If Lemmy ever gets enshittified, I'm coming back to this comment and giving it an award
If youβre designing games for the male gaze, the gender select screen is basically βare you here for the ooh-ra, or the a-woo-ga?β
What if youβre designing for the male gays?
Are you here to slay or are you here to slay
Creating my XIV Roegadyn female character
"Why not both?"
Dead By Daylight 100% xD
Listening to pro tennis makes me think that they are actually accurate
Nah, it's pretty much the right side for both.
Can't remember what I was playing but I started getting attacked when I thought I was in a safe spot and got up to grab something from the fridge; the getting hurt sounds my dude was making sounded like he was taking cock like a champ.
Nah, itβs pretty much the right side for both.
What a brave new world of gender equality we now live in π
Dark Souls 1 male voice is like "OOooaahh" when taking damage, pretty funny
Dark souls 1 maybe? The male character just enjoys pain im sure about that!
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
Props to them. That sounds like a woman dying in a very unsexy way.
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'
This man doesn't know what a real fighter looks like.
Natalya, 007 goldeneye comes to mind
Let's not pretend we don't know the reason.
is that a challenge?
here we go: it's because all the female characters are canonically masochists, because something something trans women are like half of all competent computer programmers, and every single trans woman in tech is a masochist, and they like to see themselves represented on screen. how often do we confirm that a video game character is cis? almost never, right? so it's actually just trans inclusivity.
Anyone who's played Dead By Daylight can attest that all the characters hurt sounds like the right side
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?
I was scared to click that link but now I can't breathe π
Man, reading a Robert Evans Cracked article from 2016 takes me back.
I loved Cracked so much before they fired everyone who people liked 7 years ago.
That's impressive because for some people it's a traumatic experience being stuck in quicksand and nearly dying, and for others it's an arousing experience. Very interesting how differently people perceive it.
well itβs just because in the old tv shows there was a lot ofβ¦ odd sounds from women caught in quicksand
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.
