Fallout 4

Fallout 4

Courtenay Taylor (Nora)
Probably the most boring voice actress I've heard.
I have nothing against her as a person, but as a voice actress she is terrible.
At least she is in Fallout 4. She sounds so bored when reading her lines, there is no immersion in there at all. Brian T. Delaney (Nate) however is alot better. Almost all the other voice actors in this game are.

Remember the very beginning, when Nate wakes up to find Nora dead?
Remember the anger and how frightened he was when he opened up her pod?
Now compare the exact same scenario, but with Nora instead.

What? Mature responses when someone has an opinion that runs contrary to the criticisms I've read in the past? Good job guys :) Really expected a bunch of flamining posts, was refreshing to see thought out responses.

I only have the one character right now and that one is male. I don't get the criticism I've read about the voice actor, dosn't seem any worse than voice actors I've heard in other games that get zero hate. Given the choice though, I'd rather not have a voice acted protagonist at all, I'd rather imagine my characters reactions and emotions than to have someone tell me what they are. But overall I can live with it and have no real complaints.

yeah. I do admit that. I am kind of on the fence about how good the voiced protagonist worked out. I would have liked them to atleast take the Mass EFfect approach and give us the paragon /renegade choice of voiced response. It would have given us more options. I suppose the voiced protagonist was inevitable, since the AAA industry almost always has a voiced protagonist.
I was quite surpised and delighted that the protagionist finally got a voice and a camera angle in F4. In the previous games it felt like appearance was a complete waste and I missed not having full dialogue.
it does give more drama to the story. But it takes away part of my own story so they can tell theirs. In the end, it doesn't really affect me that much. I like the female voice actor, and a lot of the lines are clever and entertaining. They just aren't always in the voice or tone i would have my character use.

I thought she was great. Really nailed emotions, sarcasm, being threatening etc.

i liked her. Thought she did a good job. It helped that i liked her voice a lot. Some of the emotions could have been ramped up. It would have made her character a bit more hysterical (not funny, but emotionally). To me, as a parent who can't imagine losing a child like this, i would be freaking out if this happened to me. Sobbing like a little woman. This would probably be too much for most players. And that is probably why her emotions were a bit tame.

Nope? I remember *laughing* at how ridiculous he sounds.
