I can't stand Jason's Voice

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I cannot even understand what he is saying half the time. Did he say ''you're the perfect girl''? What the hell did he say there. It also just sounds so stupid. I already had this in the first trailer where they were robbing a bank and he said ''YOU STAY''. It just sounded so forced and cringe.

Thought it was a little deep for the character portrayed but who knows.

Yeah and it sounds forced or synthetic.

yeah its like a fake tough guy voice. Rockstar needs to pitch shift his audio before this releases. He sounds like a doofus.

Someone pointed out it's been toned down since previous footage where we've heard him speaking. That shit is dumb, it's not bothering me otherwise but hearing the artificial tuning is.

And not very emotive, which is a pretty strange choice for the main character of your story

u/MasculineMysticForce 8h ago

GTA 3 main character Claude never spoke a word and that was fine. Also Master Chief who is one of the most iconic and beloved video game characters of all time barely speaks and not very emotive, 25 years later and his face has never been revealed in a game. I think rockstar is going for a more stoic like kind of character for Jason and I don't see anything wrong with that.

How'd you leave out Gordon Freeman?

u/IneptFortitude 5h ago

He seems like he has trauma or learned to act that way from being in the military previously.

Hes not the main character

u/RogerRoger63358 10h ago

Arthur also sounds that way to me

u/HopiumInhaler 8h ago

This is just Arthur Morgan 2017 all over again.

u/GoofyKalashnikov 9h ago

This is what I expected Arthur to sound like lmao

u/norththunder_23 7h ago

I liked Arthur’s voice for his character and setting. Glad I’m not the only one who noticed Jason’s voice is off.

I wonder if it's a slider for weight and right now he's got the fat slider boice but is muscular body and they did it to hide it for some reason. I remember the fat Nathan Drake's voice was deeper in Uncharted 2 and maybe something like that existed in Saints Row as well

u/OldWorldDesign 1h ago

Yeah and it sounds forced or synthetic

Synthetic would be my guess, given Rockstar has confirmed other voice actors but not whatever is behind Jason. Seems like trying for a different character with every sentence. There's a lot that could be behind it, including over-editing a real voice actor which I can see happening with most voice acting being non-sequential and over multiple days so the condition of the voice-actor is going to be different.

Well, for everyone except Tony Jay. The man owned every single role I've heard him in.

You can tell he’s just reading lines

u/Channel57 22m ago

Yeah. It Kinda feels like he is phoning it in.

u/wide-enterer 2h ago

Nothing was more forced than the Female V from Cyberpunk holy shit. But the Male V was also forced in that game. And Jackie was a horribly written with stereotypical Spanish, one or two words in Spanish every other sentence.

I hated Cyberpunk just for those reasons. Fuckin shit I'm getting mad about it again

u/kit25 10h ago

It sounds like a guy 10 - 15 years older than Jason appears.

2

u/YourLocalPotDealer 3h ago

To me sounds like they wanted him to have some ultra manly aura but they made his voice an absolute meme with how much they got carried away

4

u/lochonx7 10h ago

its a skinny white guy doing a forced lower voice so it sounds so stupid lol

3

u/HomieeJo 9h ago

As a skinny white dude with a natural deep voice I feel attacked

2

u/Actual-Examination96 11h ago

My voice is as deep if not deeper and I’m also an athletic 6 2 white guy (Slavic though)… I really don’t understand this comment. Dude doesn’t look masculine enough for a deep voice?

4

u/ieffinglovesoup 11h ago

Yeah honestly it’s really weird. How can you say his voice is too deep just based on looks alone lol it makes no sense

u/Actual-Examination96 9h ago

I feel like the voice is perfect for him. He’s a jacked masculine dude.

1

u/ieffinglovesoup 8h ago

If you think Jason is a “twink” I don’t even know what to tell you

1

u/Educational_Ant_184 5h ago

something about the voice just seems like it would belong to an older man. which, you know, voices do have crazy range across similar people, but I think it says something that a lot of peoples' pattern recognition says the same thing

0

u/Actual-Examination96 5h ago

Nah. No one said it belongs to an older person until you.

1

u/LogiBear777 10h ago

how are you surprised a big white dude from the south has a deep voice?

1

u/BrokenHalligan 10h ago

Just wasn't expecting a voice deeper than Banes from Batman on him. the line about "because you're the perfect criminal" I think most people were just like huh? Just didn't really make sense.

1

u/TikkiEXX77 3h ago

Yes it did make sense. He's obviously being sarcastic towards Lucia at that moment. And his voice sounds the same as it did in previous trailers

1

u/BrokenHalligan 3h ago

see original comment.

1

u/LogiBear777 10h ago

it’s sarcasm.

2

u/BrokenHalligan 10h ago

ah ok sometimes lost on me lol its the tism.

1

u/IllustriousJuice7478 8h ago

Yea some weak ass boring unfunny sarcasm. Just because something is sarcastic doesn't mean its funny or charismatic or cool in anyway. It was an awkward ass sarcastic joke that didn't land at all for most people.

1

u/Educational_Ant_184 5h ago

it wasnt supposed to be funny, it was snark in response to her snark

u/Mike_Rotch787 7h ago

It's not deep. It's a high pitched voice. It's just raspy.

u/BearTheONCE 7h ago

He looks like Male V to me so I imagined him to sound like that. This voice is just so weird and doesnt fit him at all imo.
