Subtitles in video games: yes or no? Do players use them?

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.

    As if my ADHD ass could choose to only pay attention to the subtitles anyway?

    It’s like reading a road sign while driving on the freeway. I can read the sign out of my peripheral vision, without focusing on it or taking my eyes off the road. I assumed everyone did this?

      I don’t think you can read signs in your peripheral vision without focusing on them.

      Looking at road signs is done very quickly yes but you definitely are shifting your focus for a sec.
