In pain voicelines (freezing, burning, poisoned)

General Discussion
1

all characters have them! when they’re getting freezed, burned, poisoned and so on! but almost no character actually sounds like they’re in massive pain, most of them sound like they’re ENJOYING it (if you catch my drift)
Lucios burning voiceline in Overwatch 1 was the only in-pain-voice that didn’t sound like he was gettin sturdy in the bedroom but ofc they had to change it to match the rest.
junkrat im trying to poison you as ana not give you the best gasm’ of a lifetime!!!

there are two views i really have on this, i like the in-pain-voices because of a sertain reason many others do but the other side of wanting realism and not hearing the characters whimper takes over the other

If this is how you see “bedroom sounds”, I don´t wanna know, what you do in there…

5

are you trying to kink-shame them?

6

no no im all for kinks aslong as they aint illegal just find it inappropriate for them to openly enjoy it mid battle lol

I would say Mercy sounds like she is enjoying it, but Genji is more like very dramatic xD

do not worry as consent has to go both ways before anything at all, especially something drastic like what you’re implying!

11

I’m sure most people would rather not listen to the VAs screaming violently lol

12

I’m implying that you might mistake sounds of extreme discomfort for pleasure.

Cause I’m not getting what you’re getting from those sounds.

13

You should listen to Lucio being on Fire.

14

i miss lucio being on fire in OW1 that went hard

15

It isn’t in-game anymore?

16

nope they changed it to match the others aka just saying ‘ow ouch ow ouuhhh hhh ow’ like all the other ones lol

17

They really couldn’t do anything right with this ‘Sequel’, could they?

the extreme discomfort in this scenario doesnt sound much like it, could def have changes to sound like actual discomfort and not pleasure lol

19

I know of several game designers that tested actual pain sounds in their games… and people really disliked realistic suffering. People want a cartoony ow or a “HOT!” not actual burning people screaming.

Oh please, even the voice actors laugh about how it sounds

Such a prude, you
