About the not being able to change voice thing...
It bothers me so. I don't wanna delete and/or grind another character again. I think it'd be rly cool if you could set the voice to "random", so you get a new voice set each game you play.

Yeah same. Being able to change the voice and hear more of the dialogue when you need a break or if your preferences change would be nice.

Idk about random either, but it definitely should be in the appearance shop.

can introduce a little voiceline about the new 'voice modulation feature'.... and hear some horrid gurgling in the background that clearly indicates you're basically gonna get your vocal cords ripped out and some poor schlop's gonna end up servitor-ized and said person's vocalcords given to your character.

Hey it's 40k XD

Hard agree, its not like our character is actually a 'charcter' and changing voice will break anything. Theres no interactions at all in the hub or in cutscenes aside of prologue

Characters actually have hundreds of individual conversation flags denoting what they know, what they've spoken about, and who they've spoken to about it, ie Loner Psyker talking about the Cicatrix Maledictum, or about Morrow's supposed age, or the mineral density of Atoman Leman Russ battle tanks with or without a Bully Ogryn or a Cutthroat Veteran, or whoever, present to continue the conversation and add yet more flags. And the flags are all over the place, you can't just transplant them between voices, unfortunately.

It would be cool to swap personalities and see some other voice lines after hundreds of hours of play, but since FS never considered it, it can't really be a thing going forward either.

A lot of assumptions there. I believe FS acknowledged it a bit ago, along with other customization requests like name and height change. They said they intend to implement it at some point, but because of everything else on their plate it's not in their top priority list just yet.

This stuff can be complicated, but I don't think this is on the level of say, an RPG or something where it's not feasible. Outside of the hostile vs. friendly voice line checks, and a few of the unique background comments (which mostly applies to Cadia than anything else), I don't think there's much holding back from a voice change.

You should be able to change everything (apart from class) in the appearance shop. Original planet, name, gender, voice, height. . . it's a game, let the players do whatever they want.
