Subtitles in video games: yes or no? Do players use them?
gearsrealm.com
Throughout my gaming journey, I've encountered numerous instances where subtitles, an essential feature for understanding game narratives, have been poorly

For instance, Assassin’s Creed Origins had subtitles turned off by default and 60% of players turned them on. And in games that had subtitles turned on by default, only 10% turned them off.

    Few reasons why I turn on subtitles:

    • sometimes the dialogue is kind of boring and I just want to read and hit “next line”

    • sometimes it gives clues I wouldn’t hear like “hunter growling” or “witch sobbing” in left 4 dead.
