His voice sounded alot deeper than I expected, I was shocked when I realized he didn't have a high pitched voice like I had assumed the whole time. Gotta love the way he holds a staff

Well, whoever he sounds like; his voice doesn't fit a giganticly eared midget with dreadlocks.

I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. A tiny little Asura comes along with a voice as deep as my elementalist's.

Knock the 's' off

... I'm pretty damn glad he ain't got some high-pitch squeak for a voice.
Maybe I'll think about heloing the Asura after all...

Regardless... that S most definitely IS there, making it a rather different word to what it would be without it. Furthermore, the word WITH the S is far older than the term that lacks it...

Heck... that is almost as bad as when Phantasy Star Online censored the word "Saturday" because it had "turd" in the middle. ¬_¬



Excuse my momentarily slipping off topic.
In any case... if the pictures I've seen of him so far indicate, a deep voice isn't really all that appropriate for him, irrespective of whether he is meant to be a "Brain" clone or not. If they wanted something like that then they should have given him that same wrinkled face.

Wow, I totally thought he sounded like Brain. Never thought it was really him though. That's so cool!

Actually, the one with the S is not older. >.>


I was half expecting Vekk to sound more like Golem from LotR, but I'm kinda glad he doesn't.

Dude thats the whole point. Brain didn't sound like your typical cartoon rat/mouse either. I'm just glad they finally got some one good to do the voice acting at least for one character.
