While Alistair had some good lines, in the end I dumped him to the curb for Loghain, the voice fits better with what's going on in the game at that point.



Though my absolute favorite is Oghren, listening to him and Wynn banter on about ale and back alleys makes things a lot more entertaining.

Allister is very good....but Morgane is deliciously nasty....

Gorim/Ohgren. He's voiced by Steve Blum, the same guy who voiced Spike Spiegel from Cowbow Bebop and Mugen from Samurai Champloo.

You guys should look at his list of work.. you'll be amazed at how much anime/video games this guy has done..

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Blum

He played Xiahou Yuan and Sun Jian in DW!

I didnt know that!

After hearing some side talk between Allister and Shale about "if the golem feels pain", I have to give it to those two.

They keep me in stitches and they really sell the dialogue.

I am a little more geared toward the comedic than the dramatic though.



There should be another thread for your dream writers.

Jim Butcher of Dresden Files fame would make the game worth playing just for the dialogue alone.



Not to take anything away from these writers. They did a hella-good job.

I couldn't agree more.  It could be a game about smurfs and I would still buy it if it was written by Jim Butcher

@topic: Morrigan, voiced by Claudia Black.

I loved Leliana's voice. It ft her so well and she came off so sweet and endearing. The same goes for Alistair but he got a bit whiny near the end.

[Vicious172]

The clerk in the Denerium armor shop who is voiced by Cam Clarke, one of my favorites because he also voices liquid snake and ryudo. I lol'd

I loved Morrigan and Loghain, Loghain almost had me convinced! I also really like the voice of the merchant just outside the Deep Roads in Orzammar, he's got this really cute voice.

[catofnine]

Leliana's a dear, but I loved Wynne's VO--her voice acting was spot on. There were times I just wanted to hug her. Close second would have to be Shale...it's a perfect blend of chain smoking raspiness and condescending golem awesomeness.

Simon Templeman, Voice of Loghain, other works include Kain From the Legeacy of Kain series, fantastic voice actor

[Dodco]

A slightly off topic question... but does anyone know who voiced the rather sultry female you could use as a voiceset in Icewind Dale?

And to bring it slightly back on topic, someone mentioned on these forums the other day that some of these Icewind Dale voices and sayings are in DA:O too.

I know Kath Soucie does voices in both games, so perhaps it is her.

Oh and Jim Cummings is also a voice actor on DA:O.

Does anyone know if it was Tim Russ who voiced Zatharian?

I ask because it sounds exactly like him but he isnt credited in the manual...

EDIT:
To the person who asked who Voiced Flemeth - its Kate Mulgrew aka Captain Katheryn "scary ass woman" Janeway from Star Trek Voyager.

Alistair and Morrigan were my favorite VA's

[gfaloola]

I haven't finished the game yet so I probably can't give a cohesive answer but ... oh man, they're all so fantastic and fitting so far. I do have to say Alistair's VA stood out for me but that could very well be biased because I just love that character to bits. In terms of comedic performances I think Alistair and Oghren's VA's take it for me. They're just brilliant. Granted, I haven't gotten to Oghren yet, I'm still taking my time there ... but the youtube videos of him are just priceless.

For some reason I really didn't like Leliana's voice. There was just something very ... strange about it. More likely than not that was on purpose, but nevertheless I found it annoying and tedious to listen to her. I did enjoy all the different accents in the game though - mad props to DA:O for the diversity of the cast. Normally I'm picky and I like hearing only British accents in medieval-ish set games (maybe blame WoW for this ... I haaate the North American NPC voices there) but here I was pleasantly surprised, especially with Oghren.

On that note, I have a soft spot for Zevran's Antonio Banderas-esque voice. It just killed me.

[Badpie]

I thought almost everything was exceptionally done. 

All of the main characters were very honest and real and emotional.  Every single one of them has some comic timing as well.

I really think Steve Valentine as Alistair had the most natural performance.  I feel like he was able to add his own little quirks here and there, not necessarily in specific dialogue, but his intention and delivery of the written lines.  There were lines he had that would have just been okay if not for his unique and awesome delivery.

The name of Sten's VA escapes me but I loved him as well.

And Jon Curry as Zevran.  In the moments where Zevran is being more "real" especially, he's pretty great.

EVERYONE RULED!

Lelianna's voice was a real French accent.  What made it sound fake though was the fact that the actress learned English in London so that the cumulative affect sounds like an English person faking a French accent.  I liked Lelianna's French accent when it was real but too often it felt like it slipped into English (if that makes sense).

I was more talking about Isolde and the Anora's french maid. Their accents were almost too cliche for me. Lelianne's never bothered me though.

[Freestorm Skinn]

Leliana's accent is interesting, because not only is the actress from Paris, but it's also the accent of a French person who learned to speak English from British teachers, so the French part meshed with the British part into a kind of lisp.



If you play Leliana's personal quest, you'll meet someone from Leliana's past, and that character has a much thicker French accent than she does, and doesn't have her lisp.

Marjolane's accent is the harsh stereotypical accent that immediately comes off as FAKE. I mean, jesus, it made my ears bleed. But Leliana's accent is very nice and gentle. I love it.

[Zwierzu85]

I love non-American English S.Templeman overacted x10 and i loved it:D I melted with each Tis' from C. Black. I never herd a french person speaking like C. Kempa and i liked it a lot On the other hand Anora's maid voice....arg must-not-choke-her-to-death and each time Oghred opend his mouth i had that "take out those 88s!" command at the back of my head (played to much Company of heroes with S. Blum in it...)

[RPGmom28]

I sort of assumed that the hodgepodge of British/Spanish/French accents meant that the writers were attempting to make some sort of reference to the unrest of Europe during certain historical periods.

Oh, and I am female, but I found Leliana's voice to be very musical.  I can see why you men find her so alluring.  My little girl likes it when I play Leliana's song from the soundtrack and rock her on my lap.  She says it sounds like a lullabye.
