eivor voice cringe

[sn]

why does the kid sound like a 5yr old anime girl ?
its ruining my immersion i had to mute the game until i finish the mission.

theres also no way some kid survives a whole wolf biting into his neck...

because they have to get an adult to voice act a young child

[craigsters]

did you not see the flock of ravens knight him as there saviour and that's why he's close to ravens

[Jordan]

yeah i agree his voice cringe af

[Crimsomrider]

I think they did a good job with it, considering that little Eivor is supposed to sound inbetween female/male before the player chooses their sex. As some boys usually have either squeaky or high pitched voices before they get their real one later.

It's also why for cartoons and anime studios will hire actresses to voice act little boys, as a woman can hit the notes that a grown male cannot. Such as Laura Bailey who is a prominent voice actress and voice acted Kid Trunks in Dragonball Z.

If we're talking about the first scene...I thought that was a technical sound quality issue. It sounded like ♥♥♥♥. Like it wasn't recorded in a professional setting. Not as much on the VA's performance.

They could of played the kid as a shy quiet kid, that would appeal to why when he's/she's older he/shes a strong leader

What...?
It's a kid. Kids sound like that. Eivor's voice is made like that to contrast with how she sounds later with her vocal cords all ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up. From a small child with a high pitched voice to an adult with a raspy one. You're clearly watching too much anime to think of some cringe ♥♥♥♥ by just hearing a child.

What are you even trying to prove by saying this lol different people different voices and Eivor is a girl not a boy. It’s a literal child.

actually no because the game makes u choose a gender, part of the game literally says "the dna is spliced, choose one" so you are wrong.

and my point is its annoying and the visuals and environment of the game is great but the fact a child survived a life threatening attack from a wolf on his neck and he sounds like a character out of the powerpuff girls is ruining immersion

Takes one google search to confirm that Eivor is canonically female. Confirmed by Narrative Lead Darby McDewitt, the only reason we can choose between two genders is because of Odin’s male sage DNA in Eivor’s dna stream, which is why when you choose to let the animus decide it picks female.
