Also, would it have killed them to separate the male and female voices?
I like it that all the voices are available for all characters, but given that for most characters players are surely more likely to be selecting from just four options, it agree it would make more sense to group them and, say, have the male-sounding voices 1-4 and the female 5-8. Or alternatively if, say, voices 1 & 2 were male and female sounding versions of a similar timbre/accent and same for 3&4 and so on. But as far as I can tell, there's no correspondence between the pairs in that way. For example, voice 3 is (I think) the best of a bad lot for a gruffer male voice, whereas 6 seems to be the closest female equivalent.
Though it's not a big deal for me, given the time spent on this in character creation is miniscule compared to the time actually playing the character. It's just a bit puzzling.
