[saku]

i don't really like his interpretations either. his eridan one especially annoys me, but everyone else thinks it's perfect.

[khronos_keeper]

Aw. I think when they were doing a read along in the forums, this type of stuff got pretty prevalent. I did a reading for Dave, but was rejected bc the read along panel liked the deeper 20-something male voice.

[diet_poison]

An Octopimp secret! :D

Though I really disagree, I like his voices a lot, at least for the male characters. ymmv.

(btw, the "bro" voice isn't actually Octo, it's his brother)

[(Anonymous)]

Though he's by no means the most talented VA out there, I feel bad for all the hate he gets. His fans are awful and he gets typecast as awful when in fact he's just a dude who likes to do fan voices for comics. I don't agree with people who act like his voices are canon, but I hate that he gets all the blame for his fans going nuts over him just having fun with his interpretation of fictional characters.

[insanenoodlyguy]

Yeah. I just like his stuff. I do admit his Equius and Eridan are what are in my head but I'm not insistent about it.

The only canon voice I'd insist on is the singing voice in "Your Universe"

This is Snowman. No questioning this.

Really? I think Rachel St. Marseille's voice is too girlish -- it doesn't have a lot of depth, and she honestly sounds strained in her upper register. I was surprised by how many people loved "Your Universe" (and "Temporal Shenanigans," too).

[(Anonymous)]

ALL of the homestuck songs with lyrics are fucking awful.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, it seems like a lot of hate he gets is for things he doesn't have any control over, e.g. the obnoxiousness of his fans or how popular his VA work is. There's a big difference between just not liking his interpretations and treating him like he's a bad person (he's a pretty good guy ime) because of their prevalence.

Am I the only person who can't read this?

Re: Am I the only person who can't read this?

[elaminator]

I don't really care for Octopimp's homestuck voices at all.

I feel like he plays characters like Dave and John way too old, (they're 13, they shouldn't sound like grown men) and the trolls way too over the topishly cartoony. The only one that doesn't make me go "this is just silly" is his bro voice.

I seriously dislike how he's considered the unofficial "canon" VA for practically the entire series.

[elaminator]

Still don't read homestuck but this art is so compelling I had to say so. So pretty.

[(Anonymous)]

It has almost nothing to do with Homestuck.

[elaminator]

Well, the fandom, and I'm not in the fandom either so...

[insanenoodlyguy]

... Bro's voiced by his brother, not him.

[duendedefined]

I kind of like some of his voices, but he's so egotistical. :/ And I've had friends who've worked with him who say he's kind of a douche, so he's really quite a guilty pleasure for me. Emphasis on the "guilty" bit.

[bored_bitch]

I don't know who the VA is for Karkat is in his recent videos, but I really like that Karkat voice.

I also like Sollux and Equius' voices.

The rest, I'm not that fond or apathetic to.
John, Gamzee, Eridan, and Tavros in particular get on my nerves.

[(Anonymous)]

I like his Sollux and Equius, but the other's I don't care for so much.

I absolutely hate his Gamzee, though. Why does he sound like he's a fifty-year-old smoker? Why? It just bugs me. :/

[(Anonymous)]

Ugh, yes. His Gamzee is just plain shitty. 13 year old kid that eats his drugs is not gonna sound like someone who smokes three cartons a day.

[(Anonymous)]

i know nothing about homestuck fandom but my favorite fan voice actor i've found for it is this guy (http://jbriner.tumblr.com/post/14498401940/rapid-fire-request-trial-by-fire-this-is-from-my)

[cloud_riven]

If I had it my way, as in if there was an actual canon VA thing, all the kids and trolls would be played by kiddo actors, women, and anyone who voiced a rugrat. As much as I love octopimp's videos, I do wish younger-sounding voices were a thing.

But that's just me, and my way is probably terrible.

Also, his bro's Bro voice is totally perfection.

[nailtek]

wait people still care about octopimp

[(Anonymous)]

+1

who currs

[corvigryph]

I don't really like the Gamzee but everything else is ok.... I feel bad though because he seems really nice :x
