Voice "actors"

Since Bethesda decided to make Fallout 3, we figured we might as well have a forum about it.

Voice "actors"

Post by Splatterpope »

They're going to be all over the place, commenting on the radscorpion they saw yesterday over and over. So, given the choice, which 6 voice actors would you put in F3?

Well Oblivion had Cpt. Picard/Prof. X, Wonder Woman, Aragorn, and General Zod. At the very least FO3 should Shatner, Adam West, Lindsay "Bionicwoman" Wagner, and the dude that did Cobra Commander. (Shit I missed the LOTR demographic).

Richard Simons should do all of the voice acting.




Or better yet…

Instead of getting six high profile actors and paying them $70,000.00 each, Beth should hire 600 low profile actors and pay them $700.00 each.

Or even better yet!!!

Beth should do most of the dialog in complex text-dialog-trees instead of a billion simple voice dialogs giving you reply option consisting of (Vault?/Rumors?)

But that's silly Jesus! Everyone knows you're supposed to imagine the dialogue, and indeed, all of the bits of the game that make it good.

Exactly what I was thinking. Who gives a shit about celebrity voices in a game? Get a bunch of randoms to do the voices for a bunch of randoms.

Adolf Hitler would be cool as the voice of the main character.

Try the checked pattern from JA: Deadly Games PL version. Take three voice actors and just make them pitch and othervise change their voice when pretending to be other people. 100% satisfaction or kick in the balls!

Obviously we need a big time sports star in there. Who was that awesome actor/athelete/role-model in that movie about the genie? Oh yeah...

There should be absolutely no voice acting in the game. Everything should be 100% text. You should have to read everything. You should have to put a voice to the character in your head. I say this because 95% of all voice acting in computer and video games sucks balls (somewhat less on PCs than on consoles, but why take that chance?).

But maybe we can have Pat Stewart doing the opening v.o. instead of Ron Perlman. That would really rawk.

John DiMaggio... again.

He played BENDER.

Therefore he rules!

And he voiced the JUGGERNAUT!
