Amelia Tyler did an awesome job on the BG3 narration.
I can't wait to see what she will work on next.

TBH, the VA in BG3 has been exceptional overall. I don't think I've encountered anything that hasn't hooked/sold me on the part!

The only bad thing notice is that the druids lines were clearly recorded across multiple sessions, and you can hear the difference in recording quality line to line.

Besides that, no complaints.

And having said that, sometimes the pause between lines isn't long enough. Clearly lines have been edited/programmed together without thought of the flow of the actual dialog.
