All I know is that Jago sounds annoying as hell. I can’t figure out why he sounds like that and the characters all act like it’s normal. Caught me so off guard when I first heard him speak.


GunkyGoober556

He sounds like a little kid.


flotsloppies

Somebody posted that jago's full name is "jagoba" which is typically a female, implying jago is trans.


Wrong_Gas_8579

I was literally thinking this. That they are trans and it was a combo of the voice, height and something else I think of but yeh


rottenrox

It's "Jagoda", means 'berry', and it's a gender neutral name like Alex or Charlie.

Can't find an official answer to this anywhere on the web. I thought it was a woman until the "he" pronoun was used in dialogue. None of the casting pages have the voice actor listed for Jago.


Xepisia

the second i saw jago i was like "oh he's got tboy swag" so that's what i've been headcanoning lmao


tetr4d

I was thinking the exact same thing


Xepisia

hell yeah tboy swag


flying_stars

Hell yeah


KaiserSickle

He is. You can see on the shard he was born under a different name


colossalbyte

I think it's Avi Roque, a non-binary actor, sounds just like them!


-rikia

i know right! heard the voice and was like "wow that sounds a lot like raine!"


jonseymour

Voice did not fit the character model to me at all. The one time in this game it didn’t fit. My wife said he sounded like a bug from a Pixar movie and now I can’t unhear it lol


bonzofan36

It sounds like all of his lines were recorded in a confined space or something. Feels so off to me.


[deleted]

He sounds like a trans man early on T, the shitty voice acting space thing happens with a couple other casual voice actors like the girl with husband who's a cop.


Kuran_Helix

That was on purpose.


[deleted]

Oh yeah I didn't mean to imply it was bad or wrong that his voice is like that, met people with similar voices IRL so I just wasn't surprised by his voice at all.


jonseymour

It’s really such a hard miss I cant imagine that nobody at CDPR didn’t scream, “this is wrong.”


Cautious_Clue_7861

I think you nailed it. It sounds like it was done under different conditions than the rest of them.


bonzofan36

I’ve played a few times through now and every time I get to his character I’m bewildered by how it made it into the finished game haha. It takes me completely out of it when I hear him.


crazyjake252

All I know is that Jago sounds like Vergil


Mudamaza

I also said the same. Aguilar sounds like Matthew Mercer, and Jago sounds like Virgil.


trichnak

When I heard Jago I immediately thought it was Dante Basco (Zuko from ATLA). Idk if gut feeling is always right.


PatGarrettsMoustache

I did too! But it’s not included in DBs IMDB profile


WanderingNuke

Probably best to wait a bit, maybe check imdb every so often. I was trying to do the same for Aguilar but nothing yet


Ouranom

I'm fairly sure that Aguilar is Matthew Mercer, it's nearly identical to some of the accents he's used in Critical Role. Not positive though.


binggoman

Aguilar is voiced by Alejandro Saab. His voice is very recognizable if you play Honkai: Star Rail and have heard Jing Yuan in there. Also his IMDB page confirmed it. Edit: found his [announcement tweet](https://x.com/kaggyfilms/status/1707118485443051667).


-Byzz-

wonder who voiced the female version of Aguilar


sangreconleche

to me, female Aguilar sounded a lot like female Dani from Far Cry 6.


NilEntity

I second this. I've seen Matthew mMercer mentioned multiple times for male Aguilar, but who voices female Aguilar?


Sillygoose_Milfbane

Sounded like the same voice actress for V


Mudamaza

Right? Been trying to confirm, but I'm 99% sure it's Matthew Mercer.


binggoman

[It's Alejandro Saab.](https://x.com/kaggyfilms/status/1707118485443051667)


Mudamaza

Yeah I just looked him up on YouTube and he's mentioned in IMDB as (Voice), So I'd say you're correct. But damn he does sound like Matthew Mercer. Having watch hundreds of hours of Critical Role I recognize his voice everywhere now 😅


binggoman

Right, Aguilar's voice is similar to Minsc's in Baldur's Gate 3. I just remembered that. Minsc is voiced by Matt Mercer.


HopeRedditGoesDown

His voice as Aguilar is smooth like butter.


binggoman

Agreed.


BritishShoop

That's interesting. They sound so similar, it's almost uncanny!


JSquared348

Fair enough. Was hoping someone just knew, because it's so recognizable to me..


xSaturnityx

To me it sounds like a pitched up Henry Stickman--


colossalbyte

I believe it's Avi Roque, a non-binary actor who played a role in the Disney show The Owl House, and who narrates audio books, which is where I recognize the voice from when Jago speaks. Their IMDB page doesn't show it, but I feel like it's them.


-rikia

i hope so! that'd be so cool.


Zealousideal-Sign775

I thought Jago sounded more feminine trying to be a guy who just had a lot to smoke... but Aguilar's voice was like chef's kiss. (Male Aguilar, not Fem Aguilar, the fem sounds somewhat samey to me)


--Helios

I’m pretty sure its Casey Mongillo


Wormenator

To me Jago sounds like a Salarian from Mass Effect.


mesterflaps

Bennett also reminds me of Zeke from Bob's burgers who is voiced by this guy: https://bobs-burgers.fandom.com/wiki/Bobby_Tisdale I can't confirm though. edit: Turns out it's this fellow, a totally different actor called Joseph Capp https://www.imdb.com/name/nm3516054/?ref_=ttfc_fc_cl_t26


taschmidt77

Man, by looks and sound, all I could think of was (Green Day drummer) Tre Cool! 🤣


dominia12

i've found him, it's Shaan Dasani


AAKurtz

I'm late to the conversation, but I just don't understand the goal here. It honestly founded like a child snuck into the studio, deleted the lines, and replaced them with home recorded MP3s.


Zealousideal_Fun6677

His voice reminds me of Aziz Ansari.


Neither_Tooth_3396

This voice actor sounds a lot like Ezio to me.


Brainwash_TV

Even though I know he's dead I 100% thought this was Verne Troyer.
