Otome CD: SE on or SE off?

[yumachan]

Otome cd releases available digitally these days let you choose whether or not to have sound effects (SE). Which do you prefer?

Personally, I usually listen with SE on. That said, I think the mood can be ruined when the sound effects are too loud or feel unnatural. Even so, I prefer having them because I enjoy the extra sense of immersion and realism they provide.

SE on!

But I agree with you, when it's unnatural it's kinda.... weird. I feel like I'm in a fish market hearing someone play with an octopus lol it's really rare tho (I never encountered one that made me change to SE off). For me, it's much better with SE on, I can understand what they're doing.

I usually play games with sound effects on, around 80-100%. Without sound or effects, playing feels a bit lonely and boring, like simply reading an e-novel.

I selectively turn off R18 content; I'm not used to hearing strange sounds, as they distract me.
