal slumber right now.

I’d say replace them with the same if you like how they sound/feel or get something new if you’re up for some change. IMO It’s kind of a good excuse to change it up a bit, but only if you’re feeling it.

That said, I have my Sennheiser 6xx and DT770s and if either died, I’d buy a replacement.

This year's top track on Spotify was a rec from a friend. So I'm here for this music sharing goodness. I AM READY TO BE OVERSTIMULATED!

I also scooped up the NVK Tools Game Audio Bundle. While I already have a good number of solid scripts that get a ton of use, I really wanted to get my hands on workflow and loopmaker to add to my list. Always hunting for efficiency (because I tend to overthink all of the things lol).

I already owned this, but I still can't say enough good things about Kilohearts. Love their plugins and business model. I have their pitch and frequency shifter on my stream deck and those buttons get used more than I care to admit.

I also sprung for Envy. It's hella expensive, but every time I hit a vocal that I could've used it for, I wished I had it. I've made an approximation of this with some side-chain expansion, but this one definitely has given me some great results.

I have so much fun throwing wormhole on content and just toying with the settings. Definitely a neat tool with a ton of fun output.

Man. I feel this. The way I envisioned a large Cheeto with this face when I woke up this morning:
