discussion Lewd sounds in games? Yea or nay?

[Sertinus]

Most definitley depends on how they are implemented

 

[arar]

ya just not too loud

 

[goals]

Asian games often have the female voices voice acted and some moans during scenes, which is pretty hot. Usually when a random RenPy dev tries to add their sound effects, it doesn't work out.

 

[katori]

Doesn't make a difference because I usually listen to some music while playing...

 

[User_174546]

I feel like even the smallest bits of sound (bgm, some slight squish/plap sounds) add so much to a scene to help you lose yourself in it
And for more professional project, good voice acting? A treasure

 

[WellMadePlanet]

It really depends on the sound design. If it fits then it makes the scene way hotter.

 

[crab22]

if done properly it greatly enhances the experience

 

[sleep222]

I can live without them but it does feel like something is missing when there arn't any

 

[xanxus07]

The moaning and macaroni sounds, yea, but the overly done pornstar "yes", then that's a nay

 

[misterchef]

yes but not too much

 

[RogueOwl]

Heck nah! I mean, im sure that sound can greatly enhance many mediums, games, movies, etc. But i have too much around me that i have to pay attention to. The only time i get a chance to use my ear buds is when im in bed at night watching tv or messing on my phone. Speaking of my ear buds, i lost my good set awhile back and i tore the house apart looking for them, with zero luck. ugh. gonna have to get me another pair soon. as they are mandatory at night so I don't interrupt my girlfiend.

 

[greey12]

depends but most of times I play with music on and sound effects off

 

[badplottwist]

Voice acting is VNs is usually not great, and the recording equipment isn't great either.

 

[User_174965]

porn sounds can be okay if done right. That is lightly with not the same audio over and over. So mostly games with audio end up using the same sounds for every love interest in the game and yeah, it gets annoying real quick.
I really don't want to hear the same over the top moaning in every situation, with every love interest.
One of the reasons I tend to stay away from HTML games.

Pornstar style audio moans being used over and over are the worst.

 

[Jaysus]

def would say i prefer no sounds because i have never seen it implemented the right way unfortunately.. most of the times the sounds are either way to repetetive OR they make me jump out of my seat because they are way too loud and sudden

 

[gabi43]

not a fan of it, unless it's done very well in rich story game

 

[HuiEtyud]

Not a deal-breaker one way or the other, for me. If it has it, cool; if it doesn't, cool.

 

[Kitten]

nay

 

[Carnagie]

Generally no, it tends to sound much hotter in my head than whatever the dev puts down
