I prefer Sumalee Montano's voice over Alix Wilton Regan's voice.

Sumalee's voice sounds more exotic and more grown up whereas Alix's voice sounds like a typical British female.


I can see where you're coming from. I think I've always just chosen what seemed to fit my characters appearance more . Though this is only the second time I've used Sumalee's voice (First was my dwarf) and I really just love hearing her talk -sigh-

Just curious (also hello my dear Solasmancers, I have arisen from the abyss again) any Lavellans here who use Sumalee's voice over Alix's? Love them both, and I'm currently playing a warrior Lavellan with Sumalee's voice and I love it ^^

Going down the road of angst with Solas of course

 

I do. I tried the British voice first and had to remake before I even finished the prologue, it was bothering me so much. It's not that she's bad, she just sounded like a breathy, delicate noblewoman to me. Good for my prim and proper Trevelyan. Bad for my rough-and-tumble Dalish scrapper.

I use both. They're both wonderful but I prefer Alix's voice. I think it's so adorable. I thought so when Samantha Traynor was complimenting Edi's voice in ME3.  :lol:

I am pretty typical in using Sumalee's voice for dwarves and qunari and Alix's for humans and elves. If I ever get around to playing male characters, I think I would prefer the British voice there too. I love British accents...  :wub:

What she said. :D

 

I use Alix's voice for my humans and elves and Sumalee's for my Quinari.  I haven't made a dwarf yet.  I will probably also use the British voice for my male elf when ever I get around to making him.

Ahh! I see. Yeah, I so far am really liking the way my warrior looks with Sumalee's voice. I'll take a picture of my Amirani Lavellan later for you all to see ^^

I just figured Alix was more popular among Lavellan at least so I was curiousb

I really tried to like Sumalee's voice, but in the end I just find her delivery too wooden, and it makes me sad.

She has a really pleasant timbre to her voice, though. I've got her on my qunari, but I haven't gotten too far with her yet. I'm hoping I'll just pick the right dialogue to get a generally nice experience. lol

Oh definitely, she does beautifully on some of her lines. Some of the angrier ones though, make me wince.

I've done the same,  have recent warrior Lavellan and really think Sumalee's voice suits her.  I'm kind of stuck on where she's going to go romantically though,  gravitating a bit toward Blackwall.  I think if she ends up with Solas she'll be out for his blood come Trespasser... just don't know what to do  :wacko:

 

I do. I tried the British voice first and had to remake before I even finished the prologue, it was bothering me so much. It's not that she's bad, she just sounded like a breathy, delicate noblewoman to me. Good for my prim and proper Trevelyan. Bad for my rough-and-tumble Dalish scrapper.

 

I like Alix's voice but I do agree that it doesn't really fit the a Dalish.  If only there could have been an Irish or Welsh voice for Lavellan's that would have been amazing.

I used Sumalee for my Adaar, but to me, Alix's voice and delivery sounds like she's always just kind of privately amused by something. This fit my Lavellan perfectly, because even if that wasn't already part of her personality, the idea that a Dalish savage is now in charge of a human organization would give her ironic giggle fits for life.

That might've been why the delivery doesn't bother me so much then. I played a pretty stoic, level-headed Lavellan. I don't think I used the angry option once (Outside of a single instance in Trespasser.) Sumalee just had a franker delivery to me, and that fit my Lavellan better.

 

I'm also a pretty bad judge of acting ability :|

Fair, she does well on that delivery. My Cadash was just very angry and vengeful, and so her delivery came across as awkward.

Yes, Alix is very droll, especially with a more sarcastic character, whereas I find Sumalee's voice kind of common and flat with her generic Midwestern US accent (which is where I'm from, too, though I'm from MO and she's from OH).

I prefer Alix's voice.  I loved her in ME3 and I think she does a great job in DAI.  Not perfect of course.  Sumalee has a good voice, just doesn't fit my inquisitors.  Not really a fan of the male British VA, he seems a little flat when emotion is called for.  Haven't tried the male American VA.

 

Also I was really amazed they went with two voices for each gender.

As for voices, I prefer Alix' voice for humans and elves and Sumalee's to me, works better for qunari and dwarves.

I have three Sumalee elves, and two Alix. Fitting a voice to both the visual and personality is what made me tilt in one direction or the other. I think both actors did a great job, and am glad they gave us choices. Totally with @wildannie though - wishing we had an Irish or Welsh option. ;)

It's from the Dragon Age Confessions Tumblr, so I'm pretty sure it's fair game for sharing wherever you like. ;)

I never knew this tumblr existed. It's bloody amazing, and I likely won't emerge from it for a week. :P

I just saw this exchange on Patrick Weekes' twitter:

 
‏@PatrickWeekes
I used Legos to demonstrate a plot point to @Mike_Laidlaw and @eplerjc, so I think those are work-related expenses now.
 
User
@patrickweekes @mike_laidlaw @eplerjc do you think they can expense out the Ferris Wheel if you can weave it into a game
 
Patrick Weekes ‏@PatrickWeekes 
@regeener @Mike_Laidlaw @eplerjc "I call it the FENRIS WHEEL now!"
 
User
@patrickweekes @mike_laidlaw @eplerjc Fenris isnt in DAI because he left Kirkwall to become a carny, CANON ACCEPTED
 
 
The thought of Fenris as a carny is very... interesting! Mind you, with his tattoos he does look the part!  :P
Also, this means that work is moving forward on DA4? I need something, anything! The wait is going to drive me crazy!
 
Edit* So I got the top page? ELVEN GLORY IT IS THEN!

Lol I love the idea of Fenris the Carny.
Would he clean up after people? Or preform his choreographed dance routine that he perfected when not following Hawke and brooding?
