PrimeHydra Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 (edited) I'm sure I'm preaching to the choir with you guys, but it needs to be said: The superb voice acting made the Baldur's Gate 2 characters really come to life. Jon Irenicus, Minsc, Aerie, Jaheira...I remember that dialog to this day. Please don't make your voice talent an afterthought. I suspect you already intend to make it awesome, but just in case you weren't? Don't make Pillars of Eternity sound like Divinity: Original Sin. That is all.

Grand_Commander13 Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 I think Obsidian is a little bit past the phase of work where they're getting their voiceovers done. With planning them, at the very least. In a long shot though, if there's still time, look up the lady who did and just have her do something like that. Best Shoulder Devil NA.

PrimeHydra Posted August 20, 2014 Author Posted August 20, 2014 In the Giant Bomb interview from a few weeks ago, they said they haven't even gotten to the voiceover part of development. Here's hoping they find talent on the level of David Warner. 1 Ask a fish head Anything you want to They won't answer (They can't talk)
Death Machine Miyagi Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 It wouldn't bother me very much if there were no voice acting at all. I'd rather have no voice acting at all than some of the crap I've heard in other games. So yes, if you're not going to have much voice acting, make sure what you do have doesn't make me burst out laughing in the middle of what's supposed to be a serious scene.

archangel979 Posted August 20, 2014 Posted August 20, 2014 Get that girl that did Skyrim songs on youtube to do some song for a tavern, she has amazing voice. I am sure someone here knows what she is called. 1

Malekith Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Generaly Obsidian nails the voice acting, so i wouldn't worry on that department. And the voice over Lines in this game will be so few compaired to their other games that the can focus even more on quality.
Vaalac Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 Get that girl that did Skyrim songs on youtube to do some song for a tavern, she has amazing voice. I am sure someone here knows what she is called. Malukah . Don't know her real name but it must not be hard to contact her with this one, since she has her youtube channel. About voice acting, I was wondering, is there any plan to "sing" the chanter song when he's fighting ? It would add to much to the class !
I Roll 20 Posted August 21, 2014 Posted August 21, 2014 (edited) Hey, I was just looking at some beta videos made by Qiushui and I noticed that when you clicked on the townsfolk, you don't sound bites other than floating texts. Come on, no "Yer a long-tongued lout, ain't ya?" or "Alms! Alms for the poor!"? Edited August 21, 2014 by I Roll 20
