In FromSoft games it's the complete opposite.
Thank you, I was thinking "dark souls male character sounds"
If you’re designing games for the male gaze, the gender select screen is basically “are you here for the ooh-ra, or the a-woo-ga?”
Creating my XIV Roegadyn female character
"Why not both?"
What if you’re designing for the male gays?
Are you here to slay or are you here to slay
I need an ass slider
As a masochistic woman, I feel attacked. 😅
Which is... a good thing for you?
This raises the good question of whether masochists need consent in some situations
Edit: from the severe negative feedback, I presume then that user pzzzt has legitimate cause to feel attacked, and that user Kevo is false in their presumption that this is a good thing for them. Or we might all be overreacting to some risqué banter. Real thinker.
me too 😅
I can only imagine what it's like being part of the recording team when it comes to getting the hurt sounds. Probably something like this.
Anyone who's played Dead By Daylight can attest that all the characters hurt sounds like the right side
Bill Overbeck....
you should hear yourself while climaxing and then see if you can make any distinction
When my partner cums it sounds kind of like, how I imagine, someone getting stabbed would sound and I should be used to it by now, but it off catches me off guard
I recorded myself and ran it through Shazam and it returned this?
When I see these memes, I always rememmber Unreal Tournament 99, where female death sounds are decidedly unsexy, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fEv6IB2TRAQ%3Ft%3D444 starting at 7:24
Maybe because of that "throat vibration" effect? I wonder if they got it right on the first try, or had a first draft and had to scrap it and come up with sounds that couldn't be mistaken for anything else
A women being hurt 9 times of 10 is screaming. Imagine how annoying that'd be in a game.
The "women are always screaming" stereotype is sexist. It's a direct extension of the pseudoscientific hysteria diagnosis that used to be commonly accepted. "A women," as you put it, might scream, and you might find that annoying. Women as a category have higher pitched voices on average, and the line between "reasonable yelling" and "hysterical screaming" is often just one of pitch, even when the cause for alarm or injury is the same.
Additionally, neither I nor any of the women in my life "scream" in response to injury. We yell in pain just like someone with a masculine voice, if a bit higher pitched. Some may, but it's not common and is usually reserved for situations of extreme alarm or fear, or occasionally excitement. Any time a woman does scream on video, you always see someone in the comments complaining about how annoying women screaming is. The same is never said about men screaming, unless they scream "like a girl."
9/10 times. How out of touch are you?
they're a lemmy.ml user, so the answer is usually 'very'
