I always turn of the commentary, but you know what? This was still an excellent insight. Imagine that, being able to appreciate the qualitative aspects of a part of the game that isn't necessarily something you really care about.

I can't stand Marv Albert and so I used to turn off sometimes or at least lower the volume of the commentary while playing Live. But I can't take it without commentary (just like I can't take Marv's voice). Doesn't it feel empty to play with no commentary? It's like playing the demo with 12-min quarters...

Enjoyed this insight, really looking forward to the next insight regarding the feature we probably won't get to use this year

Nope, doesn't feel empty at all. My own analysis of what is going on in the game provides me with complete immersion. Quite often I mute real life games as well.

Maybe you can upload a gameplay video to youtube with your own commentary. I'd like to hear that, would be interesting to hear someone else doing the commentary. I'm serious.

When I say analysis, I don't mean play by play and the like, just internal observations of the rhythm of the game.
