Voice 5 sounds so exhausted, like he has absolutely hit his limit already and it's everything he can do to react. Somebody let that Tav take a nap, poor guy.
Seeing as that's the voice they used for the Dark Urge's intro speech, I think it's safe to assume that it's his canon voice, which would explain why the poor guy sounds so tired. : (
Can I still change my Tav's voice after playing for 30 hours? I feel the need to switch to voice 8 to properly reflect my... I mean her feelings for Karlach.
Out of all the voices Voice 1 was the best male voice for me. Especially the calls for Karlach and Wyll really hurt me. Tav V1 sounds absolutely desperate, flabbergasted even that he might lose them. The panic rising in his voice makes my heart ache. Voice 8 was a very good female voice for losing companions. But I think what won me over was especially her call her Karlach. That call especially like Karlach is just far enough away where Tav can’t reach her-can’t save her after promising she’d do everything she could to save her from Avernus only to be taken out by some villain.
Hearing all of these back to back, I had this horrible image of Tav coming back to camp after running an errand and finding everyone slaughtered. They drop whatever they're carrying and run from one corpse to another, desperately hoping to find some signs of life, thinking "I wasn't gone for that long! How did this happen?!" and casting Speak with Animals to try and get something out of Boo, the only survivor. Alternatively, I can see a bard telling a very short story about this ugly battle: "Once there was a bad adventurer. They were so bad that everyone died! The end."
When I heard my Tav scream for Karlach, I was sooo surprised Also the fact that we just started a relationship, made me think in this direction. To put it briefly, I was pleasantly surprised. I thought it happened because of relationship, because in Goblin Camp when we fought hobgoblin no one screamed no one's names when they were downed.
My Durge uses voice 4. She's a monk who tried repressing her thoughts and emotions in a failed attempt to gain control over herself. Anyways, these lines really fit someone who is finally shattering after a lifetime of unspeakable horror and repression. Edit: So I finished this playthrough a while ago and she was romancing Karlach. She respected her decisions to not return to hell. Anyways, 1:48 is leaving me the shattered one now.
Voice 8 my godsdamn BELOVED!!! Voice 3 is my favorite of the masc voices but voice 8 doesn't fuckin' MISS, absolute mvp, literally never get tired of it in my playthrough
As a Gale fan and user of voice 4, I'd say that it fits perfectly for character romancing Gale. It feels so broken and shocked when it comes to "Gale, no!"
I have voice 8 for my tav and I LOVE IT AGGHHHHHH. Whenever Karlach or Halsin are downed MY HEARTTTTT. Especially since I’m romancing Halsin and JDKEXUHEIS
I fell in love with voice 3 after picking it for my good guy-Durge on a whim (I had already used voice 5 for my first ever Tav). I love how voice 3 sounds like he's the heroic protagonist of some fantasy/80's sword and sorcery flick worrying over the safety of his beloved companions.
Voice 8 is fantastic!! S-tier voice acting, and it enriched my Tav with such personality that I would find myself investing a lot more into the roleplay aspects than I expected, even outside of cutscenes! I still like to explore for little secrets or sneak around just to hear the unique voicelines. Like, "Does this count as adventuring...?" Or "Survival is *all* that matters!!" 😁 I will definitely make a dnd character inspired by my Tav & always imagine them with this wonderful voice. Even though I can't replicate it with my own voice... 🤔
IMHO the best male voice for Tav was Voice 1 he sounded the most natural when expressing shock and fear especially when he screamed WYLL KARLACH he really sounded distraught at the thought of them dying the other male voices sounded exhausted or sounded like it was just another Tuesday of adventuring 😂 if they had only one male voice for Tav Voice 1 would’ve been the choice I’d have put in the game
The Tav in my first/main run uses Voice 7. Was fighting Raphael in Act 3 and Karlach - who I had built to be a tanky Wild Heart Barb (Bear Hart damage resist go brrrr) and was romancing in that run - actually went down for, I think, the first time ever. Hearing him scream out like that really added to the moment. Made it really easy to visualize the fear of Karlach dying there in the Hells she had worked so hard to escape from, the regret at being the one to bring her back - even though she had agreed to coming along, and the anger at Raphael for daring to hurt her. Lovely stuff. And I mean, yeah, used Hope’s Divine Intervention to get everybody healed up and revive her within a round, so ultimately low stakes, but still.
I love all the voices, Lynsey's (Voice 2) "All is well that ends... not as bad as it could have" is one of my favorite lines. But here I would say 1 and 8
Voice 7 was what I had on my durge and I definitely think he gave the best performance out of the masc voices. Voices 8 was for sure the best of the fem voices
You can just imagine this as the tragic final battle as your companions hold off and fall to the Absolutist horde to ensure you at least make it to the Netherbrain.
one of the aspects i love so much about this game is even though it’s all the same lines the actors perform it so differently!! especially noticeable when you see the difference between fem sounding guardian and male guardian
I lost my first character to the Xbox bug right as we were about to climb the netherbrain so I just coped it as a TPK that my Tav avoided by using their Chronomancy abilities (Saving and Reloading lol) to reset the timeline at the cost of becoming the Dark Urge. Hearing this feels like losing each of them one by one
2:29 why is it sound more like voice5 is disappointed to Halsin :L (maybe the whole voice 5 as I hear it again) Also my fav part is of course voice 4 :D My heart melted when she screamed Karlach's name
I heard the "Gale, no!" A lot
He IS a wizard, after all.
I heard it so much I almost don't remember ever hearing the others lol
Yea even my Tav Durge (a durge named Tav) said Gale no!
And that's usually when I have Karlach throw Gale's soon-to-be necrotic body over to the enemy with the highest HP.
he always dies from 1d4 damage
Voice 5 sounds so exhausted, like he has absolutely hit his limit already and it's everything he can do to react. Somebody let that Tav take a nap, poor guy.
I believe five is the canonical durge voice.
Because that's The Dark Urge, not Tav
my rancid blood whispers me: kill, kill, and kill again!
I like that he actually just sounds annoyed with Halsin, rather than emotional hahaha
Seeing as that's the voice they used for the Dark Urge's intro speech, I think it's safe to assume that it's his canon voice, which would explain why the poor guy sounds so tired. : (
OK BUT THE GUT-WRENCHING SCREAM VOICE 8 LEFT FOR KARLACH ?? SIS WAS IN SHAMBLES
I mean do blame her?
That's the voice I chose for my first Tav. Even more fitting because she's romancing Karlach XD
it's canon to me now, tav with voice 8 and karlach are besties. SAVE HER GIRL SAVE THAT TIEFLING
How Voice 8 screams KARLACH made me shiver
How everyone feels about Karlach. Your one job was to protect her at all costs...
i was like "okay it can't be that bad." i got to voice 8 and was just as you said, shivers.
I always have to use voice 8 if I'm romancing Karlach because of that. I'd react the same if the love of my life just died/almost died
Can I still change my Tav's voice after playing for 30 hours? I feel the need to switch to voice 8 to properly reflect my... I mean her feelings for Karlach.
Out of all the voices Voice 1 was the best male voice for me. Especially the calls for Karlach and Wyll really hurt me. Tav V1 sounds absolutely desperate, flabbergasted even that he might lose them. The panic rising in his voice makes my heart ache.

That call especially like Karlach is just far enough away where Tav can’t reach her-can’t save her after promising she’d do everything she could to save her from Avernus only to be taken out by some villain.
Voice 7 is also good for the same reason
Voice 8 is what I used for my dark urge and it fit so well. And don't quote me but I think dark urge has unique lines.
@@catandrobbyfloresHe has idle voicelines when you pick him and when it's his turn in combat
@@Hoontermeow I meant ALL dark urges not just default
@@catandrobbyflores that's what I meant, they all do
I love voice 8 so much. She understood the assignment
all the common lines have so much more character with voice 8
💯
voice 8 was the first one i ever used for my first playthrough and it remains my absolute favorite
Honestly, it's my go to femdurge voice, look up the orin revelation scene with voice 8, absolutely amazing
The best one in my opinion
Hearing all of these back to back, I had this horrible image of Tav coming back to camp after running an errand and finding everyone slaughtered. They drop whatever they're carrying and run from one corpse to another, desperately hoping to find some signs of life, thinking "I wasn't gone for that long! How did this happen?!" and casting Speak with Animals to try and get something out of Boo, the only survivor.
Alternatively, I can see a bard telling a very short story about this ugly battle: "Once there was a bad adventurer. They were so bad that everyone died! The end."
Voice 1 is the shonen protagonist of these honestly. Voice 4 is like the protag but after they've been broken irreparably
THAT IS EXACTLY IT
The Minsc ones having us swear to save him to his hamster really is something lol i love that sm 😂
Minsc and Boo are definetely the best companions imo
Voice 7 for Karlach sounds more like she knocked over and smashed his favourite antique vase or something
this is genuinely so funny 😭
Thats what i kinda though too. He sounds disapointed in her 😅
When I heard my Tav scream for Karlach, I was sooo surprised
Also the fact that we just started a relationship, made me think in this direction. To put it briefly, I was pleasantly surprised.
I thought it happened because of relationship, because in Goblin Camp when we fought hobgoblin no one screamed no one's names when they were downed.
Yup, I think you have to have a positive relationship with them. Doesn't have to be romantic though.
@@20storiesunderCorrect
4:07 whoever did voice 8 put their whole heart and soul into those screams man, literal chills
Tina Barnes did a great job as Tav 8
Don't forget about Wyll! She did a fantastic job shouting her grief in the microphone for the two coolest, hottest, war-buddies of BG3.
#8 crying out for Karlach is so heart-breaking, easily my favourite voice.
Voice 4 and 8 gave me chills. voice 1 was really well done as well but I didn't get chills.
It's just so tired and weary.
voice 4 have most emotion out of femvoice imo
Lmao the Halsin line at the start gave me big Snake? SNAKE! vibes
Glad I'm not the only one who noticed
Voice 7 and 8 went absolutely nuts, probably the best voices in the game imo
All of voices 1, 4, and 7, and when voice 8 screamed for Karlach, Wyll, and Halsin made me fight not to cry. 😭😭😭
My Durge uses voice 4. She's a monk who tried repressing her thoughts and emotions in a failed attempt to gain control over herself. Anyways, these lines really fit someone who is finally shattering after a lifetime of unspeakable horror and repression.
Edit: So I finished this playthrough a while ago and she was romancing Karlach. She respected her decisions to not return to hell. Anyways, 1:48 is leaving me the shattered one now.
I use voice 4 for my ranger rn
Voice 8 my godsdamn BELOVED!!! Voice 3 is my favorite of the masc voices but voice 8 doesn't fuckin' MISS, absolute mvp, literally never get tired of it in my playthrough

This probably has been said a million times but god DAMN these actors go so hard
BY THE GODS NOT LAE'ZEL! in voice 4 is so familiar to me by now because fucking lae'zel is always the first one to go down.
Picking my voice for my Karlach-loving Tav purely based on which one of these sounds most devastated over her. Its 6 definitely 6
Nah 8 is the Karlach lover for sure
Voice 1 and Voice 8 have given me trauma
giving my tav voice 8 and having her romance karlach is the best decision thanks to this, i get to cry a lot now
Man Voice 8 goes HARDDDDDD
I was kinda disappointed that there weren't any really deep voices for my Half-orc but I can't imagine my Tav without voice7. Its so good
Idk why i like voice 3, its kinda cool
At first I thought it said "turned down by companions." Our poor Tav, getting no relief...
I've heard voice 8 Karlach a few times and it always sounds so good. Especially with a romanced path.
I fell in love with voice 3 after picking it for my good guy-Durge on a whim (I had already used voice 5 for my first ever Tav). I love how voice 3 sounds like he's the heroic protagonist of some fantasy/80's sword and sorcery flick worrying over the safety of his beloved companions.
Voice 3 hurts my soul weirdly enough.. it’s the shaky breathing he has in some of the lines.
Great work, as always!! ♥️ My favorites are number 1 and number 8. They sound the most passionate and desperate.
It makes me laugh so much that they all have these emotional lines, the for Wyll it’s literally just “WYLL”
Voices 1,4,5, and 8 are spot on xD
Voice 8 is miles ahead of all the other ones. Only one that really gave me the sense of someone watching their friend or loved one die.
1:40 is imprinted into my brain, i've heard it far too many times lol
Would you consider doing the Durge "edgy" voice lines?
Tav 8 will be always my favorite Tav voice 🥹
man the players voice actor's are really underrated
Voice 8 is fantastic!! S-tier voice acting, and it enriched my Tav with such personality that I would find myself investing a lot more into the roleplay aspects than I expected, even outside of cutscenes! I still like to explore for little secrets or sneak around just to hear the unique voicelines. Like, "Does this count as adventuring...?" Or "Survival is *all* that matters!!" 😁
I will definitely make a dnd character inspired by my Tav & always imagine them with this wonderful voice. Even though I can't replicate it with my own voice... 🤔
00:15 No, no KARLACH!
Great compilation! In future, would you consider doing a compilation of the characters casting spells? Love to hear all the spell casting dialogue. 😊
IMHO the best male voice for Tav was Voice 1 he sounded the most natural when expressing shock and fear especially when he screamed WYLL KARLACH he really sounded distraught at the thought of them dying the other male voices sounded exhausted or sounded like it was just another Tuesday of adventuring 😂 if they had only one male voice for Tav Voice 1 would’ve been the choice I’d have put in the game

I always play with voice 7 and hearing that "GALE, NO" always makes my heart break a bit.
Voice 8… rent was DUE
I just love voice 7 so much, the karlach line hits
Voice 5 is lovely for a more sarcastic Tav. That VA is thoroughly underappreciated.
Voice 3 enjoyer here.
These are all SO good, so emotive! Talk about goosebumps
"Halsin? HALSIN!!!" kind of reminds me of "Snake? SNAAAAAAAKE!!!"
Ngl I played a Voice 7 Barbarian recently and the combination of him shouting out for Karlach and immediately Raging afterwards goes hard asf
I love all the voices, Lynsey's (Voice 2) "All is well that ends... not as bad as it could have" is one of my favorite lines. But here I would say 1 and 8
Tav 8 can only ever romance Karlach I don't make the rules
Voice 7 was what I had on my durge and I definitely think he gave the best performance out of the masc voices. Voices 8 was for sure the best of the fem voices
picked voice 8 for my first ever tav who romanced karlach. the first time karlach got downed in combat was a very memorable one.
I will, one of my Tav has voice 8 and the way she screams "Halsin? Halsin!" Always hurts my heart a bit
You can just imagine this as the tragic final battle as your companions hold off and fall to the Absolutist horde to ensure you at least make it to the Netherbrain.
voice 1 is superior
one of the aspects i love so much about this game is even though it’s all the same lines the actors perform it so differently!! especially noticeable when you see the difference between fem sounding guardian and male guardian
Hearing most of these is completely new because I have a bad habit of drawing out fights because I just refuse to let anyone in my party get downed.
No matter what voice, hearing "By the gods, not Lae'zel!" always sounds a bit comedic to me for some reason lmao
Voice 4 sounds like she's crying, which makes this even sadder.
"By the gods, not Lae'zel"
I heard that one alot.
Tho I must say i was suprised first time I heard my tav shout out when the companions got downed
I lost my first character to the Xbox bug right as we were about to climb the netherbrain so I just coped it as a TPK that my Tav avoided by using their Chronomancy abilities (Saving and Reloading lol) to reset the timeline at the cost of becoming the Dark Urge. Hearing this feels like losing each of them one by one
the way voice 4 Tav screams Shadowheart is really sad and genuine tbh
Voice 7 for male half orcs is just so good. Using it for my current lad.
Voice 5 is Durges main voice, isn't it?
Damn i love voice 2 as it sounds similar to eunie from XBC3, but voice 1 and 8 got that extra pizzaz. Astounding work.
I've been looking everywhere for this thank you!
Voice 1, 4, 5 and 8 were the best. My favorite is voice 1 soo much emotion
For me personally, the 5th voice is the best,just the best voice for the male Tav and Dark Urge.
"Jaheira - I'll save you, I swear!"
I am in agony
Is it me, or 7 screams at Karlach like he is mad at her?
exactly what i thiught but when you think of it in a way he also sounds more so angry that Karlach was killed rather at her.
1 was my original Tav, but I’m planning on having each voice make an appearance for different runs
Voice 4 is my favorite. Also, why does it seem Tav cares most for Jaheira? Like she’s the only one you say “I’ll save you, I swear!”
Voice 4>>>
Voice 1 sounds like hes about to do cpr
I chose voice 4 for my Tav
All of these are killing me, good gods.
Would love a comp of all the origin characters reacting to companions going down. Cause Karlach has some sadly funny lines
By the gods not Lae'zel I have heard this line so many times
Calm down tav, you got like 12 revify scrolls
i just got the voice 8 cry of "WYLL" and i was just horrified :')
i never played with a voice 8 but now i think i need to 😂😮
2:29 why is it sound more like voice5 is disappointed to Halsin :L (maybe the whole voice 5 as I hear it again)
Also my fav part is of course voice 4 :D My heart melted when she screamed Karlach's name
Would be super cool if we got all voices when Orin imitates them, end Durge run!
Thank you for your hard work! ❤
I LOVE voice 8 so much
1 5 and 7 are my favorites
Okay but nobody is talking about voice 7?!?? He did so well and it felt like they were actually reacting to someone dying l
Honestly i know its normal to die in a combat but i always have the same reaction whenever they are downed.
Idk about yall but voice 3 sounds like hea really stressin (or maybe is because my tav has it and ive grown fond of it)
voice 7 and 8 are the best in my personal opinion
PERSONA- wait wrong game
Now to do companions reacting to each other. (They have unique lines for Origins)
You can kinda tell which companions are favored by which vas
