Buona la Prima - Episode 55
Pietro Faccio and Sergio Rocco of Buona la Prima take us into their wonderful world dedicated to the video game industry.
The podcast Buona la Prima is a partner of Biunivoca.
In this episode, Pietro and Sergio talk with Davide Pensato, founder of dpstudios, to understand what makes audio in video games so different from any other medium. Sound isn't simply an accompaniment, but reacts directly to the player, adapting to their actions and helping make every experience unique.
We explore how audio supports gameplay, becoming a key element in orienting the player and enhancing what happens during the game, as well as contributing decisively to building immersion, to the point of becoming an active and concrete component of the experience.
The conversation also touches on the role of audio within development teams, how this discipline has evolved over time and the possible future directions of a sector that is increasingly central to the world of video games.
