- “The soundtrack may become repetitive over time, but the overall soundscape remains effective throughout the experience.”
- “I honestly was a little creeped out by the music, and you can't turn off the vocals and just have the instrumentals, so I just decided to turn the music completely off and leave the ambient sounds on, but the visuals more than make up for it!”
