okay, i feel bad - i take my back my comment about americans. i didn't really mean it - seriously, America is obviously an incredibly diverse country, with many different voices. My favourite musicians - pavement, Sonic Youth, Built to Spill, et al - all Americans. And Noam Chomsky - the most inspiring scientist ever - an American!!!
BUT - there is a frightening degree of indoctrination apparent in that country (and my own - Australia)......
anyway - getting off topic. see you at the bar, Remus. 100 gold if you help me out.
Thanks for thinking twice about those comments. I was really offended at first. America has it's share of bad people, just like every single other country on this planet. We aren't perfect, and we don't presume to be. Many Americans are overly cocky in some ways, but it's just talk. Without our allies we are nothing. England and Germany are amoung our most important allies. No matter what is said or done, there will always be differences between nations. It's really ignorant to claim an entire nation is a certain way because of the acts or comments of a few. Everyday American soldiers in Iraq are dying now, because we refuse to deliberately attack innocent people just because of the acts of a few. Just because some Iraqies are choosing to become suicide bombers, it doesn't mean all of them should be punished for it. My brother is an E5 currently stationed in Iraq...
I'll stop straying off topic here:
The biggest voice change that bothered me was Diego. I said this before in another post, but I felt like Diego had become a close friend in the original Gothic. Now, in Gothic 2 I feel like I don't even know him anymore. I really hope they get the original voice actor for Diego back, for Gothic 3. Other than that, it would be nice if they had more money to spend on more voice actors, but it's understandable if they don't. I'd rather have a lot of NPCs with similar voices, than have only a few NPCs with different voices. Other than the Diego thing, the dragon voices are probably the only other voices that I was particularly unhappy with.

In the German version, Diego's voice was the same (if I recall correctly) as in G1 - still his personality had noticeably changed.

Actually it seems in Gothic 2 that the nameless hero is not really a close friend to anyone... I'm curious to play Gothic 1 soon, so I can see what you guys are all talking about with Diego being a "close friend" as well as the others... You have to admit though, people like Gorn and Lee don't do anything for the nameless hero in G2, so normally there'd be no reason for the Hero to help them - but the hero knows them from G1, so he helps. |
