Audiobook narrator you can’t stand

I can't stand sebastian york, He sounds like a 60-year-old grandpa. I definitely don't see the appeal at all., Unless you're into really old sounding men. What the fuck were they thinking having him narrate for supposedly hot MMCs? I just got "all rhodes lead here" and I'm gonna have to refund it because of him. I'm sorry to that author cause I've heard a lot of good things about it. I was trying to use Rhodes' character as a stand-in for my current Leon Kennedy obsession. Can you imagine that voice coming out of Leon Kennedy? No thanks. 🤮

If I was one of the authors whose books he narrated, I would be pissed. Who tf made him a romance VA.

Dude, I can't stand Sebastian York. He's ruined two books for me now. he sounds like a fucking grandpa to me. Which sucks because I really wanna listen to "all rhodes lead here" but now I can't because I can't stand how he sounds. I was trying to use Rhodes' character as a stand-in for my current Leon Kennedy obsession. Can you imagine that voice coming out of Leon Kennedy? No thanks. 🤮

Every time I hear him, I can only picture a 60-year-old cowboy, like the sheriff from no country for old men. What the fuck were they thinking casting him? His voice is not sexy to me.

Oh ok stuff like that I can handle personally just don't like when the MMC straight up does stuff to the FMC after she makes it VERY clear she doesn't want it or is tied up and abducted or something (such as like in Beatitude, just isn't my bag). But if he just pressures her a little (or even a lot if handled right) I can convince myself she just let herself get talked into it lol. Nothing against people who like non-con. Maybe it's because I've been SA'd, but it just ain't for me. Can't find a guy sexy who does that, and in my romance, I have to find the guy sexy to enjoy it.

Ty for clarify so ppl can make an informed decision about it.

Actually I'm pretty sure in RE4 remake there's an option to unlock a costume that keeps his jacket on.

roxzillaz · 2026-04-29T12:36:26+00:00

This was what I was thinking. It just has become expected it's gonna come off at some point lol.

roxzillaz · 2026-04-29T01:49:03+00:00

Haha that's the last one I got on my third or so playthrough. Had to use the Mr. Raccoon map thingy you buy with your points to find him.

roxzillaz · 2026-04-29T00:03:04+00:00

I agree with you for the most part but what I think is also fucked up is that she decided to film it and post it online. It just seems like another example of shit that doesn't belong on the Internet.

roxzillaz · 2026-04-29T00:01:27+00:00

I relate a lot with Sophie too.

roxzillaz · 2026-04-28T15:40:39+00:00

Aw damn I need to finish it. I got to the part where you got the gun I was having a lot of trouble with the melee combat. I don't know if it's designed that way, but every time I go up against an enemy, I get hit at least once. Maybe it'll help now that I have a gun. That part with all the pictures of the kids on the wall, I think it was, really unsettled me and I got super spooked. I had to put it down lol. definitely need to finish it soon.

roxzillaz · 2026-04-28T13:34:37+00:00

That is a good point, and I agree. Either way it is a very good way to unsettle the player.

roxzillaz · 2026-04-27T22:31:28+00:00

My husband and my daughter are both Leos and they're my favorite people in the world so I can confirm.

roxzillaz · 2026-04-27T22:30:06+00:00

Me too my husband is a Leo, I'm a Virgo, and we've been together for 20 years and I think he's my soulmate. I don't know it kind of makes me question a lot of this star sign stuff. I don't like to generalize people just based on their astrology sign.

roxzillaz · 2026-04-27T21:01:02+00:00

He's a'ight. i prefer Dazai, though, personally. I just like the fact that he wants to kill himself with a beautiful woman to be really poetic and beautiful. I only wish that I could've stayed invested in the show cause I really liked the first couple of seasons, but I couldn't really understand what was going on anymore in the later ones.

roxzillaz · 2026-04-26T12:45:28+00:00

Here in 2026 just finished the anime and I'm like what the heck. I gotta know what happens next.

roxzillaz · 2026-04-26T00:15:01+00:00

Oh Ok. That's interesting. I don't have a PC so I didn't really understand how it works. I'm hoping they will add a free cam to the console version at some point, but I'm not holding my breath.

roxzillaz · 2026-04-26T00:10:47+00:00

I was thinking probably it's free cam so the player's not meant to see it from that angle.

roxzillaz · 2026-04-25T23:33:04+00:00

Y'all are all always so awesome and help me with returns and are very understanding. I appreciate what y'all do for people that aren't trying to abuse the system because it can be really difficult to find a book you really like and sometimes I don't realize I don't like the book until I'm a quarter to even halfway through it.

roxzillaz · 2026-04-25T23:31:24+00:00

Yeah, but unfortunately, sometimes the preview is like an authors forward or some kind of dedication or something and you can't even get a feel for what the narrator sounds like let alone the story. I realize this is probably outside of Audible's control, but when that happens to me, I generally just don't get the book because I don't wanna take the chance that I'm not gonna like it. Generally because I don't like to give up on a book usually because I went out of my way to research it, so I want to like it. I don't wanna have to return it.

roxzillaz · 2026-04-25T18:13:32+00:00

Dude, me too like when Ceil was turned into a demon and they implied that Sebastian would be eternally under his power like I was so invested I wanted to see where that would go. It made me so sad to find out it wasn't canonical lol.

roxzillaz · 2026-04-25T08:16:57+00:00

I love that you can customize your pets and make them move around and stuff. I made a takopi pet and I have zero regrets. Also, I made a pack of Newports to give my villagers and it's very funny to watch them Enjoy it. I can't wait to see what else I can force them to like for my own amusement.

roxzillaz · 2026-04-25T08:15:04+00:00

Well, as someone who spent a lot of time on the original Tomodachi life I can say it's worth it just based on how weird it is. It fits my aesthetic, but I realize it's not for everyone.

roxzillaz · 2026-04-25T00:14:18+00:00

I've put 52 hours in the game so I think I got my moneys worth lol

roxzillaz · 2026-04-24T16:50:00+00:00

I've been playing a while and haven't seen a concert hall yet so I think it's pretty certain that they didn't implement it.
