“You are correct.  That is not my voice you heard in the Mass
Effect 3 trailer. As you know, I had a blast “giving voice” to Mordin in
Mass Effect 2 and would love to reprise my role in ME3. However, as of
this writing, I have not recorded anything for ME3 nor have I signed a
contract to do so”.


At this stage it should be clear, BioWare, please tell us that he's reprising his role.

Voice acting is usually one of the first things you start and one of the last things you finish in a game. There's still 3 months, so take it easy.

There's still 3 months for him to do VA-ing for Mordin.

I'll be very pissy if he doesn't reprise his role tbqh. While Meer's Mordin was surprisingly good an imitation... it's just not the real deal! =(

I'm pretty sure he'll come back in fact I wouldn't be surprise if he has already signed a contract by now.

Wasn't his voice in the beta already? Certainly looked like it and not Mark Meer like in the events demo.

We should contact him and ask him over and over until he feels inclined to say "no" or "no comment". No comment means yes! =D

i hope too they're using Mordin's original voice actor.

imagine some other character with a different voice, they wouldn't be the same anymore.

Actually for most games the VA recordings are one of the very last things they do. There's still plenty of time for him to do it although if they end up choosing someone else I won't be too mad just somewhat indifferent. I mean it's not like they're replacing a unique voice like Wrex, Thane, etc. Hell even Jim Cummings does Wreav as the alternative and he's amazing.

I saw a clip of some leaked footage a couple of weeks ago, and it certainly sounded like the original actor.

The beta wasn't even fully voiced.  A lot of Mordin's dialogue was generic, male text-to-speech.  The rest wasn't even pitch-shifted for the most part, so you'd have to compare it to Beattie's natural sound.

Actually, the non-pitch-shifted stuff sounded a lot like Mordin, so I wouldn't be surprised if Beattie's back.

OK, not cool.  I say, time to pester the devs on twitter: "Will Beattie be back?  If not why not? #wtfareyouthinkinghesawesome"

Since they haven't swapped voice actors for other characters, I don't see why it would be any different for Mordin.

He might have asked for more money.
