[QUOTE="Oryan77, post: 5167888, member: 18701"] This depends on the group of people you're playing with. I've watched groups roleplaying with voices where nobody seemed to mind, and I've heard people say that they like to use voices. But I've also heard a lot of people complain about it. I am not a fan of voices at all. It usually comes off as very creepy and uncomfortable, and usually annoying. I probably wouldn't mind the DM doing a voice on occasion as long as it was insightful and not distracting. But when a player does it, man does it get annoying fast. It's also usually not very original (The dwarf with a Scottish accent? Or the Gnome with the high-pitch voice? Why must I suffer?). As a player, I personally don't think you need a voice in order to roleplay better. And having a speech impediment sounds interesting, but it can get boring fast, and annoying even faster. But if you & the rest of the players don't mind it, then use a voice. Obviously it works for some groups. But please, ask the other players first :lol: [/QUOTE]
