I hate my character's voice

Vulix

Please let me change it.

You had the option to pick amongst a bunch of them at character creation.

Yes, but you don't hear the full range of what they have to say. My character sounds like a dying rooster when he drops from small heights.

Buuut, the "voice samples" provided during character generation are often suboptimal.

In any case, many people have made calls for cosmetic post-creation change options in various ways (hair, tatoos, eyecolor, skin hue, general appereance, voice...) to fix things they later find didn't look (or sound) in the game like the creation promised, and so on... be it an gold-pay in world option (a good possibility would be a transformation-magic specialist in the someday added thieves or assassins guild that can help people not look like their wanted posters anymore...) or an cash shop "character redesign token" to buy...

I myself would use the option too, change small details on a few characters to get them looking and sounding more like my vision of them... thus I hope this will be implemented in the not too distant future...

You should hear my character when she executes the carve skill, grunting like a weightlifter.

This is one of many post-creation customization features that needs to be added to the game.

When you're making a character, 9 out of 10 "randomized" sound clips that you're provided with when trying to select a voice just have your character laughing, which doesnt tell you at all what they'll sound like in combat, doing different emotes, falling, so on and so forth.

i have the same trouble here , my char cry like a pig when he fall and hurl like a barbarian in fight .. very annoing . then i select this voice it's because they laugh with some cynical tonality and with finess ...

Not only to change voices, but how about some new and better samples, especially for the female high elves? One of the nicest character models with, imo, the most horrible voice choices.

The last character creation I sat through - I swear all the voices only had grunts and laugher playing and the really all sounded the same.

Samadhi

My girlfriend has a female Sorcerer that sounded great on the character select screen, sounds okay in game most of the time, but bellows with a deeper, more masculine voice than my male characters when performing a CC break.

At times I wonder if there are some glitches in which voices actually play in game.

Let me guess, female High Elf?
Yesterday I started a new character, for this I had to delete one first. I didn't hesitate one bit deleting my High Elf. Reason: that horrible voice! I didn't play this character anymore in months, just because of that. Even when I hear another player nearby with the exact same voice, I need a bucket.

The problem during character creation is that the example voices are mostly just laughing, or sounding like they're trying to lift a horse. I better don't mention another example. So you cannot actually tell how each voice would sound like in the game.

My character sounded (in-game) like being stabbed all the time. Just jumping down from the tiniest pebble, and she was screaming like she's being murdered. That's no exaggeration! ALL - THE - TIME!
So yesterday it was me who stabbed her when I deleted this character.


Edit: I just noticed you wrote "he" already, sorry. But my posting is still valid after "female"

Blkadr

My female sorcerer also has a very deep, manly voice that was not one of the options when I made her.

dodgehopper_ESO

My Imperial has a cool voice for most things, but when he falls he sounds so ridiculous. Awaahahahwaoawohaoha! If I could change one sound, it would be that. The rest is fine. I'm sure a lot of us feel the same way about many of the voices.

NordJitsu

I'd like to be able to pay for access to the entire character creator, except for race and class changes.

I had the launch big where the creator was stuck all the way zoomed out and my main character is much more frowny than I'd like.

NotSo

I often push my newly created characters through the gauntlet before deciding if they get pushed into the furnace so I can remake them again. Too bad there's a delete limit. Most of my guys only make it to about level 6 before reroll.

kieso

I hate my char's voice too, one of them at least, it took alot of trial and error to find a decent High elf voice. That delete limit really hurts, I hope ZOS hurries up and makes a character re-make kit soon, they ve been slacking in that department.

HAHA awesome. I think, our characters have the same voice. She sounds like a dying chicken, when falling down. I was aware of this but I decided to still choose this, because the combat sounds of the other voices were just horrible and come on, you'll rarely here the falling sounds.

Still, I want an in game character editor, so that we can change it again.

NordJitsu

Skyrim added one.

ESO should too.

My male Imperial screams like a girl at times. Either the guy they got to record the male Imperial misunderstood the role, or they have the wrong sound files associated with the male Imperial.

With your male character raaawr

Elsonso

Yeah. I will pass. The guards would toss him in the dungeon and he would scream like a girl.

Archer Bearclaw

Yes please! This is so important to me I actually reset the password I forgot just to post this response. My character cries like a little girl everytime he jumps off a rock. Not the hero image I was going for on character creation! Do this before champion system!

Morshire

I have not been able to decide if my toon is trying to push a turd or pass a kidney stone when she falls, then she has a roar that wouldn't scare a flea when she breaks CC. As a guy, I was hoping for the sexy voice I picked when I created her, but even in a fantasy world, wet dreams are ruined.

kieso

Tones just don't seem consistent at all.

freespirit

I am female playing female characters, whose voices don't really annoy me......

BUT one of my biggest smiles happens in group dungeons when her beefy male companions jump from height.....

I always hang back to get the best rendition of the 3 of them screaming like girls!!

Pchela

When my male dunmer hops he sounds like a frog

Is it bad that I know EXACTLY the voice you're talking about? XD

riverdragon72

Half of my female DK's voice clips are male lol

radiostar

One of my chars sounds like a donkey when hitting with her sword. Or maybe it's a big pig.

Rosveen

Have you ever played a female Argonian? It's painful.

Wicked_Wolf

This topic has me laughing so hard. I can pretty much hear every one of the sounds you all are talking about, especially that awwhoaehoaaaawhoaa sound. I always die laughing when I'm just standing somewhere and a toon just randomly falls to the floor from above me, and makes one of those crazy screams.
