Thanks for the feedback everyone. When we initially recorded, it didn't really cross my mind that we needed a scream part so when I asked, one of us said, "wouldn't it be weirder if she didn't?" so that kind of made sense to me. But probably like most people, I wouldn't have questioned it if it was left out. This year's E3 playable had high drop rates so that the press could experience the shard system without grinding. Miriam only screams the first time the player obtains a new shard. Well, you might be hearing it roughly 100 more times or something heh. Maybe I could suggest a scream toggle, but we can't promise. Great to know that! Thanks Mana

I like the scream in general - what I don't like is that it's always the same scream. It makes it feel more like it's a soundfile being played than a character screaming. I know, that is actually the case but it should never feel like it. So, if you get the chance to do another recording session or have some leftover screams that you could use - I'd like to have some more different screams there. I wouldn't turn it off otherwise either as I also think that it would be a little strange to have no voice to such an event, especially with that animation.

A few alternative screams would be great, and I think people do not need the toggle (if it even ends up in the game).

Speaking about the demo, any chance backers could get our hands on it at some point? Well, we get an alpha in August so...I think we are pretty set.

I agree with this. I think the scream every time is fine, so long as they are random screams. Only when getting a shard for the first time though. It could be taken a bit further by changing the pitch and what not randomly as well. SaveYeah, I'm with y'all.
And ReySol , pretty sure we already did have a breast size poll lol.
Count me in too. It's not even remotely unfeasible, just look at Shantae: Half-Genie Hero, there's different random voice clips for when Shantae transforms. Most of the time it's a standard shout, but sometimes it sounds bored or quick.

In practice, the sound effect shouldn't happen all that often.
Theoretically you'd only hear it once per unique enemy in the entire game, say if there's 300 enemies, then you'll hear it 300 times throughout the enitrety of your playthrough (give or take a few for any ability shards given without an enemy.) And that's only IF you decide to get every shard in the game, which is bound to give you a pretty damn long run time. So all in all, you likely aren't going to hear it a whole lot and especially not super frequently. Maybe a couple times towards the start of the game with easier to get shards but beyond that, not very often at all, even if you're specifically grinding for them.
So I don't mind the scream every time, even if it's the same scream. While I'd enjoy having variations on the scream, it's not something I'd push heavily for if it'd take much time, money, or resources to do at this stage. It's just not that big of a deal, at least in my opinion.
And having a toggle option seems awkward to me. While it makes sense to us in this thread, imagine out of context popping in a new game, going into the options menu, and finding an option to toggle on and off a specific voice effect. It'd make it seem like something was inherently wrong with that voice effect, especially since it's not one that would be heard all that frequently especially compared to her attack sounds or other things like that.
A simple Master/Music/SFX/Voice slider set would do the trick fine, I feel.
