Race Change Request

sMuggle · August 2021

How many times have you spent an hour + detailing your nice beefy brawny male Orc and gave a listen to all the voice samples, just to find out the voice you chose is a yelp like an Anime Loli in game?

I'd like to request a 24hr character design edit or at least option to change the voice. The samples just don't cover some of those like templar jabjab and it's a yah yah yah..

Thanks!

Or just a better selection of what sounds they actually make. Seems like the most common voice sounds aren't even given among the default examples.

I always sit there for an unholy amount of time listening to each voice sample agonizing over the decision. Asking myself the basic questions, is this one too high? does it say what I want it to say about my character? can I live with this voice?

Most of the time I come out okay character-wise. Other times immediate regret that means I go back in and redo everything all over again.

More voice samples will make my suffering less agonizing. With more variety to choose from.

IMHO female voices are much worse, especially when landing from high ground or getting hit. Seriously, this... I don't know how to call it... moaning? It is so annoying. Never had such issue with male.

Issue is when you've done a race change and saved. There's no going back, unless you're willing to cough up another 3k crowns just to edit the voice, and possibly end up with a worse choice

The problem with the sound samples is they aren't the sounds you would hear normally in your average gameplay. They need to include additional sound samples like when you sprint your mount or the battle shout when performing an attack.

EXACTLY! Those sound samples are totally missing when designing character..
