I've always heard about the debate on gore in games and movies, but this is an angle I haven't heard talked about. On this thread, https://www.resetera.com/threads/games-with-the-most-satisfying-punches-or-hits.46024/. I saw people discuss how particular sound effects in games made punches and attacks feel weighty and enjoyable through their sound effects and visuals. What are your thoughts on whether it's ok for people to get enjoyment from the visuals and sounds of simulated violence? These aren't necessarily gory games, just ones where you fight or punch any enemies. Am I overthinking this or not?
Edit: Some interesting answers, but most don't seem to be addressing the type of enjoyment that I wanted to be addressed, specifically the types mentioned in the link that I included. I'd appreciate if any future commenters take that into account.
