[bazzastan]

destiny 2

 

[Subzero85]

don't really like them things around my head and ears, but use them on occasion for shooter games, sounds great on stuff like COD, battlefield and Counter strike

 

[Malevolence]

I don't. Why would I use a headset when I have a decent pair of speakers hooked up to my system?

 

[bazzastan]

Hmmm because of the mic as in the title

 

[Noxia]

Some games I find more immersive with headphones, despite having decent-ish speakers. I don't really play MP though so I am only giving half a story here.

All games are better sound wise with a decent headset. Speakers are more sociable though

Please tell me that you don't think you have to use a headset in order to use a mic.

Most games to be fair! If I’m playing with my mates!

Campaign games I just use the speakers

 

[Maximum Triceratops]

All of them, I packed away my speaker setup in my loft years ago.

Use headphones for everything, only get pc time when little one is zzzz and it's next door to her.

Same. Multiplayer - get the headset on, otherwise I'm chilling using speakers.

Destiny 2 - needed if you plan for LFG for raids and dungeons.

This, I have a nice pair of speakers hooked up to my PC, but they only really get used for music while I'm working, since gaming time is almost exclusively restricted to late night when the kids are asleep.

That's depends whether everyone else in the house wants to hear your game surely?

It means I can hear the wife if she needs any help with the kids

 

[StarShock]

If I'm playing with friends I'll use a headphones and mic. Otherwise speakers, even multiplayer, if I don't know them I'm not interested in chatting

 

[Junglist]

I now use a headset for gaming but I never use the mic any more.

 

[Avathar77]

No mic. Only headset when playing at night. DT770 Pro 80 Ohm.

That's why I have open backs

Still not a great look. It basically says "don't speak to me I'm gaming"
