    Well, if it's a guy in his late 30's or 40's, they could have a 20-something kid.

    i could see 40s and 50s, but 30s is a bit young. But then aerosmith did that in his crazy video with his 15(?) year old daughter.

    maid is a safe bet, and maids are always sexy :)

    @Bjjorick That's why I specified late 30's.

    I think there should be a character portrait based on me. Simply add a mustache and hood to my portrait. At least make me an NPC named the Legendary Nancy Buttpeach, master thief.

    @TrentOster: I believe it to be unlikely that this request will succeed, but I will try it anyways:

    Is there a chance that samples of the new voice sets be released prior to the game's release on 09/18? I know that I speak for others when I say that I am interested in hearing them.
  • PhillipDaiglePhillipDaigle Member Posts: 654
    We're hoping to do exactly that.

    @NancyButtPeach Hmm. Kevin Michael Richardson (Savervok's voice) does appear in IWD1, and I believe he does one of the male PC/NPC voices. It's not identical to Sarevok, but close. That said, you could always port in Sarevok's soundset from TOB for your PC.

    As for British voice sets, I would support that wholeheartedly. One of the best parts of the Fable games was the regional accents, even if they didn't neccessarily correspond with an ingame region.

    At uni I lived with a Yorkshireman, a Welshman, a Liverpudlian, a Bristolian (which gets a bit westcoutry at times) and another Londoner. Some of our mates were from East Anglia and Newcastle so we had just about every English region covered (plus Wales).

    We've announced Mark Meer is one of the voice Actors we've used for new characters and new sound sets.

    Sweet. I look forward to hearing that one. @TrentOster will these carry over into BG2:EE? Also, are you considering adding more for BG2:EE?

    According to a comment from this video, Mark Meer should be the guy who says: "There's no reason to be concerned. The fate of this fool has been sealed."

    It does sound like him. Can't wait to hear his lines in the new release.

    Though I'm wondering. Was that little plot hole ever explained or is it just said to be puppets of Melissan?

    Been wondering the same.

    FACT TIME.

    Kevin Michael Richardson is the voice of Cleveland Junior in The Cleveland Show AND the voice of the principal in American Dad!
  • brynbryn Member Posts: 36
    It'd be cool if the new voices were distinctly different like regional accents, for example Irish, Welsh, Scottish, queens english, cockney, yorkshire... can you tell I'm English?

    Pretty sure he does the redneck neighbour in Cleveland Show as well. Probably the additional voices as well. He's pretty good.

    Though speaking of American Dad. I would love to see a Sarevok reference with KMR doing the voice again. American Dad has done a few fantasy/rpg gaming jokes on that show, even having most of an episode based around Steve's WoW-esque game (along with different art direction for scenes in-game).

    I wouldn't mind, but if they did I'd appreciate it if they were done by people who either can actually do the accents or are Scottish or English, Welsh etc. Less of the mockney like that guy in BG2 who kept saying "coo". That gets annoying.

    I loved that guy!!! Coo!

    One of the voice sets sitting around is "Western Cowgirl"

    It's so rad

    Ha!

    She was painted from a reference photo of a friend of Phil's.

    This is where I learn not to make too many jokes about having the hots for NPCs based on their portraits...
    I should be careful too. xD

    Mark Meer should voice something along the lines of "Hello, I'm Gorion's Ward and this is my favorite shop in Baldur's Gate." :D

    I like this, but there should be an evil version as well "Hello, I'm a Bhaalspawn and this is my favorite shop in Baldur's Gate. Shop here or else..."

  • AndreaColomboAndreaColombo Member Posts: 5,533
    OMG Baldur's Gate ingame cheap marketing spots :D
  • WardWard Member Posts: 1,305
    @PhillipDaigle You're going to include it, right buddy old' pal of mine? You and me, we go way back. Do us a favour yeah?
  • reedmilfamreedmilfam Member Posts: 2,808
    I want the "You must gather your party" voice!
  • reedmilfamreedmilfam Member Posts: 2,808
    Oh. I'd also like Sharwyn (NwN) as a voice set. Perfect for a rogue : Done, and done!

    Wasn't good at making her survivable, as I didn't understand bards much (as in how to get the best of them). I'm learning, though :D
  • XzarXzar Member Posts: 215
    Mark and a character who should have middle-eastern accent? Well, lets see how this turns out...
