Gilrain voice line roulette is ruining me. How am I supposed to survive this man when he swings between angst, softness, and predatory growls in the space of five minutes??? 😭 Some examples from his voice lines.
•“The feelings in my heart vanished long ago with the moonlight.” → excuse me sir, that’s called emotional devastation.
•“Light begets shadow, but the shadow holds no allegiance.” → philosopher mode unlocked, thanks for the existential crisis.
•“Have you also come to enjoy the night’s serenity?” → suddenly soft and soothing, like he actually wants me to breathe for once.
•“So you’ve found me in the shadows. Try to keep up then.” → the growl. The huff. Goodbye.
•“What’s on your mind? Speak, and I will take care of it.” → oh, so now you’re protective too?
•And then that quiet plea: “…even if you were to descend into hell, would you still be willing to accompany me?” → WHY does he sound like he’s breaking when he says this??
I swear Gilrain has such an interesting voice work in the game. Baritone menace, sarcastic grump, and then out of nowhere: vulnerability so raw I can’t even deal. I will share more structured thoughts about him some other time. I’m just so smitten with him… I guess. 😩☺️
