discussion Do you like voice acting in games

[kremtoa]

No for me. I turn that off.

Sound is a big part of the experience for me, voices are included in that.
I do still play many more games without voices than with voices since that seems to be what's more available with my other tastes, and there has been a game or two where the voices were not implemented well that I didn't particularly enjoy them

 

[sirloke1]

not really, most of them are not that good, so i usually just mute it.
But if the job is well done, yeah, i can appreciate it.

 

[lharak]

Depending on how it's introduced into the game, it's good, but I generally prefer it without.

 

[kjeremiah982]

I mostly play visual novels. And I tend to read quicker than the words can be spoken, But in the rare times I find it, i do enjoy it.

 

[Xeno_Frost]

i don't mind it but I'm more use to playing without it to the point i forget that those game talk themselves

 

[TM REDUX]

Usually dislike voice acting in games because due to limited budget, its mostly done poorly

 

[alyyx216]

Moaning can add a lot to a scene. But otherwise it depends on the story and the quality of the VA.

 

[Deleted member 22643]

not really its often not well done and just dries me up

 

[Bobbie55]

I prefer it because it immerses me more in the game.

 

[Konstantinople]

Never cared for them, they feel out of the place when only one or two characters have them, there are better ways to improve the immersion of a story.

 

[ColtFears]

As the commenter above says, it feels weird if only one person is speaking, and of course it also depends on the quality of the voice acting.

 

[a1fox3]

Nope, don't like it what's so ever.
I turn it off and if it can't be turned off the the volume is turned off instead.

To me it distracts from the story.

 

[SilentHunter]

No. Since the services of professionals are quite expensive, I constantly encountered either amateur voice acting or voice acting using AI. Both are terrible.

 

[akranatos]

When i start a new AVN i always select "mute all"

In the normal videogames i like voice acting, even when it is terrible, because it allows me to immerse myself more in the videogame

 

[throwaway54321]

Human voice yes, robot voice no.

 

[nightbites99]

think i agree withh most people here, when done well it really adds to the game but it's just so rarely done well. I think its best for games to just do it in certain scenes if they can't have it good and consistently though

 

[salk2014]

sounds fake to me

 

[hensd]

I enjoy the voices in most games, if i don´t like them i change them to another language and then it is funny!

 

[kermitsu]

Love it but I've encountered very few games that have it.
