I love this game but these flowers deserve bullying (hexbear.net)

The Marvel-style quips wouldn't be too bad if the voice actor didn't sound just like a normal dude. I mean, they're talking flowers! They should have cartoony voices! All other Mario characters have such unique and wacky voices, why do these flowers sound like they're from a Disney Channel movie?

Again, I'm just nitpicking for fun, I think the game is adorable and I'm having a lot of fun. Good game, highly recommended.

Also, Mario and Luigis new voice actor sounds great! His Wario voice isn't stanky enough IMO but eh, he might improve with time.

EDIT: OK FINE YOU'VE CONVINCED ME THAT THEY'RE CUTE

Just change the VO language to Japanese

[–] goatbeard@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

Yeah this is the move, makes it feel more organic

[–] Pluto@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah, I'm not angry at the new voice actor for Mario/Luigi/etc.

Besides, Charles Martinet deserves retirement.

Dude nailed Luigis dorky voice

Did they get Chris Pratt to voice the flowers too?

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago

Yes

They bring so much joy to children I really have to give critical support to the flower bros

It's extremely frustrating that these flowers aren't a boss in Pikmin 4

That one that falls into a pit screaming in that one level got a genuine chuckle out of me though.

I like them. I think it's funny that they just sound like a dude. Could have added more of a cool down for when they repeat their lines tho

[–] Wheaties@hexbear.net 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You can change the voice actor by changing the language in the settings (you can also straight up mute them there, too)

We've heard the new Wario voice? Where?

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 3 points 2 years ago

In the new Warioware

[–] spacecadet@hexbear.net 3 points 2 years ago

I agree I noticed it immediately and was bothered
