Audio is TOO DAMN LOW.
I had high hopes in this game and watched a lot of trailers and in those trailer the audio is BONKERS. But when I played it I noticed the audio is so low.

I tried tweaking what audio setting is best. I use surround sound 7.1 headset and still no improvement.

It ruined immersion. I was expecting to have an experience like God of War but was left underwhelmed. Audio lacked the intensity and felt lackluster.

compare this to Left4Dead 1 and you can see how different sound design is these days compared to the past. Games have gotten a lot quieter and more washed out over time.

the only thing that could be heard clearly are dialogues.

I can't even tell if this is a troll lol. The sound design here is pretty on point. I have an audio engineering rig though, but, man everything is sounding great. I actually turned the master down to 70 so I could hear my friends in Guilded.

It's not that loud on my end at Max settings, it barely even engages the sub-woofers.

Sounds like I need me an upgraded setup that can amplify games that don't have the audio headroom. I have to turn the actual speakers up to get it louder which means I have to turn down everything else for one game. Maybe I should have it higher by default anyway give some other games more volume.

I had to double my speaker volume to get it to a reasonable level so maybe I'll have to play other games at 50% volume now.

I have to quote Leandros on this one, I apologize. You Lie.

I as well turned my volume on 50 but the other audio was now too loud. It's unbalanced.
