Damn Jennifer Hale is so good.

A preference is fine and there is no issue with that. I'm talking about the fans who act like Meer is garbage and male Shepard is awful. I had a femshep fan call me an idiot who is insecure and cannot stand a female saving the galaxy (despite him knowing I have played femshep many times) because I like male Shepard more. From my experience, I have seen several femshep fans like this. It is fine to be a fan of something, but I dislike it when someone has to put down the opposing thing to prop up what they prefer. There were a few articles when MELE came out saying why you should play female and that male Shepard is weak or bad. Why not celebrate femshep's strong points without being negative?

Then again, I have noticed this with several games where you can choose gender where the female fans tend to be like this (Assassin's Creed Odyssey and Fire Emblem Fates as examples). Those fans tend to belittle the male character despite being the same character with just a different voice.

Yeah I've played bot hways an din fact I though tbo thMark and Jennife rbot hdid a great job wit hShepard. Whilst I'l l admit wi thDAI and MEA I prefer the female VA ove rthe male plus I felt Sara kind of me tthe role of Path finde rbetter stor ywise than Scott does with her background in the sciences. But I do think wi thShepard I think both Jen and Mar kboth did aqn equal job and tbh I feel the same wit hhawk in tha tthe 2 VA's in DA2 did a pretty equal job too whenever I play that.

Actuall ythat was  Hawkes VA that did Ciri not the Inquisitor's VA. Alix Wilton Regan who did the Inquisitor. It was Jo Wyatt who did Hawke and Ciri

Jennifer Hale is definitely my #1 Favourite VA. Period. Though close 2nd's are Grey Delisle and Tara Strong (Cat Woman and Harley Quinn in the Batman Arkham series, most notably.) My first exposure to Ms Hale was as Bastila Shan, and then (the female) Jaden Korr in Dark Forces: Jedi Academy, and I've been a fan of hers ever since so when I heard she was cast as Commander (Jane) Shepard, I was over the moon.

I've heard of those games but never played them.  I also really liked Courtney Taylor (Jack is my favourite character in the franchise).

Good call. 

You what?  Okay, whenever you have some extra cash to spare go to GoG.com and buy Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines.  It should be on sale right now and it comes with the Unofficial Patch installed.  I can write so much about how great the game is but if you ever buy it I'll let you experience it yourself.  It's an old game that was released back in 2004, but despite it's age the game still looks good.  The unarmed and melee combat is clunky.  The ranged combat is wonky, but the beauty of the game is that in the first half you can talk your way out of most fights if you have high enough Charisma.  But don't neglect your combat skills.  Also don't choose Malkavian as your first clan.  They are insane and the story might not make sense at first.  So choose one of the other seven vampire clans.

Always fun to hear her in a bit of a different role (not the tough warrier kind) as Leah in Diablo 3 (yes, I actually liked the D3 SP campaign somewhat).

I feel she is a bit over rated by some of her fans. What's worse is some of her fans tend to put down Meer sadly. Some of her deliveries are pretty bad and she sounds very samey in many deliveries. Her renegade tough guy also can sound really off or forced. Some of her deliveries also make her sound creepy like with Jacob.

Despite this, she is still very good. There are some scenes that she knocks it out of the park and they are some of the most memorable scenes. I haven't played femshep in years and I still remember how great she sounded in the Kaiden dinner scene. She perfectly encapsulated that playful demeanor to counter act Kaidan being more serious. Or the quiet and restrained way she delivers the Thane memorial scene without crying.
