Do you like putting background music while playing doom?

[Xeriphas1994]

Although I fall on the "purist wanker" side of any DWF discussion, and most of my games are older than Doom, MIDIs somehow have aged so poorly that they actively distract me from play. I collect Amiga tracker music, and whenever I find something in the ambient / downtempo styles of polished 1990s shooters, I add it to the Doom playlist.

that's why you get new soundfonts! but i agree, cause i did say earlier that i'm tired of the original midis to the point where i mute them in pwads. i only will listen to them if i'm playing the og iwads.

It really depends on what kind of mood i'm in. Most of the time I like to listen to the music in game, I actually like the midis alot. Especially if i'm playing a custom wad I like to listen to whatever music they put in. But if i'm replaying like Doom 1 I just listen to my own music or listen to a YouTube video, because i've heard those songs so many times.

I respect mapper's decision with music, so I listen what they provide with their creation. I'd like to if someone would do the same with my chosen tracks... but I guess it's way too much to ask.

Generally I'll play the game with the music first, as intended, then I'll turn off the in game music and substitute it with my own tunes/podcast/scary stories!
