Why the call for voice actors?

Submitted by TopHatBlues on

First off I'd like to say that the project is looking good, congrats on the work so far.

OK, I see from the videos that you've put out that you are asking for peeps for VA...Why would you need this when the voice files are already in the game? It seems a tad redundant, not to mention a lot of unnecessary work duplicating something like this.. Also can I say that if you do end up changing the voices from the original game, I personally think it's going to lose A LOT of the feel of what made it the stand out game it is.

I for one, and I know others feeling the same way, was rather disappointed when the dunmer voices changed from the raspy, gravelly one's in MW, to the normal sounding 'people' in Skyrim.. and for you to change it further, and with amateurs no less when you have the originals just sitting waiting to be utilised, seems such a waste... and to be perfectly straight with you, I would be so put off being even further removed from the feel from the original experience, that I'm not sure I would want to bother playing with a third overall voice set to represent the dumner and that's not even mentioning the rest of the voice( s ).

In this regards I am a tad disappointed, however I will keep an eye on this project for the time being in the hopes that the situation changes.

We're keeping the raspy ones from Morrowind, and we need voice actors because other than greetings and goodbyes there was no voice acting in Morrowind. To bring Morrowind into the year of 2013 and please current generation gamers we need voice acting.

So it's more addition and expansion than replacement?

Yeah exactly, and of course as no1 said it will be optional to download but definitely worth it.

Appart from the odd voice that we feel necessary, it will indeed always be kept separated. 2 reasons.

1/ People like it without voice: nostalgia, more imagination, what have you. All good reasons

2/ this is another donwload that can be quite large when we're advanced enough.
