Bad voice acting?
I love critical role, but man does this game prove that voice actors should be actual good actors. The narrator, Xoti , Teheku, Pallegina, and most of the NPC' s are either really badly cast, or the audio director is completely deaf. It's genuinely like listening to some random 19 year old larping enthusiast reading his or her fan fiction lines out loud while their friends awkwardly shuffle on their seats. Whoever did the audio on this game, did a bad job, including the main theme.

It's ok to have opinions, even if they're wrong. Xoti is awesome.

Yeah, a completely fake, way overacted deep south american accent really fits well in this pirate theme fantasy RPG....

Well how dare you then say that they should be "good" actors when Ashley the narrator IS IN FACT a good actress?

Yeah, how DARE I say that Ashley Johnson, the star of Growing Pains and Minecraft Story Mode Season 2 isn't doing a good job as the narrator of this game. I don't know how I can sleep at night. I'm a monster.

Nobody said it can't have other accents.... just not bad ones. Pay attention, monkey. Her southern American accent sounds fake... because it is. And Ashley Johnson was great in The Last of Us and terrible in this game and a lot of other crap she's been in. Maybe you should do some research and find out who's in Critical Role (as stated in the topic). "DUUH I YELL FOR MAkIN ACTRASS BAD NAME!! HOW IS DARE U?? APE SHAL NOT KILL APE!!1!"

Xoti was among the cringiest and the worst of all the characters, especially if you follow the romance options. It screams insecure fan fiction.

Whoever wrote her dialogue should be assigned a different role on the dev team.

Don't get me wrong the voice acting and acting itself was great, it's the writer and the person who threw her in the story that screwed up.

...no, I want actors to do a good job and not make their accents sound fake. Let's try this a third time and see if you understand it now: Laura Bailey is a decent actress. Laura Bailey's southern American accent is really bad and underdeveloped. Xoti has a really bad, fake, southern American accent. It is not good. The voice director should have directed her. Laura Bailey should have done a better job. The narrator, Ashley Johnson, was good in The Last of Us. The narrator has a lisp. A lisp is not good. It is bad. It is a bad narrator. Two plus two is four. Two plus two is four. I love you, you love me, we are one big family.

Accents sound fake? It's a fantasy game with made up races, the voices can sound whatever.
