Did the Devs ever thought of...

Maybe we all start speaking with the same voice, and it turns out it’s this guy standing around the corner messing with us:

Its a nice idea in theory but...

I'm a big fan of old school strategy turn based rpgs. Suikoden Tactics, Final Fantasy tactics and especially Shining Force.

I was very excited when they decided to bring Shining force into the 2000's. Turns out it was a mess. Particularly annoying was the voice work for each of the characters. They only had a couple of phrases which they would yell out over and over and over again. One of the healers main catchphrase? "They're coming! They're coming!".

No. Please for the love of what little sanity thats left in this world...no.

Yet another thing that Bioware did with Star Wars: The Old Republic that Daybreak could learn from. At Character Creation, there's no option given to choose your character's voice, at least not that I noticed, but so far, on the 3 characters I've made, I've been happy with the voices the game gave them.

"gets hit by a dot" - stuck in "headpain" emote for 20 seconds"

Oh yeah, Guild Wars 2 has the same. in open world, I often hear my human warrior saying "I can outrun a centaur" I turned sound off lol

Its just combat noises, no spoken lines.

So true, and I can see it from both sides.
People do already talk by their microphone while the NPCs are playing their role in movies.
Maybe just allow the characters' mouth to move while the player is talking.

Oh yeah definitely, I was just wondering if it was ever thought of. Maybe this is something that was possible with the game's creation, but since It's not at It's core it will be super weird and useless to add now I guess. I appreciate the reply though!

and we French or Francophone, would like to find the French voices as at the beginning of the game!

While I do see your point, can't this be applied to us all having essentially the same emotes and body types?

Something like this could work lol but It would be rather tiredsome after a while

This!

I like that idea.

I would say let us record our own grunts and short quips but thre are a lot of immature people that play this game and it would quickly go south lol. What I do wish was that there was a some sort of RP server or Shard that people who want to RP can phase to.

Not gonna lie it would be hella weird to log in one day and your character can talk....after you spent several years imagining what they would sound like lol

Not dialogue, but combat grunts, with the option to turn off that audio channel in particular (to yourself / all)

Maybe they can give us a RP phase at the phase shifter

PVE/ PVP/ RP PVE

True but they have to add in some high definition eyes or itll look unsettling of a character that talks but doesnt blink

Looks like we still will be silent but deadly

Was Worth the try
