    Calaydus (warlock demon that helps you) sounds like an 80's saturday morning cartoon character. X'era sounds like Cate Blanchett swallowed Tilda Swinton and got stuck in her throat. A lot of the VA in legion is cringeworthy. Liam O'Brien (voice of Illidan) which sounds fine, deliveres some of the worst edgemaster bunk lines in the entire game. The guy sounds like someone fighting a massive duce out-loud in a truck stop gas station toilet.
    If you are progressing through content just to obtain gear, you are doing it wrong. You, in fact, are doing it exactly backwards.

    it was a image of him... that wasent the actual malfurion saying that... xavius was basicly doing the "im malfurion dur hur im so stupid listen to my stupid voice im dumb"

    10. I was literally in tears and it's become a meme in our household as well.

    I knew it was Xavius, but it was still hilarious, and also why I won't quantify it as bad voice acting. The goal was to mock Malfurion and Tyrande, which he succeeded.

    Love or women. Had Tyrande been written similarly to Nathanos in his search for Sylvanas she would have been a total badass, instead what we got had me actually liking Xavius. They made Twilight look like a better love story than Malfurion & Tyrande. :P

    While Xavius may have been behind the dialogue during that one quest leading to Darkheart Thicket, that doesn't give the VA a pass for the terrible "Noooo!" when Cenarius disappears earlier in the quest chain. The entire chain made me almost laugh at how bad the dialogue was. Almost.

    All Blizzard VA is atrocious and always has been, not really new.

    Tyrande has such a shrill, banshee voice. Malfurion sounds like a big nerd.
    Tired of ElvUI and its various clones?

    Try one of these:

    Altz UI
    // RealUI // KaitUI // ls: UI

    Tyrande continued to suck.

    And Xavius-Malfurian was a giant ham.

    I actually laughed at X-M, in a good way.

    Xavius is a funny guy. He even got some people here. Still, the "Noooo" quest was still absolutely terrible. Whoever is behind Malfurion's voice doesn't know how to do emotional voice.

    That was a Revenge of the Sith level flat delivery.

    Hated Malf and Tyrande before this expansion, super duper hate them now.

    Then Malfy talks mad shit in DHT while you're the one saving his ass.

    Doesn't stop me from reading Mal&Xavius Fics. What a lovely ship! Tyrande is just in the way of true love.

    Xavius' plan was to distract Tyrande, cause enough anguish and frustration chasing after illusions begging for her help (and buy time for Ysera to lay siege) to make her choose Malf over her duty. She'd rush into the thicket and get caught just like Malf was after Cenarius was turned.

    But she didn't. Her and Malf's entire relationship is built around their love for each other due to their integrity and duty-bound nature. Xavius didn't realize this, that they would choose their duty over each other since its the core of their relationship. She went back to deal with the real problem at hand at the Temple of Elune.

    It was pretty obvious to me that it was not the actual Malfurion talking when he said "I need you!" in a very fake, desperate voice. It was just Xavius messing with Tyrande and the player. It was kind of hilarious and I believe that was intentional.

    The story in Val'sharrah is very dark and depressing overall, so it worked as a way to lighten the mood a bit just before the most emotional part of the zone played out at the Temple of Elune.

    That's just Xavius mocking you and Tyrande by giving his most hated Nemesis the whiniest, girliest, damsel-in-distress voice he could. Not actually Malf buddy.

    "Tuhranduh!?! Help meeee!!" My wife and I laughed so hard at that.
