Title: Is a howl/roar almost as contagious as a yawn?
Post by: FlyingGrass on October 22, 2017, 07:56:07 pm

Do you get the urge to howl/roar whenever you hear a howl/roar?
I just had the thought that howling/roaring may be like FH's yawn, hence all the spurts of distant howling/roaring that pops up every now and then.

I'm wondering this as I feel like using the howl/roar action every time it's used nearby.

It is contagious.  Partly an urge to communicate over distance i suppose. And partly the "Me too" or "I'll answer you" instinct.

usually when i'm tabbing and i hear a roar/howl in the game it makes me want to immediately click back into the game, i'm not entirely sure why i do this though. but no, i personally don't get any urges to roar/howl back.

I don't. I mute every sound of FH. But I do spend hours spamming the howl button on
purpose.

Interesting topic.~ I have to say that I hadn't thought about this before, but I do tend to notice that when once person howls/roars, the area is soon filled with many of that sound. I don't often join in, myself, but perhaps I should, if it's a secret feral communication. c:<

Not gonna lie, I nearly forgotten what the sound sounds like sometimes..
Most occasions it's actually not that bad and it even makes me sleepy...
Other times I just don't mind it.. But as for the urge to join in.. only whenever me and my friends aren't around anyone and are just goofing off.
Lol.

I too click into the game immediately after/during a howl/roar. Listening for howls/roars might be a great way of recruiting whilst tabbing out, despite all the false alarms there'll be.
