[demonvipify]

olha sounds like snow white

[Slickdown]

Haha that's reassuring to hear... I thought i was the only having problems with those cursed ladders

[Sadet1991]

at lest Olha's viose isnt a high pitch ear killer

[thedragonb0y]

To tell you the truth, the voice acting isn't quite bad (trust me, I've done it before, it's NOT easy to sound "good").

The real problem is the writing. Non of the characters have anything interesting to say.

I guess some of the execution could need some work, but it isn't that bad.

[Stormraider821]

@thedragonb0y I'm with you.

I've done some short samples of voice acting before, and hell yeah it's really hard.

But one thing I noticed about people is that is strangely at times, when they aren't trying they can do real talented voices, but when you ask them to try...*ugh*...just horrible.

[thedragonb0y]

@Stormraider821 One thing voice actors need to remember is that they need to SPEAK, not READ. ;]

[Stormraider821]

@thedragonb0y And your point about telling me is...basically to show off right?

I already know that. I did say I did voice acting before as well. You don't need to tell me something so obvious.

[Stormraider821]

@thedragonb0y Fine, but next time no need to post something obvious. It's annoying to some people.

[thedragonb0y]

@Stormraider821 Not sure what's so obvious about it. What I meant was most people have a problem with voice acting in terms of "reading it like your learning English". Where they are being monotone or speaking without emotion. Hence the difference between speaking and reading.

It's a big problem and a good thing to remember. I'm not teaching, I just stated it because I can and it bothers me a lot. Nothing wrong in doing so.

So forgive my previous backlash. I get angry too easy.

[Stormraider821]

@thedragonb0y Meh, I'm at fault too. I get angry easily because I can never manage to get the right voices for guys.

The people around me keep saying I'm suited to doing a girl's voice. Since they say that most of my good voice acting represents a girl or so.

I just found it offensive or so.

Sorry, I know you didn't mean to do so, so it was mostly my fault, I'm still a bit bitter when reminded of voice acting.

[HolYAngeL998]

adol christin!

[Eliskor]

Oh. my. god. this game seriously promotes racism. "EWW AN ERESIAN. GET OUT!! GET OUTTTTTTTTTTT!!!" "Stay away from the Eresian!"

[GrowlanserSlayn]

The voice acting isn't too bad. I mean, I really like Olha's voice. But some people *coughTerracough* should never speak another word ever again.

[voltex12345]

DAMN I WANT THIS GAME!!!

[XoRandomGuyoX]

What accent is Olha supposed to be using? At times I almost want to say it throws in an Irish flourish, but then wavers into something else.

Also, what is up with all the slightly-altered ancient world names? Romuns, Canaan Islands, Eresians, etc.

[mrLillipad]

why do some of the minor characters have better voice acting than main characters?

[thedragonb0y]

@mrLillipad Because they have less lines

[ACrum615]

pretty funny dude

[Nightsaber100]

what, did you not want to say " STAY AWAY FROM THE SUMMONER!" in that old voice?

[ACrum615]

@Nightsaber100 lol i actually remember that.

[brawltime44]

No offence to Ubisoft, but the drunkard has the best voice acting in the game XD

[777IV]

Wow, it's so strange how voice acting can target age groups like that. If not for the voices, this game looks decent. The art reminds me of Fire Emblem. Nice work Quady =]

[AustinAngelus723]

rofl your dialog is way better than the games "so you like to play castlevania" XD

[randomretardedpeanut]

you know this seems like chrono cross how the demi-humans hate the humans lol XD

[Chaosman3865]

You can admit that Olha sounds cute. XD!

[cdslim2]

thats old bald guy sounds like a cuban guy i know

[Hypersqurell]

agggggggggh, ......12 year old voice actors...... pain.

[SakaiXYuji]

i like the music.... :] BUT THE FREAKIN VOICES!!!~~~ THE VOICESSSSSS

[WhoblehwahV2]

"So you like to play castlevania....." lol.

The kid voices in this game hurt my ears. So annoying.

[LPThera]

Hey, I don't mind if you skip over the dialog. ^.^ I'm sitting here falling asleep while she talks on.. and on.. *hee*

[Valis77]

sleepyhead ^_^

[Dragonite33]

The music isn't half bad?

the music PWNZ!

[Valis77]

man oh man the Voice acting is horrid but i heard worse.

[FunETman]

Yeah it's a game called Chaos Wars.

[Valis77]

???? ok

[Risingdead1234]

I agree with Zombie, if you would talk and chime in at moments of the dialogue when its not that good it would give the cutscene a different tone than normal. Then again im just typeing out loud.

[Catman2030]

That was a pretty loud "Uh..."

[zombierobopirate]

id rather you actually talk while they talk =X

long dialog isnt great w/LPs anyway

[NIMPAK1]

The old man at 9:45 kinda sound like Quady in his Quad-Fu videos. No offence.

[DragonEmpressSeishin]

So are all the male characters in this game, save for Adol, huge muscle-bound dudes while the girls are all small, skinny and have the voices of grade-schoolers?

[badog99999]

i get an odd feeling the that priestress is gonna be kidnapped and will be used to cause a dark being to appear if im right cookie plz!
