I've changed my mind about this. After turning off the subtitles the narrator is much less annoying. Easy fix. :)

The thing is it all comes down to choices. Are you an Advanced User or are you new to PC gaming?

OP is an Advanced User, with a great point.

Thanks for the replies.

To those of you who are pretending you think the narrator is speaking in a natural speaking tone, stop lying. She has a distinctly seductive succubus-like tone, which is great when applied to that kind of character and used sparingly, but ridiculous when used as a narrator.
to be honest, the narration is bland and doesn't stand out, it is neither great nor terrible, it's simply adequate.

To those of you who think I'm being sexist... Nope. I'd be perfectly happy with this exact same voice actor being the narrator if she was willing to do the job professionally instead of acting like she's getting turned on by everything she says.
Okay, you say you ain't being a sexist prick. I'm gonna take you on your word on that until you say something extremely sexist again and prove yourself a liar.

It could be argued that having a woman narrate the entire game as if explaining the events of a D&D story to nerds makes her nipples hard is insulting to women.
That didn't take long, liar and sexist prick it is. Great job not disguising it as standing up for women.

And yes, I could have just said "I don't like the narrator. Can we mute it?", but Larian are taking feedback, and this is mine. I hope you can find a way to cope with the fact that you don't personally agree. :)
Super duper, you got my feedback on your feedback. Hope you can find a way to cope with the fact that I think your way of giving feedback suck.

Bro it's just a woman speaking normally... are you ok?

yeah, this is kind of odd.
i mean, you have a woman whispering into your ear and it offends you?

that will change for him one day, i assure you. somewhere around 14-16.

I'll just read it with the exact same raunchy tone I read all the other text with because my job here is to spend hours reading text with a raunchy tone.
Projecting much? She does have a pleasing voice but sexual intent shouldn't be inferred. Just like when a woman smiles or behaves politely it shouldn't be taken as sexual interest.

Edit: No fap isn't until November bro.

the narrator draws me in. too much text reading would make me lose interest

I too hope we are able to mute the narrator, but it has nothing to do with her gender or the quality of her acting, but rather, the way she whispers and lingers on the S sounds. I have some autistic symptoms when it comes to whispers and exaggerated S sounds, and her voice instantly gives me horrible anxiety and makes me want to rip my headphones off. I pre-ordered the game before I realized how prevalent her voice is, and if there is no option to mute her voice, the game will be unplayable to me. I do wish though that they had brought on Aabria Iyengar to be the narrator, I loved her as a DM in EXU. Or even Matt Mercer, who is already in the game as Minsc anyway. Though, even with Amelia Tyler, the current narrator, I would be fine if she didn't use that seductive whisper so much. If there is no option to mute her, I may need to see about getting a refund since her current voice makes the game unplayable for someone with my affliction.

That's a very strange issue to have - the thing you find intolerable is probably the thing I love the most.

But we're all different, so what pleases one person causes disgust in another! Sorry to hear that you don't love Amelia's voice as much as some of us do. I could literally do nothing but listen to her audio for hours (in fact, I have, there are recordings of her in game lines on Youtube).
