Re: About voice actors...
Posted By: Frankie	Date: 1/2/10 11:39 a.m.
In Response To: About voice actors... (Avateur) : I have mixed feelings on the matter. I really didn't like the lack of Steve : Downes in The Package, and although Cortana's voice in this wasn't bad in : the least, it still wasn't Jen Taylor. I also fully understand that due to : the spread out times and locations of recording sessions it would have : been crazy to fly out Steve Downes or others over and over again to do the : recording, so they just didn't do it. : But at the same time, it almost gives a clear sign that 343 is absolutely not : Bungie, and even though this is still Halo and (thus far) it's being : handled pretty magnificently by 343, it's still not Halo. And thus we have : a paradox. It's all Halo, but when viewing canon and the attachment to the : characters as coming almost exclusively from the video games for the vast : majority of Halo fans who apparently have never read the novels, and from : the hardcore of the hardcore who have their love grounded in the : characters and their depictions from the games, the lack of the original : voice actors is somewhat unsettling. And I know how I worded that whole : sentence, but the "unsettling" bit is my own opinion about : myself, not an attempt at describing how the vast majority of all people : (or anyone else) thinks. : I'm so ready for Halo to be over and for Bungie to move on, but then I don't : hear the voices in Legends and get upset that it's even slightly different : from the Halo I know and love. Damned mixed emotions. We're using Jen elsewhere, in a project where it was much easier to wrangle. And Steve too.
