      I agree, we should only have one voice for all sims of all ages and all gender configurations.

      Back in my day we had one voice for each gender.

      Yeah, it does get annoying after a while especially since I only use like the same 2 voices. LOL. But at least we can change the pitch so that's nice.

      What if we just had all of the voices as text-to-speech robots

      Maybe try differing pitches. I think with the pitch slider, there are hundreds or more different voices. I usually use the same 2 types from the 6, so i guess i am not tired of them.

      sims speaking in general just annoys me after a while tbh, i can't play without listening to something else in the background simultaneously.

      i've exhausted all of them, in varying pitches. perhaps i just have too many sims.

      They could bump it to 8 or 10 or 12 voices....doesn't matter, when the game is played for countless hours, they'd all eventually get stale before long....if they had 100 different voices, that would be a different story.

      That would take them getting in a bunch of people to re-record lines over and over, with about a hundred different variations.

      That's a lot of time and money they probably don't want to spare for something most people don't care about. I agree with that, tbh.

      I would love to have actual accents! <3 But Im afraid that is a level of detail we may never experience.

      Whats really annoying is how few aspirations we have and how we hardly ever get new ones or new traits.

      And how little traits affect our sims behavior. We need more interesting sims.

      If I heard correctly we're actually getting two aspirations in the next Game Pack. Not sure if there are new traits though.

      I'm not tired of them. I do find some pitches more pleasant and some of the choices too... If I create a character like from a movie or tv show I try to match their voice tones as well as I can. When I download from the gallery I always check it too I love it when they do a good job matching a voice.

      After making a lot of Sims, the same 6 voices do get "bland" after awhile, even when changing pitches. It's like I already heard that voice and pitch style before, just some more prevalent then others.

      I can see where it can get dull, but as a few others have said we came from one voice to six and as others had said, I would whether have more traits, since imo, the traits make the sims more than their voices do.

      traits are useless imo. the existing ones need to be overhauled before we get any more. in their current state all of my sims act the same, some of them are just tense more frequently lol.

      It would be awesome if voices could be opened up for Modding. I don't know if it is right now, but that would be a great way to get more voices.

      I also agree with traits being useless. Regardless of the type of Traits I give a Sim, Happiness ALWAYS overrides everything. Thank God for some modded traits that don't allow this to happen.

      I wonder if we could get voices with different personalities to them. Right now the default tone is 'happy' for all the voices. What if I want to play a mobster or a villain? We would need a low down serious down to earth voice. And it would stay that way even when happy.

      Or maybe they could even give us voices with accents to them.
      Like a surfer dude would be all mellow and who always end his sentences with 'dude' and whatnot.

      I agree. I want some deeper voices for the men.

      My biggest pet peeve about the voices is the West Coast accents that dominate a few of the options... :expressionless:
