FORT-936523 has been created and its status is ‘Unconfirmed’. This is now in a queue to be reproduced and confirmed.

The fact that Guards are now playing some voicelines in random order is cool. But the fact that it is the same voice for all Guards and it doesn’t even distinguish gender, so Guards with female character cosmetics sounds like men, that is just silly and it is breaking the vibe.

Voted for a fix.
