Whats everyones thoughts on the voice acting thus far? Not trying to complain bout small things but its standing out to me quite a bit
Some are great, some sound like they hired friends and family lol
Lol, hilarious you say that, I was thinking some of the female actors sound like someone asked their soccermom to talk like a dragon (Sendrex for example)
I’m glad I’m not the only who was thinking that. Some of these voices are just… meh.
I think they’re pretty good for the most part. But the voice acting for the Dwarf girl is one of the most unpleasant sounds I’ve ever heard.
Some is great, some less so, but none are as bad as Jale Rivermane or Crowley.
From the beta I liked folks. But I also liked Sendrax and I’m very much the minority on that. I did hear her voice got changed so I’ll have a listen once things calm down and I can actually. You know. Play.
My fav bit of voice acting from dragonflight is a lightforged draenei getting wicked mad she can’t catch a fish. Sounds like Laura Bailey doing her Jester voice so it made me laugh
The Tiefling at 0:30. That’s Laura’s Jester voice for those that don’t watch CR
Toddy Whiskers sounds like voice actor Barbara Rosenblat. She is “Battleaxe” on the Venture Brothers.
Really not a fan of Majordormo. I dont like being utterly confused as to what Im listening too. The voice actor sounds like a 14 year old boy stuck in permant puberty.
I have everything but effects muted in my game
It’s fine.
Would your opinion on the character change at all depending on the gender of the character?
If they were, in fact, a 14-year-old boy in puberty I’d feel a twinge of guilt. But otherwise no.
I dont like the voice acting for the most part. I want voices to match what I see on-screen and that isnt happening. Sendrex stands out as very bad to me.
Wrathion is excellent, as always, as is Ebonhorn. Alexstrasza is good and Raszageth acceptable. Others are pretty poor, however. Naleidea is not bad, but rubs me the wrong way. Sendrax is far better than in the initial beta, but still poor. Toddy and Majordomo are less than satisfactory.
Nothing I’ve seen is so terrible as to put me off entirely now that Sendrax has been changed from the beta. There is a wide gulf in the level or performances between characters.
I like Wrathion’s voice, and Selistra has an interesting voice, and I don’t really have much of an opinion about the others yet
It’s not very good so far. Sounds very Disney/cartoony. Just a weird tone compared to the rest of the game, it sticks out.
One of the NPCs in the first outpost you get to where the renown unlocks sounded like Optimus Prime or at least someone doing a Peter Cullen impression.
So far I’ve disliked a few. The rest seem fine.
It’s actually funny you made a post about it. I thought I was just being really critical for no reason.
Now that I’m a little further, Sendrax’s voice is a terrible mistake. How could they do this to us?
