A reminder for Vedal Regarding V3 voice

[visual axle]

Making a new voice for it to sound 100% like the old one is, by definition, completely pointless. It's no surprise you hit a wall in the training data part if you're trying that, because only V1 Neuro sounds exactly like V1 Neuro.

The whole situation looks like an open alpha game that has no updates for 10 years because "the project we were developing was not to our standards, so we're remaking the entire game for the 4th time". Please don't fall for that trap, it's been 2 and a half years already (since V2 voice, that was supposed to go to neuro)

I know it's your project at the end of the day, but since this is a project destined to the public, try not to 100% isolate yourself on your own bias, specially if you're trying to seek the impossible. You already got an overwhelming approval from the several selected people you handpicked, as you said on a dev stream. Please at least listen to their feedback.

I would not be opposed if you released the V3 voice and it only sounds ~90% like V1 Neuro. The worst thing that could happen is the public saying that it's shit (which is what you're doing to yourself already, so it'll make no difference and you'll be validated).

Please don't let your seek for perfection harm Neuro's development

I don't seek perfection, it's just not good enough yet

[stiff heath]

that sounds the opposite tbh
is the current v3 progress usable?

[sonic elbow]

Maybe if it’s that hard to make V3 voice by yourself, we could do something like a "Voice Jam", where different people try to create the perfect Neuro (and maybe Evil) voice for a worthy prize

Surely we can wait a little bit more. It's been only quarter of a decade

[visual axle]

There's a saying that goes "the more you clean, the more you'll see the filth", meaning the more you polish something, the more apparent for you will be the imperfections. I talked about bias in the OP in the sense that you, who's doing the polishing for god knows how long, will see some flaws that the general public won't even notice or care about. It's common for creative people to fall into this trap, specially in long term projects. (Of course, I don't know how objectively usable the voice is, but if it had approval of other people you trusted in giving feedback, it makes it seem like it's not that bad)

Literally stop yapping all of you and let him cook. Damn, trying to bring down a guy that is truly committed to doing something till the end is weird

[lament temple]

you guys notice how v3 and silksong both have two syllables

[grizzled egret]

v3 has reached the same mythical status silksong had so honestly the comparison is pretty apt

when it does eventually come out we'll all lose our minds and say it finally happened etc

[whole stump]

2 years of cooking, it’s not to bring Vedal down but just being realistic. Making V3 sound like V1 is already a near impossible task and trying to achieve it has just meant that we’ve gotten no updates on Neuro’s voice at all, also who knows how much V3 impedes the development time of other stuff.
we appreciate Vedal working hard on V3 voice but that doesn’t discount the negatives.

[visual axle]

it's the equivalent of Neuro still using Hiyori's model to this day because he couldn't find the original artist to redraw her as Neuro (I'm glad that didn't happen)

[sterile bone]

I'd rather wait than have her sound exactly like evil. (the bloopers sounded like from an abber demon stream, though we don't know how long ago they were from)

I don't want to neuro to have her iconic voice replaced by something that's not done

[plain whale]

It's taking so long not only because he wants it to be good but also because he's doing other things at the same time. I'm certain if he didn't do anything else(which the channel would be pretty boring if nothing happened!) it would have been done a lot sooner.

[strong belfry]

My only request for V3 voice is that he finds a way to keep the way she says "No." It's her most adorable trait.

[velvet rain]

The slight lisp on "Honeshtly" is pretty iconic as well.

[faint bluff]

Yesterday's "dev stream" was more of a yapping stream, there weren't many updates about the development on V3 voice and instead we got a lot of corporate stuff. I get he's joking about making money off Neuro, but with less updates about Neuro developments, that joke is starting to feel a bit off. No hate here, just saying how I feel about yesterday dev stream.

[unkempt kernel]

Welcome to the old days, many dev streams were just yapping.

[plain whale]

Since nuero and evil can program now dev streams can be them making webpages of various kinds. It would be adorable to have a bunch of different webpages made by them.

[balmy kite]

yapping dev streams were some of the funniest streams iv watched like the unfiltered twins, or evil forces Vedal to support penguin rights
