i believe he's saying it's preference and that if you had it off, with no volume, you would not be able to tell you were hit and would thus die as we do not necessarily keep our eyes on our health and more just keep track of the hits we take, as things like potting become muscle memory and you don't need to look at your hp to know when you need to pot. now what his point about how people will die without audio and hurtcam matters to this conversation at all i cannot really explain.
