Dumb Question about voices
Syera:
Whoa... am I dreaming that I'm reading this topic? Because voice variation in a Sims game was something I'd fantasized about, and as far as I know, all my Sims sound the same. So, a stupid question: is there a setting you have to activate to get variated voices? Does this only appear on higher-end machines?
ZephyrZodiac:
There are two or three noticeably different adult male voices, and either two or three adult female, but the variations beyond that are not really noticeable, I think it may be that they make slightly different combinations of expressions, and different pitches. I don't think it matters whether your machine is high or low end, but it may make a difference if you raise the sound quality bar.

the one group that seems to all have the same voice is the elder females

Okay. This is the thread I was trying to post in when the forum decided to have issue. I couldn't remember where I was, but I knew I was in the middle of posting something.
The personalities of the sims will affect what phrases the sims will use, too. For example, a male teen with 4 or more nice points will try to get your attention with a calm "rahchee nikoh...", but take away one nice point and he does this hilarious "Kom fraga!" thing. Even the grouchy children have their own sayings.

Every conversation my "me" Sim has, involves him sticking a finger in the air and announcing "Hamm Lataplatti". I think it's something to do with a Scandinavian Rally driver...
Sid Meier's latest Pirates! game (I think the aptly named Hook has been playing this, too) has some great Simlish dialogue. Obviously an early dialect, and you can tell the differences between the Dutch, French, English and Spanish.
