Fortune Teller & Shiro are very "lovely" companions I'd say ^_^

Funny thing is, that anet got Steve Blum one of the greatest voice actors in my opinion of all time to va factions, im not sure what characters he did though.

DANIKA WINS!

THE most annoying voice evar! Sounds like a Redneck-TrailorTrash-Hick missing all her teeth and has 18 kids. lol.

reverse_oreo · Jun 13, 2006, 05:13 AM // 05:13

are you guys kidding me? The worst voices ever in this game are by far the chosen. "Dwyana protect us!" its from uhm some stupid mission i cant remember. "OH NO!" god that is just horrible

Danika and Fortune Teller FTL

QFT

Shiro takes the cake for me though, at least Danika had fewer scenes. Shiro sounds like a freaking retarded caveman. How are we supposed to believe that this monosyllable, grade school intelligence, bully is thwarting our heroes?

Danika sounds like a stoned Betty Boop. So I vote her. :P

In the second slot is barbarian woman Elder Rhea, followed by the Forever Grove tree keeping Baron (I think it was Vasburg), who I swear was lisping his lines.

I think a lot of the bad voice acting actually stems from bad writing. It's not just the voices that are bad. It's the lines. The lines are so generic that it's hard to give the characters a solid vocal performance, because they all lack any signs of character development.

this is out of place, but the best one was the guy who yelled, "Master Togo!, Master Togo!"

Agree, practically none of the lines showed any characterization... you could take any line and give it to another character and it would fit them. Get back to work, Factions script writers!

elder rhea by far for me.

danika wasnt too bad cept for the cut after arborstone where shes talking about the wards failing (that WAS horrible).

togo i think was pretty well done

how specTACular would it have been to have scenes for certain quests featuring ....... christopher walken as eurus and steve irwin as turimachus!?!

bigwig · Jun 13, 2006, 06:00 AM // 06:00

fortune teller. by far

i don't even mind togo, or mhenlo or danika, like i hear everyone else complaining about. but if i hear "beware the harvest ceremony" one more god damn time!

Kaguya · Jun 13, 2006, 06:25 AM // 06:25

Danika fo sho'. Doesn't fit the role at all @_x

Amadei · Jun 13, 2006, 07:13 AM // 07:13

Danika. No contest. Personality-wise, she's fine, but her voice? I had expected something a little more dignified.

I like Mhenlo's voice, as well as Master Togo's and Elder Rhea's. They all have voices that fit them, IMO.

Now, if they ever give Cynn a voice, they BETTER not screw that up :P

Sol Deathgard · Jun 13, 2006, 07:22 AM // 07:22

Danika, hands down, I beg people to skip cutscenes that she talks in

Aarroe of Gilgamesh · Jun 13, 2006, 07:40 AM // 07:40

i vote togo for worst. if i were to imagine what a pedophile sounds like...

mhenlo for most disappointing. fo' all the pimpin' that boy done (cynn, jamei, chiyo, emi,...) he should have definitely been more smooth. (maybe even using the "b" word and showing cynn the back of his hand a few times...)

danikas voice was terrible, but i have a lot of trailer trash on my father's side of the family, so i'm used to it.

that dragon i won't attampt to spell, but i liked the voice.

evennias voice acting was good, but she was scripted terribly. when she threatens the gods using balthazar as her witness at the end of iron mines i always chuckle.

saidras voice gets my vote for sexiest.

i liked ruriks voice, and his script. it think he is just made cheesy by his AI, and the fact that he, and saidra, turn into plot devices.

shadowfell · Jun 13, 2006, 07:51 AM // 07:51

Mhenlo is the keanu reeves of gw.. duh-ika drives me nuts.. I can't even listen to her anymore.. but honestly, the worst voice I have ever heard comes from the nahpui quarter mission, at the end..that woman omg... it sounds like what happens when a bubble headed porn star tries to act..

will ...... you be

taking

..us to

eternal....

....paradise?

Then Shiro cuts in with... "yesssss.. you will become my slave" or something equally said.. and at this point.. you can que the porn groove soundtrack and kick the bubbles companion out of the picture.. or not.... lol

*screams*

burai · Jun 13, 2006, 08:03 AM // 08:03

Shiro and Danika for me, but all the voices are bordering on hideous - somewhere near the sleepy village of Arrgghh!!

Elri · Jun 13, 2006, 08:10 AM // 08:10

Elder RHea all the way its goddam awful,u cann so tell its a young person trying to imitate someone old,makes me cringe..

Tingi · Jun 13, 2006, 08:12 AM // 08:12

yes deff danika
