    Jennifer Hale will ALWAYS be Femshep to me... every time I hear her voice, I can't help but think about Mass Effect.

    I worked on an animation show on which she voiced a character, I had a whole bank of little grunts/laughs/snippets of her to edit here and there, about the time Mass Effect 3 released.... It was my own little FemShep extension I could play with ahah :D

      I realize my post may come off as a greesy man laughing in his basement.
      It's not.
      I just meant that as "yaaaay, I got bits of FemShep to play with".
      .... you know what there's no good way to phrase this without it sounding bizarre.
      It was nice. There.

    When Ashe was introduced to OW, I was like "that voice is SO familiar, who is it?" And I was SO EXCITED to find femshep made it into another amazing game. She has to much passion and enthusiasm and she's always so fun to listen to! Hope to hear her more!

    I've played all the Mass Effect games, and as a woman i played as "Fem Shep" and chose Kaiden as my love interest all the way through the collection ❤❤. I have to say it's the best voice acting I've heard in a game to date. Just tell Bioware to get fem shep to sit walk and dance like a female😂😂. Just to add a little more, the shore leave DLC was hilariously funny I just loved the one liners. Jennifer Hale you are top drawer thank you so much for giving us women a vooce👌👌🤗🤗 xx

    I switched from male to female voice in ME2 since the female one was pretty good, emotion wise. I looked up the VA and found she had other roles, so I wanted to support Western voice acting, to make it become as great as Japanese voice acting.

      @mrshmuga9 4 года назад +2

      Mona Chan Those podcasts were probably setup for that before, or at least have fewer members where they could justify it. I don’t think Game Informer is going to deck out all of their employees homes with quality cameras and mics just on the off chance they might be on video (it’s not going to be consistent). Plus, the interviewee isn’t going to have that kind of setup, nor is GI going to pay that for every interviewee. They likely aren’t going to be around in the next few years (tons of cuts, big names leaving on their own) so they’re not going to spend money where it isn’t necessary. I’m pretty sure IGN didn’t even do that for their E3 dev interviews. Maybe the hosts because there were only 3 but that’s it.
