I suggest that you show your voice actors the characters they are voicing, before recording the voice-over lines. This would solve a problem that has been annoying me since day 1: very few of the in-game characters have voices suited to their looks. A quick example: Moto looks about 25 years old, and sounds about 70. GW2 voice actors are very talented, and I love the voice acting, but it doesn’t match the vast majority of the characters.

A slightly related suggestion: be more mindful of where you place characters that have the same voice. Moto sounds exactly the same as the Herald that stands just 15 feet away, and this really takes away from his character individuality.

Thank you,

We should be able to choose between several voices while creating our characters. Maybe I want my human warrior to be scottish, not neutral accent.

Wish it was implemented before GW2 was created….

Yeah that too. I tried to make my Charr as cute and small as possible, and he gets the voice of a big black guy, lol!

I have noticed also that the voice of many NPCs doesn’t fit their look.

Reason: charrs aren’t cute and small. This isn’t hello kitty online.

@Gandarel: Anyone can be anything! That’s why it’s called “role playing”

@Amphibian phallus: What’s wrong with him being black? So off topic though, lol!
