draft1983 Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 I always loved her voice for some reason as imogen - do you think/would like for her to do a voice in this game??
Zed Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 (edited) They should cast voice actors based on character appropriateness, not to service fans. I think Imoen had pretty good v/a though, even if the character wasn't very good. Edited September 24, 2012 by Zed 5
draft1983 Posted September 24, 2012 Author Posted September 24, 2012 It's just a question, no need to be obnoxious. 1
nikolokolus Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 I'll be honest Imoen's voice was kind of grating after awhile. To each their own I guess.
Zed Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 I was expressing my opinion on a discussion board, no need to be butthurt. 3
evdk Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 I demand Felicia Day to be in this production. Voicing all the roles. 6 Say no to popamole!
Hoverdog Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 I only have experiences with potato localisation - and Imoen's faux-russian accent in it was ****ing painful. [intelligence] I'm fighting the Good Fight with my posts.
RiceMunk Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 I think we need Logan Cunningham (Bastion narrator dude) to be the voice of the PC's love interest. Which one of them, you ask? All of them. Even the women. 2
flarglebargle Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 it would be rediculous but being attacked by bloodthristy giants with felica day's voice would be hilarious
flarglebargle Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 the only voice acting this game should have is none at all or just the major characters like faction leaders because it will get expensive but the voice acting in FNV made the characters really stand out
JediMB Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 I demand Felicia Day to be in this production. Voicing all the roles. Except the ones voiced by Tara Strong. Something stirs within...
Malcador Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 Get Steve Blum, he has a pretty wide range of voices. Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra
TCJ Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 Her voice worked for the character. The voice actress may or may not work for characters in this game, who knows? It also depends on the talent, too. For instance, we all know Jim Cummings can do many types of voices, inflections, etc., whereas I'm sure there are some who are more limited (but good at what they do) in range.

Jozape Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 I'll be honest Imoen's voice was kind of grating after awhile. To each their own I guess. I didn't find it annoying till BG2, when they started making her all whiney. Then again she didn't talk much in BG1 either.
Klaleara Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 Get Steve Blum, he has a pretty wide range of voices. I'm waiting to find a game that DOESN'T have him. Don't ruin the last thing on my bucket list!
KenThomas Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 Claudia Black and Jennifer Hale. Very much so for both. Their inflections etc are fantastic.
Nakia Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 All the voice actors for the BG games are twelve (12) years older. The voice does change as you mature. Plus I would rather see money spent on other things than "stars". This is a new game even if based on old ways. I don't want a clone of BG or PS/T or any other game. I just want the things that made those games so outstanding. Story, depth, challenges etc. New voices for a new game is my vote. I have but one enemy: myself - Drow saying
Piccolo Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 I always found Imoen's voice to be incredibly annoying. Also, to the people suggesting famous names for voice actors - NO. This adds nothing to the game experience at all. All it does is waste money that could be spent elsewhere. Besides, in a fantasy game, who the hell wants to hear an NPC speak and think "that's [insert Earth celebrity]". I'm actually in favour of no voice actors at all, but if they insist on having some voices in the game, they should use unknown professional voice actors and limit the voiced dialogue to very basic greetings... 2
Sylvius the Mad Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 Frank Welker, voice-acting superstar. God used to be my co-pilot, but then we crashed in the Andes and I had to eat him.
septembervirgin Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 Melissa Disney has a remarkable voice! How much would she cost, though? "This is what most people do not understand about Colbert and Silverman. They only mock fictional celebrities, celebrities who destroy their selfhood to unify with the wants of the people, celebrities who are transfixed by the evil hungers of the public. Feed us a Gomorrah built up of luminous dreams, we beg. Here it is, they say, and it looks like your steaming brains." " If you've read Hart's Hope, Neveryona, Infinity Concerto, Tales of the Flat Earth, you've pretty much played Dragon Age."
Delterius Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 (edited) They should cast voice actors based on character appropriateness, not to service fans. I think Imoen had pretty good v/a though, even if the character wasn't very good. I think IGN employers should voice every character. Somehow that's fanservice to someone. Edited September 24, 2012 by Delterius
Suen Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 All the characters should be voiced by Stephen Russell. He is amazing: Fun Tribute To Stephen Russell I've come to burn your kingdom down
Tauron Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 It doesnt have to be full voiced at all. Just start of dialogue, so you get the "vibe" sort of. 1
