### What do you need help with? Question ### Issue area Character Description / Speaking Style ### Impact Normal - something is not working as expected ### Character ID 3a28ace8-bb1e-11f0-b031-42010a7be025 ### Session ID d1f5bd7b-a61c-4596-aaf8-7e63847a91ba ### Where does it happen? Unity SDK ### Short summary Had feedback that the way the character speaks German is different since I updated the Unity Convai SDK ### Recent character changes Hi Convai šŸ‘ Iā€™ve had feedback that the way the character speaks German is different since I updated the Unity Convai SDK, this is an example of some of it : "Sukiā€™s speech is sometimes so unclear that sheā€™s unintelligible, and on top of that, thereā€™s that awful dialect. Thereā€™s also still stuttering and dropouts. Iā€™ll reinstall the previous version tomorrow. It seems the developer has incorporated a German language with a (I think Swiss) dialect. I suspect only the German version is affected, because in your video it sounded like the old Suki. " and ā€œBro suki in german sounds dutchā€ It seems that the characters German is now not the same as it was before the SDK update but I canā€™t speak German so cannot confirm this unfortunately. I do trust what these users say though. Is this a real thing because without speaking German I cannot tell for myself? Is there something I can do about it, etc? ### User message or prompt They were just conversing naturally. ### Current response The characters seems to have some sort of strange dialect or accent of another language, please see the comment above for details. ### Expected response In German with a German accent, like what was happening with Convai Unity SDK V3.x ### Steps to reproduce 1. Speak in German to the character. ### I checked the relevant documentation, resources, and similar forum posts before posting. on ### I confirm that I did not include API keys, tokens, passwords, secrets, private character data, private conversation logs, or customer data. on ---

This is not related to the Unity SDK version. On [convai.com](http://convai.com), the new Playground uses WebRTC, while the old Playground uses grpc. Could you try the same character in both the old and new Playgrounds and let us know how the German voice sounds in each one? ---

Ok I will do, I wonā€™t be able to tell but what I will do is record me asking the character to speak German in each Playground and then share those recordings with the native German speaker to see what they think, will do that within the next 24 hours, thanks. ---

Hi K3, its the German in the new playground that is the issue, the old playground (legacy) German is ok. ---
