As the title says Blizzard could you not hire a voice actor who actually sounds like a woman? The female voice actor was better in Diablo 3 then whoever did now. I made a female barb but seriously questioned the voice in all the dialogue it sounds maleish & I keep thinking my Barbarian is a transg. Please allow a voice pitch slider or replace the voice actor because this is bothering enough.

Theres a clear distinction between the female Barbarian’s voice & the beer belly drinking girl. You know that kinda voice im talking about drinks & smokes a lot a little raspy sounds a slight dudeish but you can tell with no question. This female barb does not have that kinda voice. It really sounds like a transgender voice actor which you should never hire for a female character to voice because it’s not the right voice.
The Woman who did D3 female barb sounded like a Russian bushy medium-heavyset type. Her voice wasn’t dainty and feminine as you put it and she was perfectly fine.
Having a more feminine voice is not an attempt to put on for me or any other person’s fetish only you with that kinda mind would think that way. I never met people with fetishes for voices but I can’t deny they may exist in this world. To me this is just asking for a more natural selection to match the character. The female Druid sounds more feminine then the Barbarian & shes a humpty dumpty rollie ollie pollie hanna loual from Hawaii.

Agreed, female barbarians should at least sound female, not male. They should look female too. It’s disgusting seeing how misogynistic Blizzard’s video game art departments have become, destroying the female form by making the women that they design butch and masculine.

… dude. the female barb is around the same size as the d3 model. they arent dainty little damsels in distress. the female versions of others are slim well besides druid. BARBARIANS are barbarians not twigs.

I didn’t say they should look dainty. I said they should look feminine, because get this, they are FEMALE, not male. Serena Williams doesn’t look dainty, but she sure looks feminine. I cannot understand why western developers are so afraid of giving female characters breasts, the people that will actually pay for and play your games vastly prefer female characters to have them, I can assure you of that.
“They should look female too” no you didnt say this at all.
The barb does look female. same size as d3 as stated. More of a Dommy mommy though. Shes a tank. So no. she doesnt need to be dainty.
As for boobs. cant argue that. Necromancer is the worst on that one. almost flat as a board. Sorc does have em though.
Eradicating boobs from the female barbarians pleases no one. Not sure what possessed Blizzard developers to do this, but whatever it is, it needs to be burned with fire.

I want more options, not fewer.
Why not both?
You don’t have to drink and smoke a lot to get raspy voice.
Example? Bonnie Tyler.

barb should be male as it was in d2. problem solved. 
But most of them would not like female to look fit like this and sound like that.
She could lift most of us with her abs alone.
