Gee, wouldn't it be wonderful if we had AUDIO OPTIONS. VOX / SFX / MUSIC sliders. Turn up the voices. EZPZ. Why is this something Bungie won't do?

If I recall correctly, I remember Marty saying a few times in different ways something to the effect of "artist control" - presenting the audio in the way they wished to present it.

But the quality and type of the user's technology alters the end product of audio levels too wildly. I know they test on a variety of different setups to ensure the audio works consistently... but I think there's too many factors in the wild to account for.

A few simple, minimal adjustment options would be very handy for my more-than-a-decade-old Koss 5.1.

Adjustable audio would be great. I would settle them for just making the dang Tower NPCs speak up.
