I agree with that.Oh, you got me.
But no, I don't care that much about it, it's just jarring when you have silent NPCs from a mod in a game with full voice acting. Or a huge difference in the recording quality between the modded NPCs and the ones in the base game.
What about picking and choosing games you want to play?
Fair game. I was going to retort, but it's really just personal preference.
Yeah, it's basically the same number as Oblivion - roughly 2 per race (1 per gender) but they mix it up more so that it's less obvious the voices are repeating when you have a town full of mostly 1 race. Though the orcs all sound the same...
I followed the nord guy to the Riverwood, talked to his brother-in-law, bought some armor from the blacksmith and set out to explore the world before starting the main quest proper. The first quest I activated was to help some guy with cleansing his family tomb from undead and necromancers. Satisfied with this massive amount of exploration, I set out for Whiterun where I first ran into the fighter's guild being racist against some poor giant who only wanted to buy a carrot or some shit from the local farmer. One of the men was a man named Vilkas who told me I looked strong and suggested I go to their guild hall. Then I entered Whiterun and ran into a guy from one of the major families. We talked about a bard before I told him to fuck off. I found a priest of Talos who was most likely insane. Told him to fuck off as well. I entered the palace and met the jarl guy who told me to fuck off back to some old ruins north of Riverwood and retrieve some stone tablet or whatever. Alright, alright, chill, I said and headed to the stables to buy a horse from the stables guy because fuck walking and then it hit me like a bird shitting down my neck; all these men had the same voice actor. Then I quit the game and masturbated to a picture of pink hair girl from Gundam to calm down.
If you run into the same voice actor again and again within the first hour of the game then that's not better distribution. I can see this voice actor being partially exclusive to the "Whiterun area" and running into other voice actors dominating other exclusive areas. Maybe I'm wrong about this but fuck off I'm never wrong.
You cleraly haven't played oblivious then.
No, I just don't remember bad games. Talk to me in a year or so and I won't be able to tell you anything about Skyrim beyond the most basics. Skyrim have more voice actors but absolutely suck at distributing them properly. Riverwood for example have three characters all voiced by one guy and all children (two in Riverwood) are voiced by Todd Howard's sex-changed son-daughter thing. It's extra obvious since the actor is seemingly incapable of sounding different. It'd be okay if he had an awesome voice and could act reasonably well, like the imperial shopkeeper in Riverwood who also voices the breton shopkeeper in Whiterun, but he doesn't and he can't so eh.You cleraly haven't played oblivious then.
