Donovan Posted January 10, 2019 Report Share Posted January 10, 2019 (edited) I do not know if it is just me but I feel like seeing a female character and then hearing a voice changer on voip just makes me want to vomit , I understand that people want to immerse themselfs as females when they are males , I understand that there are folks who got " Gender Dysphoria " but honestly it just ruins the game and the immersion on so many levels ... Atleast in my oppinion if you are a guy and you really want to make a female character and play it , just don't use voice changers it just makes it awkward and also most of the time you cannot even understand what the person is saying because of the echo and the transformation of the voice because of the voice changer... Maybe it's just me , maybe not that's why I decided to make this topic , because honestly I do not have anything against people with Gender Dysphoria or Trans people irl , but it just creeps me out to see someone who is that desperate to be a " female " ingame that he uses a voice changer to do so ... Personal oppinion is that Voice Changers should be forbidden. Edited January 10, 2019 by Gangula Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander783 Posted January 10, 2019 Report Share Posted January 10, 2019 Not using a voice changer anymore, for good reason, haha. Hm... forbidden... would be a bit too restrictive, just tell the person perhaps, to adjust it kindly? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I prefer using chat most of the time. It also forces me to use more /me's and /do's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeistuoliZ Posted January 10, 2019 Report Share Posted January 10, 2019 It really bothers me when i see female and it is actually male just using female character, i just want to kill her Sometimes you flirt with a girl using chat and later you realise that is just male using female Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This kind of attitude is why people resort to voice changers. If someone is roleplaying a female character, and you decide to flirt with her, you're flirting with the character, not the person behind the screen, so it shouldn't matter if it's a guy or a girl. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically VOIP is IC only , so if you were to hear a mans voice you would know its a transgender or smth like that and back off same way you'd do in real life if you were to meet a girl and she responds with a manly voice or lifts her skirt and a dick pops up , I mean unless you are into that ...

VOIP is In-Character, however people have no control over how their voice sounds, and it would most definitively be failRP for you to take that in-character. Unless the person is actually roleplaying transgender, him having a male voice should not be taken in-character. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Female speaking in a mans voice on a character that is not a transgender is equally weird but, ya know what, this is RP. RP a little. In the same way that we don't meta someone being the same as their other character because they have the exact same voice, you cannot meta a female not being a female IC because of VOIP unless it is found out otherwise. If people want to use voice changers to make just a bit more realistic, hats off to them. Limiting a man to play a man and a woman to play a woman is not only restriction of an RP that does not harm the server, but it also brings up current socio-political issues. As seen above. In conclusion, you're a big boy, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally i don't want to be rping with a female character knowing it's a man that's just fucking hella wierd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps that's why they don't disclose it OOCly, because of people like you that would then refuse to RP with them? If you're worried about later ERPing with one and it actually being a man, I would advise abiding by the golden rule of the internet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusketDeezNuts Posted January 16, 2019 Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 Voice changers are fine as long as its realistic. If the voice is not good enough. Dont use it.
