My cousin said she plays Stardew with the sound off, and that idea bothered me more than it should have

We were sitting on her porch in Boise last weekend and she mentioned she always mutes the game and puts on a podcast instead. I asked why and she said the fishing sound stresses her out, which honestly makes sense when you think about it. I tried it that night with a lo-fi playlist and got through a whole rainy day without feeling rushed at all. Now I'm wondering if I've been missing out on my own chill by keeping the game audio on this whole time. Does anyone else play with the sound off, or am I about to ruin the vibe for myself?
