It's really grating and I could stand no more. I don't mind them using the same voice actor - but at least make an effort to sound a LITTLE different for the different roles.Like on male Asura and Humans? Or female Asura and Charr? They also use the same voice actor the the guttural sounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vision.7265 Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Thanks for making my game fun, April. As a side note, whoever voices Slupsloop at Tequatl is good. Slupsloop sounds so genuinely scared. "It's coming!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aru.4156 Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 God, I just adore the male Sylvari voice actor. I may have been quite lucky that his voice felt perfect for my first character/main toon but I wouldn't have it any other way.But this man's voice acting just astounds me. I guess I feel so even more than some other players would due to the fact that I played all story after base game immediately one after the other. LS2, Heart of Thorns, LS3, Path of Fire, and a bit spotty but the first two and last episode of season 4, and now season 5 and I'm always blown away by the voice actor. It's real subtle but to me it really sounds like he's understanding that the commander character is heavily emotionally affeted as the story goes on and his voice has these little nuances that reflect that. It's fantastic. In base game he was confident, rather cheerful. Move on to Season 2 and he's surrounded by a sense of urgency (same for much of Heart of Thorns as well), and his voice in LS3 to Path of Fire just continues to get more heavy, darker, tired I'd say. And it works, phenominally. Again, his voice fits my toon perfectly so it really makes the story so much more impactful for me and I love it.

Smeerlap.2698 Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Can not pick one sorry, i think they are all very good.Most iconic / memorable to me would be Claudia Black (star gate SG1 series actress) voicing for (Dragon Age Morrigan & Mass Effect) her voice is just wonderful.

ugrakarma.9416 Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 i like very much the Priestess Rhie from personal history.https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Priestess_RhieAlso i like "badass" style of some charr's characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnusthorek.8027 Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Jennifer Hale, hands down. Having Commander Shepard in Guild Wars, even with a different tone and accent, was the reason I made my little cabbage head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anyma.1675 Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Now, I know this post is pretty old but let me vote as well :D For me it's totally Brandon Bales, although (as a Critter and because he's awesome) I really like Matt Mercer as well! But male sylvari is my main <3 I like Jennifer Hale too, but there are too many memories of Mass Effect going on to enjoy it in a new way ^^@GDchiaScrub.3241 said:No love for french or german voice overs. RIPD:Honestly, even though I'm native german, I've never really played in German ^^' Maybe it's only my taste but I don't like most of the german voice acting - not just in gw2.

Played Heart of Thorns (actually re-played the whole story of HoT because of him!) in less than two days and just started Season 3. Haven't played further on yet but absolutely looking forward to it ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JekthAvid.1408 Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Brandon Bales, no question. I've got every race both male and female and he is just... the best. It also helps that I main a sylvari male... ?Edit: Asura female is also good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyCake.4216 Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 I voted for the Female Sylvari but it was a very close second for the Female Asura. Jennifer Hale does a great job at really delivering that "classic" Sylvari curiosity while not letting it completely define the character. It's very clear, forward, and direct. Easy to appreciate and easy to tell she's been doing this for a long time!However, the Female Asura lines are the meanest ones in the game. Yet Colleen delivers the lines without a trace of of it being unnatural. It's just how Asura are and you can really get that cultural influence in her telling someone that they'll leave a dumb corpse. So well executed that it never breaks the reality that Colleen has probably never said that before in her life whereas an Asura would grow up saying stuff like that. Kate Miller did a great job, too. She had to voice a giant cat! Not an easy feat I'd imagine. I think if Charr lines were more interesting (not her fault) then she'd be higher on the list. I think as a race though, Sylvari came out on top. The game honestly has pretty great voice acting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoosh.2718 Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Sadly the Female Human voice got ruined for me when i realised its the same person who voiced Sharon Marsh from South Park... so now i cant stop seeing a middle aged cartoon mum when ever my character speaks... If you don't want to ruin your GW2 experience... do not check Sharon Marsh out in South Park. ¬_¬ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawdler.8521 Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 If you put together the Charr female voice lines just right, it becomes a hot and steamy sequence of... ah nevermind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AliamRationem.5172 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 A big thank you to Colleen O'Shaughnessey! I've always loved the voicework for the Female Asuran above all others and was just talking about exactly that in game with a returning player I encountered. Then I log on to the forums and see this thread! Nice timing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynder.2509 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 It was a really hard choice for me between male Sylvari and male Charr but I chose sylvari because I miss the old charr voice a bit. But that is for the English version only. If it was about the German dub (which I haven't heard in years now) I'd take the charr voice just solely for the fact that my first ever character was a charr.But actually every voice actor is doing a good job here although I can't stand the female voices (mainly in combat) which is also a reason why I play male characters only aside from the fact that playing female characters as a man makes me a bit uncomfortable.
