Alvaren Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 just started getting the new Genesis Chronicles Explorer Notes on the Island and HLN-A has a new voice, I mean she doesn't even pronounce Helena the same. Is there any info on this? Is she the new voice for Gen 2 or just the notes for the Chronicles. The Trailer for part 2 seems to have the same actor.

Allanballan Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 There is a confirmed new voice actor for Helena in Genesis Part 2. Also Rockwell gets a voice! 🙃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fresiki Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 6 hours ago, Alvaren said: it seems not At the start of the new trailer, she says something like "Hang in...." "I'm...." (?) "Can't seem to find you..." In an obvious australian accent. It sounds distinct from the voice in the part 1 ending so that has to be the new HLN-A voiceover.

Alvaren Posted November 9, 2020 Author Share Posted November 9, 2020 ah I found a name finally seems HLN-A will be voiced by Madeleine Madden this time I wonder why the switch I quite liked Amber Lee Connors as HLN-A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuiDeus Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 i prefer this new voice SO MUCH MORE! The voice acting is on point and sounds way more mature and realistic, the old one had the emotion range of a 5 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amber was american. Madeleine australian accent is way more accurate to the character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alvaren Posted November 12, 2020 Author Share Posted November 12, 2020 while she is more accurate for the role she just doesn't seem to fit the HLN-A character, in part one she was cheerful, bouncing with joy and was always motivating us with a go get 'em attitude. So far in part 2 from what I've seen from the Genesis Chronicles 2 she just seems depressed and I've seen a lot of others say this in comments on Youtube. I also feel like she won't be able to handle the comedic moments that she had previously I just can't see her calling Rockwell a Drongo like in part one. She seems like a more serious voice actor but not taking this silly role seriously enough. She does seem like a lovely Lady though and I hope I'm completely wrong about all this and she actually lives up to the character that's been established. I can't wait to get more of the Chronicles to see more of her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarZilla Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Tbh I prefer Amber Lee Connors, she really sells a chirpy, lively little robot, and the fact that she has an American accent rather than Helena's Australian one is both amusing and solidifies that HLNA is different from Helena. Madeleine Madden makes HLNA sound more experienced and mature, and technically she is realistic to the character. I'm sure I'll get used to it.

anguelwyvern Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 i agree amber lee connors was better in my opinion, gave the little robot a kinda cute vibes to it, now it feels more like its just a robot, with no soul ... anyway to get the original voice back ? (like giving the players a choice between old to new voice ?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(like giving the players a choice between old to new voice ?) The only way to get the old voice back is to get the old voice actor to record all the new audio. So i'm afraid you'll just have to adjust to the new voice or play with no sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodoRara Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 It's like there was no coaching or anything when they rerecorded all the gen1 stuff, so now HLNA feels lobotomized. Emphasis is all wrong and it breaks the immersion, it feels like someone reading a script without understanding any of the context. Hate it. The end result is she now sounds like a psychopath who doesn't care if you live or die. I don't like the change one bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarZilla Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 8 months later ... I didn't get used to it. She has no depth, no personality. It literally sounds like she is reading from a script (Of course the voice actress is, but you know what I mean). This isn't promising for the TV series.
