    I was so surprised how weirdly cast male V was, he always sounded like someone doing a kinda cringy 1930’s mobster impression.

    Switched to female V, and it was night and day.

      I find female V is always overacting. Every time she says something whatever emotion it needs to be is at 110% so when that emotion needs to flip from line to line or even in the same line it’s like tonal whiplash.

      Never played male V so don’t know the comparison, but female Vs line delivery makes me cringe constantly.

      I’m playing Cyberpunk now for the first time but knew who the voice actress was for female V - Cherami Leigh. She always does a wonderful job and can communicate emotion eloquently in her work. Instantly picked her for my first playthrough.

      Here’s her characters in some of my favorite media:

      • Makoto Nijima, Persona 5
      • A2, NieR:Automata
      • Sonia, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
      • Asuna Yuuki, Sword Art Online
      • Sailor Venus in Sailor Moon Viz dub

      Make V’s voice actor sucks so much. It is the cringiest shit on earth. It’s remarkable compared to how organic Jackie sounds.
