I've honestly never had a random team work together this well when I was in voice chat as a man. Still, they seem to get motivated solely by your existence, so I didn't mind them turning team chat into goddamn Pentagon with all the strategizing they start doing. I don't think they have any malicious intent for the most part, they're obviously just trying to impress you, but I've never met a woman who'd be impressed by their antics. The type that becomes comedians and commanders when they hear a female voice. I consider myself one of these.ģ0% try too hard. They have nothing to say to you any more than they'd have to a male player. They don't think it's cool that you're a girl, or they support girl gamers, or they think you belong in the kitchen, they genuinely have no strong feelings about you. I tried to replicate a female player minding her business to the best of my capacity.Ħ0% doesn't care. I was mostly playing Ana/Mercy to fit the stereotype. In my games (2600 open comp because why not) I kept the comms to a minimal, just enough to show that I'm totally a gamer girl, but not overdoing it or sounding like I was there for anything more than playing the game, which was the point. From my perspective I've rarely ever seen that happen, so I decided to increase my sample size.
I've always read here that female players often have a difficult time playing because of the harassment.
At best, it really did sound like a female speaking, just from a cheap mic, which worked for experimental purposes. Turns out that men speak deeper from their throat while women are further up, and it was definitely uncomfortable trying to replicate that part. Even with allegedly the best one out there though it was far from perfect, and I actually learned of oral speech pattern differences between men and women. I was committed enough to my experiment to actually buy a key for one.
