I actually hate the narrator

[Snobby Hobo]

I suffer from misophonia and suffer a strong emotional response to certain sounds. This includes gulping, smacking and other wet noises you hear in people who don't articulate properly.

The narrator speaks ridiculously softly but the volume has been turned up. In many instances this causes all the disgusting wet noises to come though as if someone is making smacking noises right in my ear.

I had this during EA but it's even worse now. Genuinely can't play with the narrator on.

I needed to activate under "win 11 the "Spatial sound"" to even hear the narrator as voice on my sound system.

So check, if you can deactivate "Spatial sound" under your sound options of windows, and get my no sound "bug/feature" to a text only narrator.

Thank you for sharing.

Assuming you've played around with the dynamic range and dialog centering options under accessibility, you might still be able to enjoy the game by turning down the voice volume completely and reading the narrated text. Unfortunately, that will affect all the other voice acting in the game.

I have a similar situation. I have a condition that makes me averse to seeing bugbear / ogre relations. *shiver*

Check out the narrator outtakes on YT to see if she bothers you there. Also, play Divinity Original Sin 2 and see how you deal with Malady. She's a really talented actor.

She's an amazing narrator and I love listening to her.

It's actually a technique used in sound recording where the narrator gets very close to the microphone. It conveys a sense of intimacy, in the general sense of the word. It's an appropriate technique given the narrator is speaking to a single person, rather than an audience. The volume likely isn't actually turned up.

JFC another imaginary disorder. Why don't you people do something with your life instead of sitting around googling disorders you can pretend to have

I don't get it, so are you saying disorders aren't real? That anyone who says they experience something is just not wanting to do something with their life?

What an interesting take. Definitely a bit dim though.

what you mean to say in a better way is that you have a personal condition that makes it hard to endure the narrator which is doing a perfectly reasonable job.

and maybe potentially the ability to turn the narrator off if it isnt available

What an insufferable comment.

i think its insufferable to use something like "i HATE the narrator" and then its just personal issues.

I'd have grately preferred a male narrator. Travis Baldree for example would have been an excellent choice or Luke Danials, even Vikas Adams would have been great. Actually Oliver Wyman may have actually been the best choice.

We can't be friends.
