We use both Irish and Welsh accents for the Dalish. Honestly, if we stuck to Welsh only we'd have a really small pool to draw from.

Ginny McSwain (Los Angeles VO Direction) Very pleased to see that McSwain is involved again. She's one of the best in the business.


Isn't she, though? I adore her. Image IPB

Would you be willing to clear up the Anders/Greg Ellis confusion? He seemed to have confirmed he was playing Anders on his facebook page but he's not specifically credited for Anders...


He's not voicing Anders. Possibly we did some recording with him and then decided against using it? I'm not sure. Voice actors aren't always aware of how their stuff is going to be used, which is why you can't always go by them with regards to who's voicing whom in the final game.

Thanks for clearing that up. May I ask why the change in voice actor?


I can't answer that without spoiling, actually. Suffice it to say that, in the end, we had to make a decision.

p.s. Did I mention how happy I am that you requested Eve Myles and got her for Merrill? :D


Me too! It's one of those rare cases where the voice actor takes a character and turns it into something special. I will take Merrill along in my party just to listen to her talk.

FFS, Bioware. Really? Why not just create a new character altogether? 


Possibly because we have an excellent reason to use this character? Something you may not even know about, yet? That and it's possible for a character to have changed while still being recognizeable as the person you knew? He's not there simply for fan service, after all.

Normally I'm one of the people who advocates waiting and seeing, but in this case I think I'm just going to pretend this guy is Anders' long lost evil twin and that the real Anders is off doing his own thing. My brain will break less that way.


To me, it seems a pretty far cry to suggest that Anders is so different when you haven't seen him... or because his character progressed in a way that wasn't what you wanted. Or based on the assumption that a change in VA completely destroys that character, even though the writers felt the new VA retained the essence of the character we felt was necessary.

But knock yourself out, if that's what you prefer. Long lost evil twin it is. Image IPB
