Sex scenes and music?

[Kodra_Dev]

As title. Do you prefer the sex scenes with music or without?

And if yes, which games have the best music choices for sex scenes, in your opinion?

 

[Scruffles DEV]

Having the right music can absolutely set the mood when considering emotions, mood of the scene, the context of the scene, etc, and can especially heighten the experience.

 

[Meaning Less]

Are you creating or paying for original music that is part of the game and defines it? If so then by all means yes.

Are you just using royalty free music or songs that are extremely overused? Than no thanks, this can have the opposite effect of what you might be expecting.

Sometimes less is more.

Been struggling with this myself. I think less is more in a lot of cases, but some subtle BGM isn't bad either as long as it's not terrible.

Good music choice = sex scene is much better than it is without music
Poor music choice = sex scene is much worse than it is without music
But in general, all scenes in a game should have some kind of audio, whether it's music or ambient sounds.

 

[NeonSelf]

Most of the time the first thing I do is turn off the music, because it doesnt fit with general tempo of the game or grabs too much attention so its bad as background.

But it is great to have some background ambient sounds like wind, birds, rain, cars...

It really depends on the mood and scene, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, as everything. For example, when I go to youtube I want to see some music and not tits.
