Does Anybody Like the Autotuned Robot Voice?
Hire the "mind the gap" or the lift floor lady already. There's a reason those voices were selected to remind you of things.

No, it's very annoying after awhile. I would rather have a simpe tone acknowledging I've done something.

I can't say it bothers me, though the 75% one is a little unnecessary, which they apparently fixed in the most recent patch.

I still get it for hazards levels... and three more times at fifty, twenty-five, and 10 percent. All to remind me of something I can see on the UI the entire time.

Psychologically it might be good to hear a voice. Maybe it will help us to not go mad from lonliness like Tom Hanks in Castaway and start talking to rocks and stuff.

If the game's strong point is "wander and chill" the mechanics need to get the hell out of the way from letting you do that.

I did see a funny post where somebody was rolling an orb around with a wilson theme to it.
I don't mind the computer voice. To a certain point it reminds me of GlaDOS or the Star Trek one. Only thing that could be off is the warning at life support / hazard protection down to 75%.

I like it. If you don't, you can change it with these mods.

Grazi. I will try those but not sure they will make the nagging bearable. I just turn the sound off. :/

I'd rather K.I.T's voice from Knight Rider but No Man's Sky's isn't unpleasant. I'm just glad they finally nerfed the dayum 75% warning.

Edit: Partially Nerfed

I would rather have nothing saying anything unless I'm about to die. (and that includes no beeps or other annoying sounds)

The constant refrain of 'technology recharged' irritates me no end. But that is as much the fault of the awful mechanic of having to recharge stuff every few minutes as the voice.

I think the robot voice is fine, though that may be because I'm British.
