I actually kind of admire this dev. My female voices when I DM (or just talk silly at my wife) are meh. They are all chain smokers and sound like the dmv lady from monsters Inc (I love her voice)
You know, I'm actually curious how those old Shakespearian actors did it. I always thought they used per-pubescent boys to play the women's roles. But I wonder if adult men ever did it, using voice practicing to achieve a female voice.

now they are casting men for women's roles? are we back in the 16th century again?
smh should have transitioned and opened the position for a trans woman voice actor!

At least the dev isn't using AI to do the voice. That's some dedication.

Lol I didn't think he was the actual voice, I just heard Lemmy doing some covers recently and reflected on his voice.

I looked it up:
https://monstersinc.fandom.com/wiki/Roz
She is voiced by Bob Peterson, the story supervisor of Monsters, Inc.

bit idea: eggy studio owner who sets unnecessarily strict DEI requirements which they use as a pretext for transitioning
"you don't understand! i don't want to transition, it's just company policy!"

Oh my god. Why has nobody done a version of 12th night where viola is an egg and Sebastian is a (literal) bro?

I read it as Dev using the lessons to learn how to do the job themselves. I'm not sure how hiring men instead of women will help cut cost.

well my assumption is that the dev is a man, and now hiring themselves for the job, instead of a woman :3
my joke was intended as a lighthearted joke, not a serious criticism

Most people talk about vocal training to get a fem voice, but I've only ever been tempted to do vocal training in order to unlock new goblin voices.
