Watched the footage another couple of times and the full voice acting not only seems to be a pointless addition, but actually quite detracting to the whole experience.
If you wanna listen to the voices then you have to stare at the almost static screen with a looped animation that has nothing to do with what is being told and described by the voices and that's frankly very jarring.

REALLY disappointed with how Cuno sounds now. Completely different voice and intonation. I mean "fuck does Cuno care" literally became an iconic day one meme and its already ruined. And of course 1, one (ONE!!!!!) monotones voice for completely different skills is 100% pure stupid decline. Is it going to be be the same voice for all of the 24 skills?? Damn the final cut is not even out yet and its already so underwhelming. Why did I have to watch that video?

Is it possible to silence the skills and keep the rest?

as far as I know there will also be a mode for that, but I'm too lazy to find a source.
Yeah, that was a shit idea. If you do it like this, the skill VO should be defaulted OFF. You're actively making the game worse ffs.

Agreed. I know it's an additional cost to hire more voice actors, but this approach is truly lacklustre. I was expecting the inner voices more diversified, like with the Ancient Reptilian Brain and Limbic System. I guess I'll just replay the game with the VO switched off.REALLY disappointed with how Cuno sounds now. Completely different voice and intonation.

I hate voice over in games. In vanilla game you for the first (and the last?) time heard Harry's voice in karaoke and that was a very powerful moment.
laptop guy has stats tho

Unfortunately (or is it intentional?) it's the same voice as for the ancient reptilian brain. So it was kinda ruined to me moment.

It does,tho i never argued that it is much. So i am still waiting mate. Why is not an RPG? What defines an RPG? Is your butthurt levels the core feature of being an RPG?

Listen asshole, Disco Elysium is THE defining RPG of this generation. Masterpieces such as this one appear once every 10-15 years and their very existence is a miracle in this sea of dogshit entertainment dogshit.
