Oh, so it was a synthesized voice? I know people had been wondering after PAX about the voice actor ("Is that Mark Meer," etc.) but I wasn't sure if it had been addressed.

The PAX demo didn't sound like a synthesised voice, but perhaps they recorded the dialogue specially for that mission, and other sections of the game are still using placeholder voices.

(It would make sense that with a year or more to go, many things still haven't been written, let alone recorded?)

I'm guessing the game is going to get A LOT of polishing, considering we're like 10ish months away from launch and they are already at this stage


After the final act of ME3 was so badly bungled BioWare is probably making sure they have a solid, logical story before they start beautifying the game and tightening everything else up.

ElitePinecone - That would make sense. I guess the demo was what I thought of since that's the only thing we've seen. I kind of forgot that they might have recorded him for the demo, but are still using a Roboquisitor elsewhere.

"These two are our first Dragon Age items, and we look forward to bringing you more as Dragon Age Inquisition approaches".

So... more items in 2013.

The narrator of this nature show on crocodiles sounds EXACTLY like our synthesized Inquisitor voice for Dragon Age #DAI

David Attenborough semi-confirmed?


Hmmm? David Attenborough? Who are you talking about?

Oh, god I hope not.
His voice has a weird intonation that is way too high.
I needs me a deep voice.

Mr. Gaider just added a part 5 to his "nuts and bolts of game writing" series. Not really Twitter, but since I linked to the first 4 parts, here's the 5th, this time with more talk about budget and cuts.

Thanks for linking those Kallinachus.  I think that series should educate people a bit more about writing for games and all the vast challenges that you face.  Some people harp about BioWare not taking things into account (see the example of the mage hawke/templar quest that had to be cut) thinking it is just 'lazy writing'.  Until someone sits down at the computer using a toolset such as NWN or the dragon age one and does some writing they can't realize what game writers face.

No call or email, so I guess I didn't get in to the playtest. Ah well. That's probably best for my bank account. Still, 4-ish hour bus ride each way woulda been worth it.

You know, it must be the craziest feeling, knowing people are willing to brave 4 hour bus rides to help out on your project with no expectation of pay.

EDIT: That is absolutely not a jab at you. I would have done the same for sure.


I know I am validly crazy.  :P:P

PS - according to the tweets it looks like at least three of the DAI folks are in Vancouver today for the EA Canada DAI testing. Maybe they will tweet about things??? I will keep an eye out and report if something juicy pops up!

Aaryn just tweeted this as well, but the PAX demo had a recorded voice. When referring to the Synthesized voice he was referring to the text to speech during development before lines are properly recorded.

(Note: The voice is often unintentionally hilarious)
