The Ghostly Hero is epic. I don't know if good or bad epic.

Prophicies:

Best: The Lich. Great voice actting for the character.
Worst: Glint. For a several thousand year old dragon thats still going strong, you'd think her voice wouldn't sound like an eighty year old grand mother.

Factions:

Best:
Worst:

Nightfall:

Best:
Morgahn.
Worst: Varesh, she sounded like she was trying to sound imperious by deepening her voice, but it just came across as... weird...

EotN:

Best: All of them. The voice actting in that game was outstanding.
Worst: None that I can think of.

Glint's voice is wierd and craggily, but it does sound what a dragon should sound like (in my opinion).

A guild joke of ours, whenever anyone mentions togo, factions, vizunah, (you get the idea) someone on vent always goes


"AH MHENLO IT WAS GOOD OF YOU TO COME."
-Master Togo.

Prophecies - I thought all of the voice overs were well done. I didn't have a problem with any of them.

Factions - lol. I didn't like majority of the voices. Togo's was by far the worst there.

Nightfall - All of the voice actiing was superb. No complaints here.

Gwen - Loved all the VAs except for the guy doing Jalis Ironhammer. I could not understand half the lines he spoke. Quite annoying. X_x

I have to say that Nightfall voice acting is excellent- I have nothing to complain about and some voices are simply great. I think the best one is Morgahn's voice. I can't think of a bad one right now.

Factions, on the other side, is simply terrible. All the voices are pathetic, the peak being Togo. Shiro is equally lame- sounds like a battered warrior who took too many hits to the head.

Prophecies is ok, without standing out. I like Ghostly Hero's voice a bit, but I'm annoyed by that of the Vizier and of Glint. I expected a little more from a dragon.

I'm just gonna point out some other nice voices I like and hate - not worthy enough to be listed in my first post, but still.

For Prophecies, I liked Confessor Dorian. Despite his fagginess and really scrawny legs that I doubt could support his fatass body, he has a nice booming and noble-sounding voice, good for a leader.

For Factions, one think I remember is both the Luxons and Kurzicks said the opposing Faction's name oddly. In Fort Aspenwood, the guy in the cinematic kept saying "the LLLLLUUUUXXXXXXXXXOOONNNNZZZZZZZZZ", like Daffy Duck's "you're despiccable" but way too overdone. At the end of Gyala Hatchery, Argo keeps going "the KURzicks" they may be curs in your eyes, Argo, but it's still a corny pun to use.

For Nightfall, one thing that ticked me off was Varesh. Her voice was okay, but whenever she shouted "ABADDON!" or "NIGHTFALL IS COMING!" she sounded like one of those fat African American (no hostility intended here) women who is trying to sing on karaoke night.

For Eye of the North, Ogden had a fitting voice for a dwarf. Livia's voice was seductive, which is good as I wouldn't like her seductive looks to suddenly be broken by a horrible voice.

The ghost from the desert missions in prophecies makes me want to bleed from the ears, and Danika from factions makes me want to kill myself just for being female...

Best: Vekk
Worst: Vizier Khilbron. WTF is that accent? The guy looks the closest to Middle Eastern, but his accent is a cross between Indian and Greek. FAIL.

I never had anything against the Ghostly Hero. He sounds like Akama from WarCraft III: The Frozen Throne (yes you're supposed to like WC3, it's WoW you want to kill).

Though then again, when you consider he was a great warrior in life, I cannot imagine living Turai with that voice.

Maybe he got ghostly bronchitis.

I have 3 winners for best voice

Tahlkora - Kari Wahlgren

Anyone who can make me prefer an english version of an anime just because of her voice is just full of grade A pure win (in this case FLCL, she does Haruko Haruhara's voice)

Male Lead Character/Justiciar Hablion - Steven Blum

Anyone who can give Vincent Valentine a voice that good and make a video game characters sound truly heroic "You have exactly ten seconds to explain yourselves before we run you through" from The Wilds cut scene before you rescue the chosen gives me a lovely feeling of awesome, deserved everyones vote.

Vekk - Maurice LaMarche

The Brain's voice actor in a massive eyed, egotistical genius....again
?????
PROFIT!

Worst Voices (I'm not going into voice actors...they don't deserve the publicity)

Varesh - when she shouts "ABBADON!" at the end of Consulate Docks......i can think of less traumatic prostate exams

Kuunavang ....fail

Danika ...because not even hell is that cruel
