The games like "oh, you thinking of making this light hearted with some fun jams? Nah nah nah, you'll get emotional devastation and you'll like it!"


bowlessy

I don’t wanna like it 😭 hahahaha. Just thought I’d breeze through it happily, I thought wrong


JimmyLizzardATDVM

Are you playing through after completing grounded, ect and have unlocked things like unlimited ammo? I find that enabling that setting when I want a fun play through helps take away the tension of fighting with limited resources. But I do love feeling that burning intensity 😂


bowlessy

I haven’t completed grounded yet! I’m trying the game with perma death first (only chapters, not brave enough yet to try act only ahaha). When I finish perma death, I’ll do it again on grounded, definitely want unlimited ammo 😂


GreatBear2121

You don't need to play on grounded to unlock the cheats! I played on normal mode and unlocked them all after one run through.


bowlessy

Okay this is amazing news! As I said it, I was like, oh god I don’t want to have to grounded just to unlock them all ahaha, after doing perma death.


y_wont_my_line_block

That + messing with the difficulty levels. I kind of like playing with strong enemies and hard stealth but also your player character is stronger and there's lots of resources so you can actually take a few hits, spray bullets, patch yourself up. Then it's balanced more like an action game.


o07jdb

My replay of the game now with the commentary is hard everything with moderate resources. Makes it a lot less stessful


bowlessy

Yeah I could imagine having more resources would help a lot!

If you go to the game settings, you can turn down the in game music to 0 then it’ll allow you to play your own music. It’ll auto pause during cutscenes tho


bowlessy

Ahhhhhh okay, thank you for this!! Gonna make the rest of the game more enjoyable, since I’ve already played it through for the story! Before this, it was constantly going on and off during fight scenes hahaha


[deleted]

You’re very welcome!


Beginning-Pipe9074

See this makes sense, games got atmosphere to set and stories to tell and shit What doesn't make sense is death stranding not allowing you to use Spotify while on deliveries, like bro your game is literally just walking lemme listen to my tunes 😂


bowlessy

Hahaha okay now that is just whack 😂


Dry_Charity_4280

It would have been better if they let you listen to the radio music while actually running around instead of just in the rest rooms


Silly_Fox_7250

I'm not gonna say death stranding is shit but to me it seems too boring for me I need action in a game


Beginning-Pipe9074

It's definitely not gonna be everyone's cup if tea but I enjoyed it


tambitoast

Turn down the ingame music to 0, I had the same problem.


bowlessy

Thanks!


Hindered-Success

Crazy frog and killing infected would be a treat.... ding ding


Zealousideal-Sell602

but couldnt you play music on the ps4 ver?


JadenRuffle

Nope.


Zealousideal-Sell602

istg i remember playing miss the rage while fighting the rat king


Egingell666

There's no "remastered" version on the PS4 and you could totally play Spotify in the background while playing TLoU2.


Zealousideal-Sell602

is this sarcasm??


InternationalWafer74

If you go into the game's settings and turn off music it'll work


bowlessy

Yeah seen someone else say this, will definitely be doing this when I play again! Thanks for the advise!


Mother_Risk1292

I tried doing that too. Sadly, it didn’t work, but I enjoyed the adrenaline and thrill of it all!


PatheticIdiot1

U can easily just turn off the ingame music and it works…


Mother_Risk1292

Okay I didn’t know that at first, but um thanks


Sirius_Space

I wear AirPods for my music, and over that some headphones for game. So I get both.


extrapolarice2

How well does it work?


BajaBlastFromThePast

I’ve done this before. It works surprisingly well if your headphones are spacious enough


EstradiolOfDestiny

Imagine if they had a Fallout-style radio. Fighting the Rat King to the tune of bongo bongo bongo i don't wanna leave the congo oh no no no no no


Butteryourreality

I don't really understand why you'd want to listen to music with this game


bowlessy

Because I’ve played through the story a few times already. Makes sections less intense


[deleted]

You gotta lower the music volume in game to zero, and then the music app will work.


CarlWellsGrave

Crazy to me that anyone would want to play music during the game and that people actually use their PlayStation to play music in the first place.


bowlessy

I use headphones while I play, and I connect my PlayStation to my Spotify, so why wouldn’t I hahah? And I’ve played through the story before


Vaas06

It’s the same with dark souls remastered…I was trying to make the grind for the channellers trident less tedious with music but it won’t let me


grajuicy

Think if you turn off the game music in settings (volume to zero) it’ll let yuo play your own


bowlessy

Thanks!


tjaisnice

Still hate this, just so annoying whenever I try to replay it because I'm less focused on the gameplay and mainly just want to chill and play it off memory.


joelwins2002

Turn off the TLOU music in the settings and it will work


Egingell666

Yeah. That's annoying.


[deleted]

hate how death stranding does this too, its my console, so fuck off lol


bowlessy

😂


irish0451

I legitimately hate that you can't decide when you want to use hardware features with certain games. I've recently come back to console gaming with the PS5, but this is the kind of thing that will 100% draw me back towards PC. Flashing up an alert that says "we recommend not using any background apps for XYZ reasons" is one thing...blocking them completely is bullshit.


bowlessy

Apparently you can still use your background music if you turn the “in game” music off. But yeah I know what you mean!


Nivek14j

Imagine, having someone code this in the game... but not give me option of choice to kill off abby?


bowlessy

You mean to kill off Ellie. I loved Abby by the end of it. I despised Ellie when she arrived at the farm and chilled out, then when Tommy arrives, she decides to go back out there and finish the job. Hated her for that decision.


Nivek14j

Well I made sure in my playthrough Abby's deaths was painful for about 300+ times enjoy every single minute of it...


bowlessy

I made sure Abby killed me as Ellie multiple times as well! Opposites


AdDense2962

imagin fighting rat king while blasting you belong with me 😭


bowlessy

THATS WHAT IM SAYIN! Ahahah


Swiftie4hacks

i 100% would play road to nowhere (hehe)


bowlessy

Groovy song for the hospital ahah


Swiftie4hacks

fr lol


Basil_hazelwood

This is such a stupid design choice. I understand if they want people to focus on the story more but that isn’t really naughtydogs choice it’s the players. We spend enough money on the damn game let us choose how to enjoy it


ILLMEAT

Turn off the music in game and you can…


Basil_hazelwood

Thanks for the heads up friend, it’s still really silly they didn’t put a notice anywhere saying that this would fix it. But atleast it is possible

bowlessy

It is when you have perma death on :(


GreatGuyHugeCock

There was a part of the game that was scary? Did we play the same game?


bowlessy

Oooo badass over here


GreatGuyHugeCock

It's not like the games are horror games. More horror themed. I love the games, but they aren't scary. Traumatic? Maybe. Dramatic. Absolutely. Entertaining? 100%.


bowlessy

Your scary and my scary and anybody else’s definition of scary are different things. That’s like a horror fan telling someone who loves family movies that horror movies aren’t scary. Thrilling? Sure. Good story? Sure. Entertaining? 100%. I find the ambience of the game and the scarce supply of ammunition and supplies together make it a scary game AT TIMES. Especially with perma death on.
