Sylvanas' new voice really sucks

[SHADOWLION]

A lot of people blamed her new voice because it does not sound like her anymore, not enough anger and hate, some line let people want to laugh. When I heard about her voice change and so many people hate the new voice. I thought "It couldn't be that bad" but when I actually heard it, I thought"WOW, it really is." Piera Coppola really did a very good job in WC3, even they could not get her back in WOW, they shouldn't use such a horrible new voice actor, it's like she did not understand the character.

3.3.2 Sylvanas' comments on Arthas' death is...well, not strong enough, both the lines and the voice acting, not enough emotion, it's like Lois Griffin trying to be cool. maybe Blizzard did not give her strong lines because the new voice actor could no do well.

[Sarcasm]

At least she's hot.

[SHADOWLION]

With her old voice she will be even more HOT.

[Spurlij]

I'm hot.

I feel like the VA was too busy trying to be... scottish?

They gave her such a bad-ass makeover to her look with Wrath, but also a very weak and terrible new voice.

Now I would even prefer her German dubbing voice.

For 1. It's the same actress as in the German version of WarCraft III
and 2. She was one of the few characters that actually got a fairly decent voice in Germany.

Not to be rude... but if shes one of the better voices in the German WC3, what does that say about german voice acting? :S

The rest of your voice actors suck?

[Rokee]

I know what you mean...

I still don't get the fact, that the German version of StarCraft was actually really, really good.
And when WC III came out I thought they might get the job done right, too.

What followed was a major disappointment. WarCraft III is IMO one of the absolute worst dubbed games ever.
The German voices range from mediocre to horrible misscasted. Especially for my favorite character in it, Grom Hellscream.

It saddens me how Blizzard couldnt get her old voice...

That and Arthas' shit voice in CoT:Strat. Seriously, I die a little inside everytime I hear that shitty voice...

[ScorchHellfire]

The old english version was better than the german chick by far...

The old arthas was 100x more fitting than the new one...

And another thing I don't get is why did they replace the voice of Kel'thuzad when they had the guy that did the war 3/vanilla wow Kel'thuzad this whole time (its the same guy that does uther and the wow lich king)

[Rokee]

I agree.
I was only talking about her new voice.

The old arthas was 100x more fitting than the new one...

Also agreed.
Nothing against his new actor, but it just doesn't sound like Arthas.

[SHADOWLION]

I remember Justin Gross, Arthas' voice actor in WC3 once posted here, right?
The new Arthas is not even close, but acceptable. Sylvanas' new voice is terrible.

Not tryin to be a dick, but is this really a big deal at all, or something thats really going to affect your playing ?

[Destram]

Most new voice actors are terrible, have you listened to Sindragosa?

[Elementium]

Occasionally they get some good voice actors but alot of the time Blizz likes to use their team for ir. *cough metzen has to do the important characters*.

[Lansworthy]

I find her new voice sexy, its like that phone sex operator I once cal...I mean yea it sucks. *cough* *cough*

Would it affect your playing if Thrall, or Varian, was inexplicably a pink unicorn?

Graphics count. So does sound. While a terrible job on a single character may not spoil the game for you, it certainly affects the experience.

[Milanor]

Remember Arthas' voice in the trailer for WotLK?

This one?

Crazy times.

But yeah, I'm happy that we'll be moving to new characters who we haven't heard the voices of before in Cataclysm.

...except....

Ragnaros. That would be sad if they changed his voice.

[Lizl]

First, I am really mad that McConnohie didn't do KT's voice again, even though they still had him... I really loved KT's old voice.

Second, who here thinks it would be cooler if the LK had the voice he had in old Naxx?

Third, Milanor, I absolutely ADORE your avatar!
