I like the AI voices But the fact that James McGuinn attempted to voice all the 9 mercenaries is equally as impressive, if not more. While janky at times, the new voices aren't very horrendous
Honestly these AI voiceovers of these quotes make them sound a lot better, because every single VSH quote sounded botched because they were voiced by the same person for all of the mercs
I feel like the AI performs best on Scout, Pyro, amd Demo. Medic's new VA sounds so perfectly crisp and I love it. I prefer Soldier and Heavys' VAs. The AIs do not do their characters any justice. I like Engi's VA better. Engineer's AI doesn't sound rugged enough- I'd know, because I'm an engi main. He needs that "rough southerner" vibe. Sniper's VA sounds good, but him being just an octave or two lower keeps throwing me off. I prefer Spy's AI- And honestly, that's mostly on the voice actor picked for Spy than any credit to the AI. It's just hard to just replace the classic voice of Spy, and the new VA just sounds too... I don't know, just pretentious somehow. His new voice lines don't sound like a chocolatey-smooth killer, he sounds like Citizen's cousin.
