Ha, did anyone romance Diana Allers? Is it cringeworthy? Maybe I should try it this time around XD

Yeah Mordin, maybe he's a good actor, but it's not the same.

yeah, it's pretty bad! I really don't know much about Chobot, I have heard about her for the first time, when they announced the character Allers, so I went into the game unbiased. Great idea, bringing a reporter on board, but this is bad! Wong would have been much more fun!

And I am jealous, because Sam apparently chats more with her than with Shepard :(

And regarding Mordin: I think the new VA did a great job! The difference is barely noticeable and managed to make Mordin one of the best characters again. We cried so many tears! Awesome!

All of Mass Effect's voice acting is superb, and no, I don't have an undying hatred for Chobot. She's got a decent enough voice, but you can tell that she's not experienced with being an actress.

If I HAD to vote someone down, it'd be her, simply because she's up against some pretty epic veteran actors and actresses in this game.

Second would be Mordin. I loved his voice, but everytime I hear it, I'm simply reminded that he's no longer the same actor as he was in ME2, and while the new one is just as good, it feels wrong to cut out the old one just like that. Especially considering the superb job he did.

Yes, this! I mean WTF is this? We barely get any dialogue with Sam as it is and now 80% of it goes to Allers. Don't even get me started. Ugh. <_<

Oh, and FemShep. I don't care what anyone says, I think Hale is a super b*tch, and she does an awful job. My opinion of course, but I just... I can't stand her...

don't know why everyone bashes chobot all the time

her part is extremely minimal and is adequate and you don't even have to invite her onboard

Someone being a **** shouldn't effect their performance, though (and I have no idea where you got that from, but I don't really follow Hale).  Some of my favorite musicians and writers are huge jerks in real life.

That does not excuse a horrible performance.

I only did the first flirt option with her, because the second was right after she interviewed Shep about Rannoch, and I was like 'you know, now really isn't a good time, bah-bye'. I might get around to it though on another playthrough.

Chobot.
Possibly even the worst of the entire series.


Yep.

And this comes from a guy who doesn't mind Resident Evil 1 VA! :lol:

I was indifferent to Chobot's character as I didn't know who she was until numerous youtube videos popped up proclaiming that ME had gone all "Jersey Shore", but the one voice that grates on me is Jennifer Hale, I'm fine with her other voices (Bastila in KotOR for example) but something about her Female Shepard delivery really puts me off. I'm yet to actually do a femshep playthrough and I keep meaning to, but playing a male Shep since 2007 I get five minutes in and Hale just makes me quit the game.
Apologies to FemShep fans.

Not big on Chobot, but even she is tolerable.

I actually don't just infinitely prefer femshep over maleshep like many, but I thought the cut dialogue between her and Anderson at the end of the game was just a fantastic performance.  

Heavy, heavy spoilers obviously.

It felt so clumsy the first
time, I thought Shepard saying anything other than "let's keep it
professional" would be out of character.  Might be worth a try for the
laughs, though.

Are you kidding? Chobot. A wall has more personality and talent.

funny thing, I paly femshep mostly since 2008 because of Hale, or rather ME1 Meer.

The worst VA in ME3? Didn't get Chobot onboard, so can't comment on that issue. New Mordin is fine by me, and felt just like the old one most of the time.
I think I can't pick my least favorite, all the crew members are well voiced.

Oh, I know. The kid.

That's the problem. She doesn't.

What was your least favorite Voice actor in Mass Effect 3?
BioWare is known for it's voice acting, but i think they dropped the ball on Diana allers, myself.


The only problem with people Pooping on Jess Chobot as a voice actress is that, well, Jess isn't a voice actress. She's a gaming media personality and part-time gaming journalist. Her being in the game was a tongue 'n cheek idea thought up by the doctors (so she stated in a pod-cast sit down last month) so I think it was always the intention that her role not be taken all that seriously. I don't know what people were expecting, but knowing that she isn't an actress warned me in advance to just look at it like, "Hey, Chobot's in the game. Well, that's cool. Oh, she's fliriting with Shep. Ha, the dialogue's so bad it's funny."

Even Chobot mentions in the pod-cast that the voice acting wasn't done all that seriously, she did the whole thing in a few hours (BioWare's call, not hers) and that her delivery was always intended to be a bit over the top, especially in the "Love Scene." So...long story short, you can't call her the worst voice actor because voice acting is a genuine occupation/art and she's not a part of that group. She's just a cameo voice at best, like Buzz Aldrin's horrible "Grandpa, tell me about The Sheaprd..." scene. Cool idea, not to be taken too seriously.

Honestly, worst voice actor? Seth Green. I love him, and I love Joker who's lines *are* funny, but voice acting is just not his strong suit. Why do you think they removed him as the voice for the character he mo-capped in "Mars Needs Moms"? He just doesn't do well, especially with dramatic dialogue. He can do over the top funny, but anything even remotely emotionally engaging? No.
