Skyrim Special Edition Audio Downgrade Comparison - Level Up by LasurArkinshade published on 2016-10-28T11:52:08Z A comparison between the level up sound in vanilla Skyrim and the extremely heavily-compressed level up sound in the Skyrim Special Edition. This is a demonstration of the quality degradation that has taken place across the game's audio. The vanilla sound is played at the beginning, the Special Edition sound is played at the end. Comment by Amarand Oh, that's terrible. I can clearly hear the compression artifacts all over the place in the second. 2016-11-29T16:32:19Z Comment by Siriö Astaröt This is a fucking lie! 2016-11-03T05:34:39Z Comment by Ilias Velaoras All I can tell from this is that the sword sound in the second clip is just different, not even the same sound at all 2016-11-02T21:39:12Z Comment by sparkywolf123 Oh my god I havnt played skyrim in years and the moment the vanilla sound went up my heart started beating noticably faster and i litterally rocked back hard, then the se sound went up i was able to calm myself from the excitement of the original. 2016-11-01T14:57:20Z Comment by Оля Кузнецова Whoever responsible for that decision is pretty dumb. 2016-10-30T08:27:09Z Comment by André Niemand Someone done fked up. 2016-10-29T18:35:02Z Comment by Niklas Sillander I could hear the difference with Stereo sound on my headphones, BUT not with 5.1 speaker system 2016-10-29T12:30:59Z Comment by N G A T E A I can hear some clipping here to 2016-10-29T08:46:51Z Comment by Sports-In-Space oh goddd! 2016-10-28T23:21:29Z Comment by Viktor Zryd What's up with that ducking 2016-10-28T19:15:34Z Comment by Platonic Scale Somewhere, a sound guy is about to lose his job 2016-10-28T17:24:52Z Comment by jaKz9 HOLY SHIT what a difference!
