voice of female inquisitor is bad

[Anna Loral]

just wondering if anyone have same problem as me :D I mean its not rly a problem. the game is AWESOME I totally love it. But I play as female class as I like her weapons most and in overall I like to play female heroes in rpgs. The story is great and male voice is PERFECT just perfect but as female inquisitor it just doesnt fit to me, its putting me off the feeling being inside the game which otherwise this game does perfectly, all the story missions and you being inquisitor having your ship etc. with the guy inquisitor everyhing clicks but the woman sounds like 70 years old teacher which would fit for example as the blazing witch in vermintide because they also made her visually look like that. but here its this eldar athletic young looking heroine with huge blonde ponytail and she sounds like theresa may :D yea this is so far the only thing I dont like along the chat riddled with russian and german language. otherwise the game is 11/10 I absolutely love it.

Personally really like it. Fairly sulty and stern yet also has some finesse to her. Haven't had the old lady vibe at all myself. Was my favourite out of the three till the psyker update.

Thing is I imagine her as someone who's been murdering people for her whole life which would not be a short one. It takes decades to climb through the ranks to become an inquisitor and being a death worshipping blood drinker, i'd not want her to sound youthful or lacking authority. She needs to be intimidating and able to give orders.

And this is her face - if it helps with the visualisation :D

oh thats a picture from guys that made the game? ok that face can fit. its just the model looks young. young or middle aged can still sound intimidating and fearless... but yea by that picture it would be K. it just doesnt meet the game model :(

I think the issue is they don't show her face and the hair being that shade of blonde.

But this is 40k, where you can be 140 years old and have the body of a 30 year old. As an inquisitor I think the assumption should be that she's been around a while. But that being said I think showing her face (which is pretty stern) would balance it.

While on the subject. A deathcult face mask (bandanna thing) would be cool.

I think the death cult assassin has the best voice acting. She does sound mature but she is probably hundreds of years old despite her appearance so it definitely fits.

I really like it, it's unique
but I didn't like it in the beginning

You get used to it and start to like it

Crusader sounds like an old school puritan inquisitor
Psyker sounds like, well, nowadays black libraray novel series inquisitor hero
And the assassin...she sounds quiet like a radical female warrior, I am not sure if it is fit for inquisitor but I indeed like it.

[Slingshot]

crusader sounds to me like a black guy would be not a problem if he is not white..

[Ceangailte]

i have a deep voice as a girl. *cry* :P Can be fun to iritade some boys *laugh*

But honestly i like the voice, deep but fits very well in the theme.

[zerObit]

The voice itself I dont have a problem with, but its more the immersion side for me, some of the voice lines themselves don't really fit:

Fooooooooooooooor the emprah!!
Terminus Est (why would an Inquisitor say the name of a Nurgle Capital Ship when she kills someone?)

And, I know its a joke in the 40K community, but she says heresy faaaaarr too much haha.

The Inquisitors are all hyper serious, fundamentalist zealots and sometimes, at least with the assassin, it doesnt feel like that.

Thanks for the feedback! At this point, I'm pretty sure we won't change voices at this point though.

I know that we can't please everyone, and whatever voice will choose will not be perfect for 100% of the players, but we'll always try our best.

[Irrelevant]

I just don't like the voice but that's simply my taste. The voice acting is on point but realy.... i won't talk more then I have to to a person with that voice... me so sorry ^^.

[luckz]

Are the voice acting recordings for her sped up, like playing too fast? It seems the voice actress was either hurried or the recordings were made faster after the fact.
After the very fitting Crusader, playing the Assassin is really painful. 20% of the time it's the actress not understanding her lines (pronouncing 'van Wynter' as if 'Van' was a first name), the rest of the time it's just wayyyyyy too fast.

i think the face and hair is bad. the voice is awsome.

The voice is awesome, goes for all three characters. I just wish you would remove the horrible pony tail from the assassin ;D Boob armor is kind of 40k lore, i supose, otherwise i would ask for that to go as well.

voice acting is one of the few things they did right

imo the female voice is fine
