Hello.
I have played my Norn for a long time now, and I was wondering if you would make new voices for every race?

Specially because Norn female has the worst voice ever in my opinion.
I really like the small dialog between players and players to npc’s, and I would enjoy it a lot more if my character didn’t sound like a lesbian heavyweight dead lifter on steroids (which is totally okay to be) .. I hope you know what I mean

You could implement it in the body/face change through the gem store or give everyone a free option, how you chose to do it is of course up to you.

Best.

Suggested many times before, won’t happen because of very large costs involved.

I’d love to have several voice options as well (especially for human male), but I completely understand why it’s not feasible.

It’s already expensive to voice a line. Each line of character dialog requires multiple voice actors, 5 races x 2 sexes x 4 supported languages, so adding even one more voice needs 20 more redoes of each line of character dialog. Maybe they can add some sort of slider to change the pitch but anything other than that would be expensive.

Be careful what you ask for
ANet may give it to you.

Totally understand your equation and price of the change and i think you have a good idea.
Or put filters on that could change it somehow. I don’t know their tech side of it.
But i think a lot of players would be tremendously happy about it if possible.

The pitch solution is a dirty but functional option. I’ll totaly support that, specially for making male humans to sound older or less heroic.

No one is asking for it to be replaced. It does indeed suit my mesmer, for example… but not my warrior. And to be honest, it’s the most… schizophrenic voice of them all. Nothing like somber low-pitch HoT dialogue interrupted by jovial “EAT MY DUST”.

What’s wrong with female norn voice? Try listening to the female human voice, “braham get back here!” In the screechiest voice ever conjured.

That why it’s a pleasure to play female Asura. Colleen O’Shaughnessey voice is just perfect, expresive without being exaggerated, femenine without being girly, strong, tender and funny when the ocassion needs it. Love her work.
