Stupid Epiphany: Barathrum and Ursa sound the same in General Discussion

    I mean, they changed Necrophos to sound a tad different from Warlock, but these two are almost indistinguishable, even with the obvious effects applied, and I know there's a total of like 10 voice actors doing all the heroes, but I didn't really figure this out til til a few days ago when I was pretty stupefied for not noticing it before. It seems like SB's voice is pitched down by like 2 semitones, if that much.

    I mean, listen to their "No!"

            Wat. It's the same actor, with the same personality and way of talking, pitched down 2 semitones at best and filtered a bit, and that's it. I mean, yes, it sounds A BIT different, but I can pinpoint exactly what the difference is, and it's really tiny.

                      It's the same voice actor, Furry, but SD's voice is really really drenched in effects to hide it, at least. Brewmaster and Lycan would be similar as shit if it were not for those 'exotic' accents and slight vox processing. In fact, Troll Warlord and Shadow Demon sound somewhat alike because they are modified from the same voice actor, with the same effects, only echo is more pronounced on SD's voice and distortion is more pronounced on Troll's voice. Gyro's and Meepo's voices are also pretty nicely processed and acted differently/with different accent/general personality to sound different, and that's the same voice actor as KotL, Lycan, SD, Troll, Brew, etc. I'm just saying, some people have put more effort into some things, and some less in others. Bara/Ursa thing sounds as half assed as Necrophos' "correction".
