In FromSoft games it's the complete opposite.

If Lemmy ever gets enshittified, I'm coming back to this comment and giving it an award

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Someone was handing out jpegs with trophies for a certain number of upvotes in the German version of me_irl here for a while. Maybe try that?

[–] [email protected] 23 points 2 weeks ago

I keep this one around until then

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago

You can donate to nonprofits such as trans support funds and send the proof of donation. Rewards, but not enshittified

If you’re designing games for the male gaze, the gender select screen is basically β€œare 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?

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.

What a brave new world of gender equality we now live in πŸ™

Listening to pro tennis makes me think that they are actually accurate

[–] [email protected] 70 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Let's not pretend we don't know the reason.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Well I'm a straight cis male programmer who could describe myself as a rigger/master type. And I definitely play the female characters because those hard hits are fucking lovely to hear.

[–] [email protected] 69 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

As a masochistic woman, I feel attacked. πŸ˜…

Which is... a good thing for you?

Ah, I presume 'pzzzt' refers to the sound of electricity between the clamps?

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.

[–] [email protected] 43 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

you should hear yourself while climaxing and then see if you can make any distinction

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 weeks ago

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

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

oh I just scream for a while tbh

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 weeks ago

It made the other parishners feel really awkward

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I don't even have to be orgasming. I just scream sometimes. Some people say I'm quirky.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 weeks ago

based and AAAAAAAA pilled

I recorded myself and ran it through Shazam and it returned this?

Anyone who's played Dead By Daylight can attest that all the characters hurt sounds like the right side

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

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 weeks ago

Props to them. That sounds like a woman dying in a very unsexy way.

Apparently it’s from an adult game called Another Chance, made by Time Wizard Studios. They also created this meme (source is here)

Dead By Daylight 100% xD

Are we criticizing women voice actors here or are we assuming voice actors are given direction to do this?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I would imagine they are given directions to do it, or if not, it might just be that some people perceive the hurt sounds to sound like the right side to them.

[–] arendjr 10 points 2 weeks ago

I think it’s the latter. I once had to take care of a sick friend who was pretty much puking her guts out. Her moans sounded arousing. Of course she wasn’t intentionally doing that, it’s just our own male brains playing tricks on us.
