If the Sea Emperor had a female voice versus a male voice.
A male voice with that thing would be weird, it would make the Sea Emperor seem more hostile, and it just doesn't make sense. As the Sea Emperor will be passive, it should have a female voice because that would make it seem more gentle, passive, and it would make her seem more important, instead of just another creature.

Edit: On the trello it even says that the sea emperor will have a voice and that it will talk to you through telepathy or something.

Idk what do you guys and gals think?

Yeah, the Sea Emperor should totally be voiced by Martha Stewart.

Joke aside, I don't get

1. why you associate a female voice with gentleness and passiveness (which I also find quite disconcerting ) and
2. how an animal is supposed to have a perceivable, gender-specific voice in the first place.

Also, how would that make her "more important"? Her significance is being determined by the narrative, not by the fact that she's... well... a she (and a mommy).

I expect her voice to be much more vibrant and deeper than those of smaller - even though still massive - creatures, simply because of the mass of her body.

So, in short: I think your suggestion is non-sense.

A male or female whale making underwater sounds are pretty much the same to my ears.
But since that Emperor has eggs, I'd wager a deep sounding female voice would be more suitable than a male voice.
After all, eggs (offspring) go hand in hand with the female side.

If there were no eggs involved I'd pick a male voice, but since there already seem to be eggs involved I'd go with female instead, but it has to sound appropriate for a massive creature like that, deep slow grumbling.

How exactly?

Either voice would be alright, but I could still argue that a female could sound hostile just like Kerrigan from Starcraft 2 or the Succubus from DmC Devil May Cry.
Hard to think of a suitable voice for a underwater beast that would sound gentle and passive without making it sound something like sultry goddess from a fantasy game or maybe Crossbreed Priscilla from Dark Souls 1.
I really think that the look of the Emperor should match its voice, like Paarthurnax from Skyrim, a wise elder dragon or The Darkness, a horrific god from hell from, well, The Darkness 1 and 2.
And besides, the name of the creature will have to be changed to Sea Empress and many of you are forgetting that male Seahorses can lay eggs.
Who knows, we could be surprised.

1. why you associate a female voice with gentleness and passiveness (which I also find quite disconcerting )

Cause female voice should be associated with gentlness and passiveness. Why? Evolution. Women are weaker than man so they are simply less harmful *AND* the voice you hear when you're just a little ball of nothingness is female's voice - your mother, it won't hurt you, it's very often a voice full of love and you hear it way more often than father's voice. We're obviously not discussing the "abandon your child" scheme here cause it, well, doesn't fit.

tl;dr Human brain simply views female's voice as more "beautiful" than male's.

I'm off topicing here, but I just love Kerrigan's voice and if I heard it every single day in my house I would be the happiest person alive.

Man...That succubus from dmc. The fact that after 3 you find out that sparta came back to earth at the end, and then 4 doesnt have anything to do with that and DMC was a reboot makes me real sad.

But if the Sea Emperor has Morgan Freemans voices, you'd sure as feel safe in front of this wise beast.
And I do agree Kerrigan has a good voice, but it definetly doesn't reflect a gentle and passive creature OP wants

I think if it is speaking to you telepathically you should hear your voice since it's in your head. That's just my unusual ideology for you. :)

Yeah, well, I'm not saying men can't have calming voices, I'm only saying that generally female' voices are more gentle than male'.

"Fauna on Planet 4546B only have one gender that is capable of both laying eggs and fertilising them "
--> no sexual dimorphism

The whole thread is pointless.

I think male, since it's "emperor" and not "empress"

Because while this is technically on the topic of Subnautica, the question proposed makes no sense.

Handwaving the aquarium breeding mechanic and likely also art team doesn't have time to make two of every animal. Notch made the same decision with minecraft because it would have added extra work for him and the player trying to breed animals while adding no fun to the game.
