alt Hacker NewsI think now it seems clear you're talking about "sound effect design" specifically maybe, rather than sound design? Particularly because you say it's not good for music production, but plenty of us do sound design together with music product, but I've also never done sound effect design, which it does sound like you're talking about.
I’ve never heard of anyone making distinction between “sound design” and “sound effect design” in gamedev. I don’t know anything about cinema or other creative industries though, but my original post is only about video games.
