Sounds like she's got a good approach to voicing the Inquisitor, though naturally some people will be upset. Hope we get profiles like this on each of the Inquisitor's V As, it might help picking a voice in advance.

Really? I don't think I've seen a single person upset with Alix as the Inquisitor.

[up]Not the choice, her choice of portrayal; some people like their main V As to be as inflectionless as possible. By going for an overall "tone" (commanding, authoritative, etc), some people will be annoyed. But since this is the Internet, and that was a given anyway, I'm not too put out.

I have never had an opinion on Bioware's PC voice acting. Don't see a need to.

That Qunari Inquisitor in the interview looked really good.

I just wouldn't like the Warden-face on the Inquisitor. Gods alive, that was scary. Bethesda-face isn't much better, but at least you don't have to see your face in conversations in Bethesda games.

I think we can finally get away from the Bioware face thanks to the engine change.

Origins players may remember a frozen expression on the faces of the Warden's face while everyone else emoted to the limits of the Infinity engine. Shepard in 1 has it too, though Hawke and reborn Shepard are much more alive.

You mean everyone had a single, unchanging character portrait and a model that you couldn't make out any real details on? Man, how low were your settings?

No. He is talking about in cutscenes and dialog windows your character stands there like they have some form of mental condition that causes them to stare off at nothing, dead to the world.

It was really fucking weird, lol

Yet people like female Shepard's voice more than her male counterpart.

[up][up]He was talking about character portraits in games like Baldur's Gate.

Also, pretty sure Dragon Age didn't use the Infinity Engine.

I'm really liking these VA interviews. Alix Wilton Reagan is kind of gorgeous all around isn't she? I think she'll make a great Inquisitor, or at the very least an unoffensive one.

Just noticed in the gameplay demo from the other day, one of the segments has a Male-Quinari Mage. I didn't realize until I noticed he was wearing robes and IB can't wear those.

He looks pretty big.

I want to climb it...

I'm a critical person but I'm a nice guy when you get to know me. Now, I should be writing.

That joke did fly over my head. In fact it flew so high that I need a map to go find where it landed, lol.

Dragon Age did have low quality static character portraits, so... Yeah.

[up]We can romance the Iron Bull in the game. Also, those were actual quotes Isabela says in DA2.
