I'm so frustrated because Dragon Age doesn't have my character speak the dialogue that i've choosen !!
It should have character speak voice, one of the many joys of later game
"Mass Effect" was hearing your character speak the dialogue you had
chosen. I hope Dragon Age release a big patch for this ! Please fix it! I will buy if you release this patch. Thanks you ! This is game are good but PLEASE.. PLEASE.. PLEASE I beg you make the patch for the character voice and action speak dialogue.. It will motivate me to buy this game ! Who agree with me ? please comment below...:(

While it would be neat, the sheer volume of dialogue that would need to be required makes it impossible. You'd have to have enough dialogue for each of the 12 character possibilites for the entire 50+ hour game. Not going to happen.

Do you understand how big of an undertaking it would be to patch all of the MC dialogue into the game, with how many voice sets there are and how much dialogue there is? IIRC there are two voice sets in ME (male and female), and far less dialogue.



The best you can hope for is for it to be apart of a hypothetical sequal.

I don't buy the "it's too much" argument. The game already has 80 gazillion lines of spoken dialogue, they could have gone the whole way and added your dialogue. It's not game breaking, but it is distracting for a while.

I'm also really disappointed with this, especially since Mass Effect had it. It adds so much to the atmosphere and immersion and really helps you to identify with your character...



However, I understand that this game is so big and complex that SOMEWHERE they HAD TO cut some costs...

Haha, nice way of looking at it, you're right Archangel... Would it really have made such a difference? Hmm...

I think I read something about immersion somewhere. Apprantly you can connect better to your main char if he has no voice but the one in your head.

I, for one, am talking about patching it in. They'd have to bring in a multitude of new voice actors and get all the work done now, about a week after the game's launch. Who knows how long that would take. It's not realistic to think about it at this point. Like I said, the best you can hope for is that it appears in a sequel. I would be shocked if they patched it in.

This was definately the reason.
Npcs will often respond the same or add one line or two when you say different things, however every possible PC dialogue line for every race and gender would really be too much.

Mass Effect did it, yes. but no other RPG so far. And from what I can tell until now there is a lot more spoken dialogue in this game :-)

Hmm. That's quite the request. Even if they had selected a single actor/actress for the male and female roles and used those voices for all the race/class/origin combinations, that's still a metric f_ton of dialogue you're asking for.

It's your character in Dragon Age. Pretend he/she has YOUR voice. With the voice acting in Mass Effect, it stopped being YOUR character and simply became you taking control of Cmdr. Shepherd.

I prefer it without a voice. Its MY character, not whoever voiced it.

Also consider that in Mass Effect, no matter which class you chose, what demeanor your were (paragon/renegade), or how you looked, you were playing Cmdr. Shepherd. Also, if you happened to create a new male Shepherd with a different face, consider how weird it sounded to have that voice emanating from a different face - the first Shepherd you create always remains the Shepherd you identify with.

Finally, give some thought to how awkward and immersion-breaking it would be to have the same voice speaking from whatever Dragon Age character you create. The Male Noble sounds the same as the Dwarf Commoner? NOW give some thought to the immense size of the request you're asking if you didn't want that and wished to have multiple voice actors for each race and all the dialogue they'd have to read to fit every possible permutation of character, class, and origin story.

Having played all of BioWare's RPGs (some more than others), I have to say that I'm glad the main character in DA:O isn't voiced. It seemed very strange in Mass Effect to have Shepherd's lines spoken, especially because the dialogue option you picked wasn't exactly what Shepherd said. That really threw me off after a while, and I missed the "silent hero" thing from KotOR and similar.



Besides, I grew up with the NES and SNES, where nobody had spoken dialogue. I hardly consider it a necessity. *grin*

I understand the possible reasoning for not adding in the voice of the main character aside from the handful of spoken phrases that are in the game. But I wish they'd been able to add voices for all the dialogue. ME spoiled me I suppose, but I really enjoyed that aspect of the game even if there were only two voice options.



Being able to choose a voice for my character in DA got me all excited at first. I think for Bioware to add in all the possible character voices at this point it would have to come in the form of DLC. And probably an expensive one to boot. It'd probably be cost prohibitive for them to try and patch it in for free.

A "patch" for something like this would quite possibly be half a GB or a GB in size. Sounds are huge, and the all those various lines recorded in the, what, TWELVE possible voices? That would be crazy.



They could do it with Mass Effect because there were only two voices, ever, and less dialog. Not so, here.

While this would be nice to have, until they can make some kind of magical voice synthesizing program that allows a voice actor to say three or for words and then uses that to artificially construct everything else based on what it picks up, it's not happening.



Also, I really need to lrn 2 cmputar so that I can invent something like that and get paid billions of zillions of dollars.

HAHAHA! Are you ****g insane? Do you realize how big of a "patch" that would be or how much money it would cost? Do you people honestly think VAs are cheap? Or that its at all easy to get them into a studio to record lines? Or that they could get away with the one voice per gender crap they pulled with Mass Effect?

I'm actually happy with no voice... I've played games where I thought the pc voice acting was appropriate, but I've also played games where I thought... "Who the hell is that, I don't want to sound like that.." In Mass effect you were Shepard, and Shepard sounds a particular way. In Dragon Age there are 2 sexes, and 3 different races... Not only that, but I'd certainly hope my husky human berserker spoke differently than my Oh so Wise mage.



Given the circumstances, if you're going to allow the Player to create his own character.. I think no voice is better than the wrong voice.

Do you really want your character saying the exact same dialouge line you've just read and picked? that would get very old and very fast.

I'm pretty neutral about it. I'm sure bioware had thought about it. They only worked on this game for 4 1/2 years...

also go buy the game..support bioware..even if it's EA's **** now..Biowares one of the few companies left that actually take their time and don't **** out games like they ate a bad pizza. and call it finished.
