It seems like she mumbles every other word. Does she get better later on?

She has a pretty distinctive lisp going on. I'm playing with subtitles on so it doesn't bother me that much.

I find Nix to be even more difficult to understand, so I need the subtitles.

She got better after she got her powers

Do what I do and just imagine them in their underwear...makes understanding them that much less important.

<norm>That's racist.</norm>

When you did the good thing at the beginning of the game and she was talking about the militia and how you didn't murder a village to kill them that was the funniest piece of voice acting in the game.

I never had a single problem understanding what she said... in fact I'm totally perplexed by the fact that anyone did. Her speech never struck me as being unclear at all.

I put subtitles on.

@SethPhotopoulos: Holy shit is that real? I never noticed it playing through but fuck it sounds like she is drowning or something.

People with lisps should not be VA's. The sound in general is kind of bad, probably because the credits list literally two sound guys.
 
That said, I liked their approach to VA in general in this game. People mumble sometimes! It takes me out of the game when lines of dialogue are too sterile and exact.

Her voice is indeed interesting...

This really.

Completely agree, 100%. Same with Nix, Zeke, Cole or anyone else.

I've never played this game, but hearing the way Cole speaks makes me want to play the game on mute.

Huh, I never had any problem understanding her. Now that you mention it though, I do notice she does tend to mumble some words.

She has a bad cold. It's foreshadowing.

She sounds like she's holding her tongue while she talks.  
 
Why the fuck was she hired?

same here, i noticed the lisp but haven't had any trouble understanding what she is say.

I actually like her voice.

Heyo!

I must be missing something. She sounds totally fine to me.

I liked her voice for the most part and didn't have any problems understanding her. I'm kind of used to people mumbling/lisping though.

She does mumble but I can still understand what everyone in the game says.

I played it in the latin-american version and luckly she is pretty clear while speaking, I changed it for a while to english and she really seems like she haves a severe constipation in her nose...

*Snicker* Oh Man, that is just...wow whoever was listening in on that session must have had a good laugh to themselves.

@Rahf: Yeah, but I think the point is that it feels strange when no one EVER slips up, mumbles, fumbles, or jumbles their language in games except in choreographed, usually for humor, situations. Some people are just hard as fuck to understand. GTA IV anyone?

Her lisp comes out every now and then but not to the point where I can't understand her or find it particularly annoying.

Nix, however, is terrible. Would it really have been that hard to find someone from Louisiana/N.O. to provide maybe even a tiny hint of a realistic accent? It's not even just the actress though, her lines themselves are often lame as hell.

She's a bit of a mumbler, but as for finding her difficult to understand... I had no trouble whatsoever. She is clear enough in what she is saying, as are all the characters.

Thwamp

YOU MOTHERFUCKING RACIST.

WELL HERES ONE FOR THE WHITE PEOPLE

i thought Cole's lisp was even more obvious.

sounds like that Tor Torson guy from gamespot.

I iked her voice.  I just wish that there was more with, she seemed to pop up only here and there to help in side missions.  It woulda been cool to be able to play as her or Nix as an unlockable or something!

You no hear good.

I had no issues understanding anyone in this game, and English isn't even my first language. I actually thought the VA for Kuo did a pretty great job - her delivery felt realistic and natural.

@Hellstrom said:

I have no problems understanding Kuo or Nix :/

I did use subtitles though.

i have no problem understanding her, nix on the other hand i do not believe is actually speaking words of any language

I understood everybody. I mean this sincerly, how is the OP's hearing?Maybe hearing impairement at cirtain tone levels?

Wow

Not only did I not have a problem hearing anything she said, upon viewing that clip I cannot for the life of me remember her ever sounding that bad.

I never had trouble understanding Kuo or any of the other characters but then again I play with subtitles on so I can read and listen.
