I like most of the voice acting for the PCs, among the female characters. However, I have noticed that the battle yells are in a different voice from the one who does the actual dialogue. For example, a female Sylvari will often scream when casting spells – not fully formed comments such as “I call the thunder and the lighting!”, but rather just raw screams – in a voice different from the usual one.

It bothered me for a long time, until I found a topic in GW2 Guru about the same thing, and it hit me: the screams of the female Sylvari are exactly like the scream heard at 01:07 here:

That’s Aion, a Korean NCSoft game.

Now, does someone else feel like ArenaNet reused some NCSoft assets, instead of making their own recordings? By itself this doesn’t really bother me, but the disparity between the “real” voice and the “Korean” voice is annoying.

Those are the NA voices for Aion.
And their voice acting was POORLY done, as you can hear. KR/JP voices are loads better.
Anyway, I doubt ArenaNet used that one. But then again, I refuse to play a female Sylvari.
