    I did two full playthroughs plus a lot of restarts mid-way to try different endings or different side things. The only voice I can clearly hear in my head is the mage, whose name I can’t even remember. I can’t even remember what my own character’s voice sounded like (the vampire).

      Tim Downey is Gales’ voice actor (the mage), he was also the only one to use his real voice for the role. Astarion’s voice acting (the vampire) is very memorable as well (by Neil Newbon), but if you play as any of the characters you barely hear them, or so I’ve heard.(haven’t done it myself)

          Maybe playing as an origin character would require a whole buch of “internal dialoge” that added too much extra work, so they scrapped it. Its indeed a shame 'cause you are right, I’d like to experience more of said character. So in the end it’s counter intuitive. ( I can’t imagine a mute Astarion during the Cazador scene! Wtf)

              Oh nooo it’s bad.But it also kinda lets you "roleplay"the character so there’s that … I was considering a Karlach origin run but maybe not. :/ pointless .
