Creator lambawamba <| sep |> The whole main cast of kids were like that , all friends . <| sep |> Compromise on 17 th century ? <| sep |> It may mitigate it , and the echoes and some ambient noise may be absorbed , but you ' ve evolved some pretty attuned positional hearing that you really don ' t think about all the time . Just as in how your brain can tell when the visuals and the motion don ' t match up , it can tell when the visuals and the sound don ' t match up . You may find a point where this will work well enough to fool you , but I have a feeling you would be investing more time and money than it would be worth . Also , in larger rooms better for Viving , the time it takes for sound to move through the room is not insignificant , and in the number of milliseconds it will take for the sound to get from the speaker to your ear , the action ingame might have already moved on , leading to a noticeable audio lag . Of course , as in all things , YMMV , and honestly , if you manage to come up with some sort of setup that works , I ' m sure the Vive community would love to see it . Best of luck !
