I think it might partially be a case of Gideon Emery sounding bland because he's been in so many recent games that have effectively had him use the exact same voice. I find that whilst he's a great voice actor with a distinct voice there isn't much difference between him voicing Balthier in FFXII, Lor'themar in WoW, Fenris in Dragon Age 2 and Urianger in FFXIV. I say this as someone who is pretty fond of elves when they're portrayed in a gritty manner and he pulls it off well. He's just...overused, I guess. Though from what I gather Urianger only has a few spoken lines and so it's difficult to tell for sure. I'm also secretly hoping he does some voice acting in TESO so I'm of two minds on the matter.
