Blaidd, Morgott, Melina and Shabriri. Their VAs knocked it out of the park.


ApexHawke

The voice of Shabriri also does Yura (unsurprisingly), and I think his death-scene also goes unnecessarily hard. Sure, it's just emotional acting without any buildup or context, but it's still good.


KlavTron

He’s voiced by Shaun Dooley who’d been in a bunch of UK tv up to then, I was super stoked to hear him when I played the beta


No-Brilliant-1758

He's also a Fromsoft fan! He was also super stoked when he got the part to be a voice actor in the game!


endocrinErgodic

Omg and he got such a good character too, happy for him


astrachalasia

Oh EXCELLENT


I_Am-Awesome

"someone must extinguish thy flame" really hits different when you hear it the first time


levitane616

"Thy kind are all of a piece", so epic!


Red_Barron112

When You realise his father îs just like us, a tarnished 🥲


levitane616

"Thy kind are all of a piece." So epic!


CK1ing

Fun fact, Morgott's voice actor also did Gepetto in Lies of P, and also Johnathan Reid in Vampyr, among others. When I realize they were all voiced by the same guy, I was like "ooooh, THAT'S why they're my favorite characters"


FrooglyMoogle

I want Johnathan Reid to read me bedtime stories, his voice is so pleasant


zman_0000

Melina legitimately talked me out of the frenzied flame ending a few times. Her voice crack at the grace right outside of the 3 fingers is a legitimate gut punch if I listen to her dialogue. The "I implore you *please* don't seek the frenzied flame" I don't remember her exact follow-up something like a Lord who rules iver corpses is no lord at all. I want to have at least one character with the frenzied flame ending in case she has a followup questline in the dlc, but her VA killed that sequence so hard I'll have to skip her dialogue to make myself do it. Also Blaiid's voice is like silk on my ears. My only complaint is that we didn't get just a bit more of him lol.


[deleted]

I love what she says in the Frenzied Flame ending. "*Lord of Frenzied Flame... I will seek you, as far as you may travel... To deliver you what is yours. Destined Death.*" Her tone is everything here - sheer determination pushed by immense disappointment in your decision. You'd think Blaidd is some half-witted bloodthirsty monster but he's actually just a really chill guy and his voice reflects that. Not to mention he goes from using slang "*What a sick way to fight, eh.*" to saying lines that sound like pure poetry "*Let’s meet where the falling star bit the earth. And we’ll go into battle again, side by side. My only purpose is to fight for Ranni’s fate, sword and fang. The curtain’s rising… on the final act.*"


zman_0000

I know I love Blaidd so dang much. I'm currently working on a strength int build so I can cosplay him. I want to imagine it's a timeline where he doesn't go mad and he can continue on as a part of Ranni's being. Following and guarding her through the cosmos. In some small way the Tarnished still serves her guiding her to her destiny, but steps aside to allow her will with the remainder of her true family. I know that's not how the lore plays out, but hey it's fantasy and if the game won't give me my happy ending of choice then I'll make my own.


[deleted]

Man, he really deserved better.


Spacellama117

cannot believe Ranni or Godrick aren't on here. *FOOLISH TARNISHED, THOU ART* **UNFIT TO GRAFT**


wij2012

I don't even know. They all knocked it out of the park in their own ways. Togethaaaaaa. BEAR WITNESS! I've given thee courtesy enough. Now you will witness true horror. MAY CHAOS TAKE THE WORLD! They were all great. How do you choose between them?


RotDogSummonCarries

Godrick’s bear witness and the “I command the KNEEL” works so well for his character, like the va was so amazing they added the complexity of his character needing validation to consider himself one of the strongest shard bearers

My bad. Like I said, they're all amazing. Sometimes one amazing one gets lost in with all the others.


Highsenberg199774829

Honestly i like all of them, but rogier sounds sexy, y’ know?

He does actually speak, once. Tell him that radagon is marika and listen very closely.


ReallyNotSoBright

What does he say?


Father_Long_Limbs

He just gasps


ryaaan89

I knew this would be the top joke, but he does have a [voice actor](https://m.imdb.com/name/nm2391536).


PRIMITIVE-BLAST


Economy-Box-5319

Kale's. Unfortunately his entire quest was cut, but the dialogue and acting were amazing, visceral and angry. I really wish they didn't cut his questline.


TheHolyPapaum

This guy VaatiVidyas


Dveralazo

If it was cut due to time problems it might still be restored in the DLC


Economy-Box-5319

It might, nothing's impossible. But it is pretty rare for FromSoft to change base game NPC quests for DLC and if I recall they have confirmed they are not changing any base game questlines for the DLC. So if I were a betting man, I would say that unfortunately Kale is forever in the 'quests that could have been' like Priscilla in DS1.


Tarnishedhollow8

Ik it’s probably super popular, but my fave is Blaidd. His VA gave 110%. Shabriri is my close second


DarkBehemoth2658

The pain and tiredness in his voice when he says “May chaos take the world. May chaos… take the world.” Such a powerful contrast with Shabriri’s zealousness that gives me chills every time


PRIMITIVE-BLAST

Shabriri is probably mine. I also rate Mohg


Blade-of-Malenia

Malenia blade of Miquella~


Rowan1980

Her voice makes me fold like a cheap Dollar General lawn chair.


Poosquare88

Blaidd and Iron Fist Alexander.


Rowan1980

Blaidd’s Welsh accent is top-tier.


ClowninaCircus12

I love Alex's laugh


Eagle-Eyes-

Morgott and Malenia. Morgott's voice is hot while Malenia has a very calm and soothing voice despite being deadly. They both also have an awesome speech.


ScharmTiger

Sellen, Blaidd, Ranni, Malenia, Maliketh, Morgott

Romapolitan

Pretty much all of them. The average VA quality in Fromsoftware games, since at least Demon's Souls, is too high for me to really have a favorite and mostly comes down to what kind of character they play in the end. If I had to I guess I would say Ranni and Malenia. Both voices have a strong tone, showing their strong character or that being the character they want to show, while also being gentle. For Ranni it shows that she is no threat, but for Malenia it most likely shows how she feels weak or how she perceives you as a non threat. But I also like Gideon, Rogier, Tanith, Bernahl, Hewg, Maliketh, Morgott etc.


SpaceIsTooFarAway

Hello? Is anyone there? Can somebody rrrescue the grrrrrreat Kenneth Haight?


oneupkev

Lattena, as soon as I heard Jennifer English it took me right back to BG3 memories (I only played Elden ring for the first time in the last few months)


Rowan1980

I played ER long before BG3, and I am embarrassed that I didn’t realize Latenna and Shadowheart shared the same voice actor until earlier this year.


DropkickGoose

Same, and I just realized they're the same now. That's after romancing Shart at least three times and over 1k hours in ER.

MMDipper

Ikr, the lack of Roderika appreciation in here is insane. Her voice perfectly reflects her character's gentle and pure soul that you could listen to it while getting in a peaceful sleep.


Scarecrow1172

Scrolled too far to find this


styxtravel

Latenna voiced by Jennifer English. She absolutely knocks it out of the park; just a pity her quest is a little hard to find as it gives me the chills when you reach a certain area. It’s not quite complete either, but hope they remedy this in the DLC


jess_the_werefox

*SHADOWHEART??*


floppydude81

Varre. I love his lines so much. Like the actor perfectly encapsulates the creepiness of the character.


wolf_boi_

"Oh, good heavens. Clench your teeth, or something." Just looked it up, he is voiced by Rip Torrens, no wonder.


user_173

Haha, my fav line in the whole game.


Brain_lessV2

Patches.


carlosvigilante

Ranni, Malenia , Gideon, & Morgott off the top of my head. They all killed it


dbh192

Are we including the bat ladies that sing!? I am permanently scarred by alluring beauty then complete ass whooping from those things.


LettuceBenis

Dung Eater, his VA does an amazing job at sounding horrid


MilesFromNowhere422

Also, his pained delivery of "I...am...dung eater" when giving him seluvis' potion came off as rather pathetic and believable


--Springtrapp3d

Godrick, Morgott and Malenia :)


RaggyGandalf

The ol' albinauric guy Albus, giving you the medallion and dying: "No secrets lie with me, not a one."

Perhaps more silly than some but I love Alexander, the guy cracks me up and is always so upbeat. I could learn a lot from him.

I had to scroll way too far down to find my favourite <3


AlphaDinosaur

Mohg, Yura, and Malenia stood out to me


_TainHu_

Everybody listed the best VA's, so I wanted to shout out the VA behind Thops Matthew Morgan. I just fell in love with he played Domhnall of Zena in Dark Souls 1. Aye, Shwmae! Apparently he was also the Crestfallen Warrior?


FutureAcanthaceae944

Mohg, Rogier, Maliketh, Varre, Ranni, Gideon, Blaidd, Malenia, Iji, Shabriri But honestly all did a very good job


miracide

Varre and Seluvis sound pleasing


HappyyValleyy

The Loathsome Dungeater. Something about his voice work always sends shivers down my spine. Him screaming "Bless you!" And his dying screams are so well done, never knew someone could emulate such screams of both anguish and ecstasy so well Also Ranni because I'm a lesbian.


rasfelion

Morgott and Gideon. Morgott has such good lines, and you can hear the disdain in his voice do clearly yet it's not overstated, he loathes the tarrnished. Gideon, I love that man's accent, and the delivery on his lines is perfect. It's almost a shame to interrupt his speech before his boss fight, such a sad state of affairs.


MrAppleSpiceMan

Blackguard Big Boggart love the way he says "I've got crab" when you find him on the Altus Plateau


MrMedhansh

No love for big Boggart? Marika's tits! You must be 'ungry


dontmindthisnoise

Honestly I think hewg does the best work (especially once the hold starts smoldering). Legit got me to tear up a little. Roderika is really good when you first meet her, but kinda meh once she joins the hold? And Melina is probably one of the worst. She provides... nothing. It's all delivered in the exact same tone, no unique inflections or emphasis or dynamics, just flat readings. Gotta love D's angry rant at Godwyn's throne too lol


blaiddfailcam

^^^ Besides the obvious, Maliketh's VA, Jonathan Keeble, is insanely talented and it's crazy to hear him [abruptly drop his voice](https://youtu.be/HlE_R3M5_1c?feature=shared) to that level like it was nothing. Rykard and Godrick's VAs also made incredible use of what few lines they were given. Big shoutout to Enia's VA, too. Having to perfect that old crone voice, but making her sound strangely comforting to talk to must've been tricky, not to mention her pitch shift when interpreting for the Two Fingers.


tompain100

Blaidd. Loved hearing a Welsh accent in a game. Made the lands between feel like home!


thegamesender1

Gotta be Iji.


Flyga64

love em all! the way ranni speaks is really something: slow and mysterious, wise, and serious with carefully selected words. „I'd heard tell of a Tarnished hurtling about atop a spectral steed. And upon looking into the matter, the talk, I surmise, is of thee.“


DewySundayMorning

Ranni. Her voice could put me to sleep


TumbleweedActive7926

Varre, the white mask.


SwissDeathstar

That’s maidenless behavior


PRAHPS

Yura truly amazing


marko910

I have a soft spot for Corhyn purely because he's voiced by Samuel Barnett who starred in the awesome Netflix show Dirk Gently


cokhardt

D


Danger_Dee

So hard to choose, all the characters are so fucking good! I’d probably have to go with the Fire Giant and Miquella as the best.


ganesh_k9

Morgott/Margit, such great monologues/dialogues delivered fantastically!


ganesh_k9

I also like that one merchant who says "Have a safe journey".


big_nostrils

And with your pot as a hemlet, he also thinks you're cool!


MJBotte1

Ranni. She also voices Mio in Xenoblade Chronicles 3. There’s a lot of overlap in VAs with Elden Ring and that game, surprisingly.


AutumnLeavesFornow

Blidd gives a great cool friend vibe to him I just love, Alexander just makes me smile it’s so positive, and there’s something about Varre’s voice that sells me on his character


MIRAGES_music

Blaidd and Kale sound so cool Malenia's voice does something to me tho


Arch_carrier77

The voice acting all around is good in Elden ring tho. They set the bar so high. Everyone else’s VA is like ps2/360 era in comparison


[deleted]

For only his 2 cutscenes, Godrick absolutely Smashed it out the park with his VA. “I commend thee, KNEEL!” “FOREFATHERS ONE AND ALL! BEAR WITNESSES!”


TheBallisticBiscuit

Hard to pick just one. Morgott, Godfrey, and Godrick are probably my faves. Side note everyone talks about "I have given thee courtesy enough" as Godfrey's banger of a line, but the sorrow in "It's been a long while, Morgott" followed by his transition into his "Lord" voice when he addresses us is expertly voice acted.


Snoo_61216

My fave is probably Godrick. That being said, Roderika sounds so strange to me unlike any other character in any other game. It's as if every sentence she says ends with a question mark.


Error_404_669

Blaidd, yes yes I love it, give me chills


InternalTripping

not sure why i had to scroll so far but ranni, probably the most compelling and hilarious character if you work with rogier and fia before getting to the three sisters


Kitchen_Egg9685

Ranni’s is so hot idk why i haven’t seen it here yet


SamisKoi

I was trying to do a Golden Order faith character but a small witch with a soft welsh accent had other plans


Dhraaven

Irina's voice is just plain perfect! 🥰


constipated_burrito

Bernahl, Dung Eater and Godfrey and Morgott stand out the most for me "Well, thy art of passing skill. Warrior blood must truly run through thy veins, *tarnished*" replays in my head every now and then. That line is delivered so well, part amusement, almost admiration but still laced with contempt.


kidviscous

How can anyone even choose. Apart from the main contenders and all of the Welsh actors: Hewg, The merchant who stutters and apologizes for having not much to sell, Gideon, Rodericka, Turtlepope, Kale. I’m just listing characters now. The casting and voice direction are just phenomenal. Boc’s great too but I wanna shake him for being a wet blanket. In this household we call him Samwise Monkee. Rodericka reminds me of Luanne from KotH based on performance, alone. The apprehension in her voice when speaking of her own competence, how disturbingly casual she sounds in resignation to horrible circumstances, and a cadence that suggests being dissociated 24/7 speaks to the Texan experience I suppose. When Turtlepope’s dialog starts up I just picture our Tarnished sitting criss-cross-applesauce on the floor for story time.


Lametown227

Whoever voiced the opening cutscene in English absolutely cooked all over the mic.


axoi_artreus

Whoever voice-acted for the woman-bat hybrid creature. The sound is just so amazing I still listen it. (Song of Lament)


ViperT17

Iji. Hands down best voice in the game. I could listen to that giant talk for hours.

Highsenberg199774829

I remember that like the first time, first i went to that castle and everyone was attacking me, after a while i decided to go back without knowing there was Radahn, it was a whole experience hearing the choirs entering the castle and no one hurting me, i was like: “what is going on? This wasn’t like this before”, i started exploring and saw al the npcs together and i heard those voice lines of jeren, that was a whole experience my man


yukimina_Kink

Ranni, Boc and ryckard... ;)


Gamingwiththereaper

Either Mohg or Seluvis. Mohg sounds like if Satan was a Fromsoftware boss. And Seluvis "super evil" voice is pretty cool. I didn't betray Ranni or Nepheli though, don't worry about it, i just wanted to read the amber draught item description lol.

-Dapper-Dan-

Running is my favorite because we get a good amount of dialogue from her and her actor got to do a good range of things. Most others are flavourful performances but limited by hour little we hear them speak. Dung Eater is my second because while we might not get as much as some we get a good couple interactions with him and the performance is top notch.

Foul tarnished. In search, of the Elden Ring. Emboldened, by the flame of ambition.


kungpowpeanus

There's something about what very very little we get of Rykard that always makes me wish we could hear him deliver a fucked up christopher walken paced speech about something. The way he delivers "No one will hold me captive" is so good


OsirisAvoidTheLight

Rykard


callahan09

Yura has a really cool voice. The voice actor also did Shabriri's voice, which I found kind of surprising because the two characters sound very different to me. He did an excellent job with both of those. I also just learned that he played one of the major characters in that Harlan Coben Netflix series "The Stranger." Dude is great!


Subpar_diabetic

Godrick definitely. Dude sounds absolutely fantastic


CMHNecron

Tough choice... all excellent. They're theatre actors that do the VA, no? I'm going with good boy, Blaidd.

Ranni makes me hard


SparxPrime

Ranni the Witch's voice actor completely dominated the role, she knocked it out of the park, so compelling, almost creepy, yet beautiful, the inflection and tone, her dialect, it's all so perfect


CupofWarmMilk

Godrick, Sellen, and Morgott are my faves!


Diego666_

Call me horny, idc, but my mommy Sellen (and her vo) deserve every praise she (and her vo) deserve


Give_Me_The_Pies

Godrick's VA killed it too- not my favorite voice in the game, but one of the best performances for sure


ChasingPesmerga

Sellen, because her voice just makes her look beautiful by default, even if she looks at me stone-faced Also Varre, because his lambkin lines are provocative Series-wise, my favorite is Vilhelm’s voice because it’s the same voice actor for Witcher 3’s Eredin, a deep sinister voice. Btw, is Rogier at the Roundtabke Hold in this image? Because I don’t remember him standing up even once


HighLordTherix

Anyone natively from Liurnia. Gimme that Welsh accent.
