in Icewind Dale: Enhanced Edition
Hear! Hear!



So, Mark Meer + a robe = Baeloth, I think.

The first idea that came to my mind when I read it was whether it was all about the Adventure Y or even Z already. It could be the Adventure Y I thought: maybe during a playthrough the Devs had seen a few lines that should had been added and or additionally voiced over.

But then I read this:



And it has hit me llike a lightning! Mark Meer in a robe and IWD:EE writers are editing (obviously the dialogue lines and phrases they wrote) due to what Mark is telling them....

Baeloth in IWD:EE?!!!!

Of course, maybe Mark Meer just voices some other character in IWD:EE but it does still mean we'll have a brand new quest in this game or at least a cameo or an Easter Egg :))

I'm so excited with the news of Mark Meer being involved into IWD:EE! The amount of information about IWD:EE is so little that this news is HUGE!

Maybe the fact that IWD:EE writers are still editing things means we have to wait longer but the idea of hearing Mark Meer's voice is worth every day of our waiting:) He's such a pro!

    I'm assuming because it means that the extra content are well taken care of with proper voice acting and everything. As far as quest-based content, the only thing really announced is UB which, judging by the mod page does not seem to have anything that "requires" a well-known voice actor.

    This could mean that Beamdog is adding something big in a new kind of quest/mode so people are excited. Or they could simply be adding a few extra voice sets (on PCs or NPCs) which would also be cool.

    You mean the same voice actor over and over? Yeah. I'm stoked.

    Oh thank God.

    Don't get me wrong, he's a good voice actor. But I get tired of them being reused over and over and over...

    Clearly the only thing that could make Icewind Dales better is Commander Shepard.

    ...I should go.
