The AI reading is terrible

Stories were good but the AI reading I greatly dislike , I need the warm and emotion a real voice lends to the story

virtual voice narrator

I personally couldn't get past the virtual voice to enjoy the story. Due to the dull placement of words which show know true reflection of human feelings its hard become connected with characters that lack emotion so virtual voice narration is not for me.

Fun Collection of Tales

I loved that so many of these stories took elements from cultures, whose horror stories I don’t get to hear as much. 

AI bad. No more AI Voice PLEASE!

The virtual voice takes away from each and every story. You need inflection you need emotions. Without it you get a 30 something reading the Bible like a 5 year old out loud while watching cartoons. Now, there is one decent actors voice used for AIVV, but it’s not this one or the girl. They are just just horrible. Don’t get me wrong, this actors voice is nice but he’s a damn robot. The girl…ugh! Just horrendous. Sounds like she gasped helium right before every non emotional supposed emotional part and then decided to just say “screw it” and completely give up on life itself. It’s like we just fell back to 2000 virtual voice. The stories aren’t too bad well, some of them are very bad but most are good. The Garden story is “gag me with a spoon!” I hope the story wasn’t that poorly written. I can see this site messing up the editing like other stories that past authors and listeners have complained about. But hey, I’m splitting hairs, some of the stories are good on their own. So yeah, enjoy if you can. That is if you can get through AIVV3000 vocal prowess.

hate the voice

do not like virtual voice no inflection or any sadness or excitement way to monotone
