it's strange how you can definitely hear Commander Shepard, yet its different from his standard voice. Jennifer Hale's voice is practically the same. I think he could've put a little more "him" into Shepard.
you see! this is what i picture when i hear shepherd talk, a guy selling bibles! or a tax collector, or maybe a traffic cop that takes his job way seriously. he would be good in something else but he has no range as a commander. jennifer hale does a way better job, correct me if im wrong, im not hating or spamming i just feel like the actor could be someone with more range and passion (?passion?) well ya know..any feedback is cool.
@jonesyfield ok here's some feedback, that statement you just made was complete and utter nonsense. Some have said Hale overacts, while Meer is a more realistic portrayal of a military leader, I hate when people say one is better than other, they both have their strengths and flaws
@jonesyfield yeah and jennifer hale seems like is playing the role of a model who just took the job of a commanmder! she overracts like she' trying to impress! that doesn't fit the mass effect' commander shepard!
The living bible has reapers in it 0.o Chapter 5 verse 9 The story of the Soldier who banged aliens and fought the reapers. Chapter 6 verse 2..... The Prizzzzzzzzzzzzzzeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ;D
Strange thing is that Shepard really resembles to Jesus in some ways, I mean think about it, he had in ME2: 12 Squadmates, get's killed and get's back to life, he's Shepard, the Shepherd of Humanity-- like Jesus, Lazarus, Legion, Sovereign, etc., ALWAYS spreading "the word" about the Reapers but most never listen, only when it's too late.
@ComrnanderShepard Agreed. He's so understated and dry, however, that I can't blame FemShep fans for mistakenly rating her more apparent emotions as indicative of better talent.
hmmmm i KNOW he is the voice for shepard and all, but his normal voice doesnt sound like shepard..then again i can do different voices myself rather easily that dont sound like my normal voice at all.
He really doesn't sound that much like shephard normally, shephard's voice is more commanding and deep. Still, it's him and he has a pretty sweet voice.
" It was just Old Man McReedy tying to scare people away from his silver mine, and he would've got away with it to if it weren't for that pesky nazarine." sounds like he was high watching Scooby-Doo
Mark Meer is a very good voice actor. I think he suite Male Shepard well especially if he looked default. Mark Meer played also several additional roles in Dragon Age. It may be hard to tell at first but if you listen well.
Hey Mark, I'm sure direction tells you to 'space marine' it up for Commander Shepard, but this acting (albeit in a more gruff tone) would be far more appropriate for him. JUST SAYIN
FUN FACT: Mark Meer did the voices for the Vorcha in Mass Effect. He also did a voice for this guy called Shepard.
