He’s 100% right. I looked at the chat for a minute and they’re all fucking dorks. Audio is fine on my end.
The stream is 100% worth it for the calls afterwards. There’s an absolutely perfect moment with Mitch when Wiger is talking about baldur’s gate
both wiger rants were good as hell. so rare that he’s the one railing into the fans instead of mitch.
Second rant was about a hypothetical situation where Blackrock buys Wendy’s and waters them down by taking away their unique sides (baked potato and chili).
they both were about the people complaining about the sound. the first time he just yelled and was like fix it on your end i hate you people and the second time was when he was like railing on about how stupid you must be to think it was an issue on their end lol
I’m pretty tired of explaining this but here’s the thing. The audio from our end was all the way up. Nick and Mitch were close to redlining most of the show I literally couldn’t turn it up any more. Their audio levels in OBS were the same, all the way up and almost peaking. The quiet audio issues were not on our end. I couldn’t do anything else to fix it. Trust me, I tried everything I could! I asked Moment if there was anything on their end that would be messing with the levels and they told me no, everything sounds great on their end. I asked a few people who were having issues in the chat to try a few fixes and they worked! So based on that it was pretty easy to assume the issue was out of my control and on the user end. I posted this on another thread but most browsers and TVs have compression or splitters built that help simulate “surround sound” or even out levels between streaming apps. These can have an adverse effect on things like this stream because they hyper-focus on the human voice and do weird things to it. These settings are typically on by default and unless you know to turn them off, they’re on. This is why I asked people to stop streaming to TVs and to try a different browser. And that fixed it for a lot of people so if the issues were on my end, why did switch browser or taking it off the TV work for people? I’m not saying there aren’t things I can do differently next time to try and help mitigate these issues, we’re always learning and growing but MAN that chat was getting rude so fast attacking Nick and Mitch personally for the audio when they have no control over it. and I was panicking trying to fix it and Wiger saw that and defended his team. I appreciate him for that.
