draft1983 Posted September 24, 2012 Author Posted September 24, 2012 It doesnt have to be full voiced at all. Just start of dialogue, so you get the "vibe" sort of. i agree, bg2 was a good mix
Lexx Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 I demand Felicia Day to be in this production. Voicing all the roles. Felicia Day should do all sounds in the game with her voice. Like opening a door or chest, walking over pavement, swinging a sword, etc. "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."
Meshugger Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 That guy from police academy should do all the voices, and the effects. Hell, he would probably do them all in one session. "Some men see things as they are and say why?""I dream things that never were and say why not?"- George Bernard Shaw"Hope in reality is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man."- Friedrich Nietzsche "The amount of energy necessary to refute bull**** is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it." - Some guy
Tale Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 I demand Felicia Day to be in this production. Voicing all the roles. Felicia Day should do all sounds in the game with her voice. Like opening a door or chest, walking over pavement, swinging a sword, etc. Off-topic, but Half-Life 2 has a very cool mod where a guy did this, voiced every sound effect. It turns out better than you'd expect. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Scryer Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 Get Sean Connery. Failing that, get the Sean Connery sounding guy that narrated Majesty.
Gorth Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 David Warner... Wouldn't mind seeing Sara Kestelman (Kreia) do a return to voice acting “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice.” - Albert Einstein
The Sharmat Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 There's no point in even suggesting Jennifer Hale because her inclusion is mandated by universal constants on par with the speed of light. 1
Oerwinde Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Christopher Lambert should voice a faction leader. You could probably get him for a box of oreos these days. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.
HansKrSG Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 I am with the "get someone who fits the roles" and "don't use money on celebrities" -crowd. If Melissa Disney works well for a character that is important enough to have spoken lines, then why not, if not, there is no reason to make a character that fits her voice, just to get her voice into the game. 1
The Sharmat Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 I agree. Martin Sheen did a wonderful job in Mass Effect. He's a wonderful actor. But there are people just as good that would cost far less. And people that are inferior but are not thousands of dollars less skilled. Not to denigrate Sheen. He's an extremely talented actor and people of his caliber are rare. But there's a ****load of actors and actresses out there, which means there's a decent amount of extraordinarily talented people by virtue of sheer numbers.
KhaineGB Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Jennifer Hale would be great. I loved her work in Mass Effect. Too expensive though. Since this is essentially an "Indie" game (as it's not going through a major publisher), I would love to see some unknown Voice Actors... if Obsidian choose to use any, of course.
fkldnhlsdngsfnhlsndlg Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 (edited) I demand Felicia Day to be in this production. Voicing all the roles. Only if it involves a scintillating romance with a poorly-rendered 3D harlequin version of her and her clones. And Jessica Chobot. Edited September 25, 2012 by sea
Flying Magician Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Don't forget about Mark Meer voicing the main character. Preferably also with some background homosexual romance. GOTY 2013.
Humanoid Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 In the spirit of the other desires listed in this thread, I want my player character to be voiced, and by voiced I mean shouted, by Klaus Kinski. 1 L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G
FlintlockJazz Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 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. Oh hell yes, I get so fed up with hearing Claudia Black in everything now, and when I hear that 'so-and-so has Bob voicing their character!!!' I'm like "So that's less money for the actual game then..." I liked Imoen though, didn't like the 'break the cutie' they did to her in BG2 as it made her teen wangsty at points, but always kept her around in my playthoughs.

Since this is essentially an "Indie" game (as it's not going through a major publisher), I would love to see some unknown Voice Actors... if Obsidian choose to use any, of course. I find it hard to believe she's that expensive given how prolific she is. And as I understand it pure voice actors are more poorly paid than screen actors in general.
Sistergoldring Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 Come on if your going for names, where's Patrick Stewart? He should voice everyone always, including the women! 1 The Divine Marshmallow shall succour the souls of the Righteous with his sweetness while the Faithless writhe in the molten syrup of his wrath.
Krios Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 Morrigan fan here, please engage Claudia for some voice work. She will be awesome as a villianess! I like Imoen too. I would like to see some of the voice talent in the old games return for this, a reunion? I think that is unlikely to happen, but wouldn't it be awesome if we can gather the voice talents of those people again and for many of us, it will be a blast from the past. A possible stretch goal?
Goilveig Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 Gilbert Gottfried is the only voice actor you need.
dlux Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 Gilbert Gottfried voices the King... ahahaha ^^
diablo169 Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 (edited) Voices should be cast based on what the audio casting director wants and feels fits the charecter. This isnt Baldurs Gate, and good god Imoen was annoying. O_o Edited September 30, 2012 by diablo169
jarpie Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 I wouldn't want -any- voice acting on this one, would take too much from the budget, and if they do, just a first line or so from dialogue with -unknown- but good voiceactors. Anyone who' has at least some name would probably take too much. 3
