guys, just google "youtube to mp3"

 

There's tons of free software to convert this into audio files.

 

OP, I'd gush over your voice, but I haven't the opportunity to listen yet. Definitely will given the comments. I really want to listen to this now, but I think I'll save it for my car ride into work.

 

I hope I make the car-ride relaxing or enjoyable!

I'll be posting this as a big single file that I'm going to record in a single sitting, as I believe someone pointed out that the canon pronunciation of "Brennokovic" is "Bren-a-ko-vic", so I want to fix that.

Okay, so I caved in and listened to the first track. This is really good! Your voice is perfect!

 

As an additional note, I usually loathe audio books that have movie accompaniments. Usually, the music are very over the top and out of place. But the music you chose is perfect and actually fits the experience. I didn't think it was possible. Good job on that.

Thank you for the feedback!

I changed tack a bit with the chapters after the first, only having an intro and an outro musical accompaniment since I realised that the first choice of music throughout the first chapter was indeed a good fit, but I didn't have the resources or expertise to find music that so well fit the following chapters.

 

I'd be curious to hear what you or anyone else think about the music (or lack thereof) in the later chapters.

Honestly, I really enjoyed having the music all the way through in the first one. 

 

It sounds like music from DA2, is that true? Or does it just sound similar?

It was music from the DA: Inquisition Soundtrack actually, so probably same composer or similar theme for sure.

 

Might be tricky but I could look into attempting to find matching music for the other chapters. I think it would get boring maybe for people to hear the same piece of music the whole way through all nine chapters? Maybe? Not sure...

Not sure on that either since ultimately you are listening to the dialogue more than the music... I don't know.

Okay, I finally listened to them all, and my only complaint is they are too short... and you only have two chapters left. :(

Thank you though! That's a good complaint in my books :P

 

Yeah only two chapters left; I'm hoping that there will be more chapters in DLC? It doesn't feel "finished" is all I'll say.

And he uses people he's meet in real life for concepts for his characters.

Wonderful as always. I listened to these again on my way to work. I wish we had a whole book so I could stretch these out for my trip to Ohio! Fingers crossed for more chapters with a DLC.

I love the way you have enacted the story and kept the voices consistent with the various factions in the DA universe.

Merril (or what's her name in Varric's universe?) is fantastic.

Thank you!

I've always loved accents and voices and doing these has been a real treat!

Thank you, as always! :)

I hope so to, I really really want there to be more game, more adventure, and more Hard in Hightown codex entries!!

Thank you very much :) The Welsh accent (or the closest butchering I was able to manage! :P  ) is one of the most fun accents to do ^_^ As someone pointed out earlier in the thread, I do love that Varric has put representations of all the people from DA2 in his book, Maysie (Merril) is fun! I hope her character shows up in more codex entries!

Hopefully BioWare go ahead and get us some DLC that contains new chapters! 

 

 

Hope you folks like what I've done so far. I'll be creating a full recording of it soon!

You're very welcome :)

Sorry to hear you were having a bad night, I'm glad that something I made helped change that for the better even a little :)
