I know this isn’t as serious as some others on here but I still want to complain about a first world problem I have currently.
So I like trying to get the best experience possible out of stuff that I like. Things like watching movies in 4K etc.
But the problem comes in with Dolby and dts.
So for those who don’t know Dolby and dts are 3D audio softwares that turn stereo headphones into more suround sounding audio.
The problem I have with things like this is they both have complete opposite pros and cons making it impossible to pick which I prefer.
Like the pros of one is crap in the other. For example dts has a high bitrate making the audio really realistic and crisp. However it’s actual 3D audio sounds even smaller than normal stereo with you really having to concentrate to even tell which direction a sound is coming from. God forbid if something is behind you because there just isn’t a way to know
Dolby has a really good 3D audio making it very clear where something is, which direction rather behind me and above me is clear. But it’s trying to hard to be a “cinema” like experience that it heavily muffles everything with its overly sensitive bass making it heavily processed and just sounding crap and muffled.
Why can’t there just be a good surround sound software that can do both great 3D audio and clear audio. Is it really that difficult to do? I know this isn’t serious And it’s definitely a first world problem but so many companies are like this. Nintendo is especially bad with so many of their recent games being both the worst and the best in the entire series. Breath of the wild has an amazing open world but those dungeons are terrible. I don’t understand why so many things are like this? It makes it impossible to pick anything
