Hey all, just to clarify: the same voice actress, Tara Strong, was used for Sereyne both in Elsweyr and in the house guest.

Thank you for clarification on this! I do still hear a difference, but I'm glad to get an official answer!

How it is possible that there are few hundreds unanswered questions regarding content/bugs/performance/lack of communication but the only answer we got from last 2 weeks was about crown store item...

Mmm they posted on the crashing post just now. Werewolf bug issue they're still ignoring with zero updates.

I also swear I was never gonna spend money on any House Guests...

I was even laughing at how people are insane to spend money on Guests...

Then @SantieClaws posted her house and I met the kitty...

I was trying to see all the Dialogue and there was so much I never finished.

But fell In love...

I have the Cat banker and Merchant...

So I bought the Sereyne for My SO.

She will enjoy it more then I do.

Do you guys think I should also get one for myself, I am not into housing yet...

I feel I might regret it ...

This one thinks that if you were ever going to want to get just one houseguest then Seyrene might be the one,

She fits right in anywhere with a bar yes!

Yours with paws

I purchased Sereyne. I enjoy the little Alfiq living in my home.
What I did not enjoy was having to remove my Netch who resides in my cave in order to do so.

Houseguests purchased through the crown store should come with 1 extra slot to use for NPC/houseguest/pets/mounts.

It's not the same voice. It might be the same actress, but it's not the same voice, so in that case it's an issue with voice direction.

OG Sereyne's voice is high pitched and melodic with some really fun volume modulations and pace changes, while Houseguest Sereyne's voice is a rougher, flatter delivery.

Maybe she tried to sound more drunk, or like she has a cold, but the Houseguest came out without Sereyne's original charm, and sounds like an average Slavic hairdresser lady with some cigarettes and a bottle of Rakia in front of her (I'm from Eastern Europe so I'm allowed to make that joke, okay?)

Thank you for the side by side I knew I wasn't crazy, but I also didn't want to be rude.

Ahhh, I see what you all mean about the difference in voice — it does indeed sound like the same voice actress (as was confirmed) but the line delivery is rather different. I too like the delivery of her lines in the quest dialogue better, but am still happy to have her crash at my place!

SickleCider

My interpretation of the difference in delivery is that Sereyne is now comfortable with you, and therefore more relaxed. Comfortable enough in fact to just crash at your house.

Of course, the real reason is that it had been a while since Tara had done Sereyne when she came back to reprise the role. I think it's kind of like how vocalists always sound different in concert than they do recorded.
