Palawa Joko! His voice was what made me really love the character.

Seconding, thirding, whatever, Zhed Shadowhoof. It still amuses me it's the voice-actor who also did Prince Rurik. "Two legs..." indeed

The character voice for female characters is really good. I love listening to my girls in cutscenes. Magrid is pretty good as well, as is Koss. Generally, the voice-acting in NF was stellar

In Prophecies, I'm a big fan of the Vizier (great voice) and Saidra (great accent).

Factions... Mhenlo and Togo were pretty good. Voices that matched the characters' looks and personalities, imo.

For the next chapter... WTB speaking part for Cynn

1. Palawa Joko. "good to do hero type"
2. Norgu.
3. Myself (My male monk was given a sexy female voice after completion of Harvest Temple).

That happened to my male mezmer once! Still gives me nightmares...

And believe it or not, but the hunger and Aldaris from Starcraft are the same guy!

Zhed / Rurik
Because I allways felt set back to Prince of Persia. Though the lines he had to speak as Rurik were awful.

Well, it is more like you just happen to see him. Main character got no idea who Fortune Teller is other than what happen in realm of torment and that NPC tells to you.

Zhed's voice is my favorite (the famous "2 legs" line had me laughing out loud for quite some time )

A bit off topic but my least favorite are Danika and unfortunately Master Togo (too helium-voiced for me ). When I saw the artwork of Danika , i pictured a smooth or sultry voice...it's like having ice cream with mustard on top...yuck!

If only koss has said this great line

"Freaking Drakes on the Freaking Planes.. I hate them" out loud, I would have given the Best Voice Acting to him!

Margrid (You're charming Koss but I can't spend charming, money please.), that line is cool too.

IS the voice-actress that did Varesh, the same as the one who did Storm from the early 90's X-Men cartoon? I can't remember where but I've definitely heard the voice somewhere.

She is my favorite henchie, yes . I think it'd be cool to have her speak, except if her voice-actress is as mismatched to her personality as Danika's is. In that case, I'll pass :P

"...two legs" just takes the cake imo. And in general, the script and non-visual art direction of nightfall is heads above the 1st two chapters. cut scenes were well done as well - a big improvement on some of the abortions in factions - vizu Vs shiro was awful, no other word for it.

And yes, Steve Blum is a great VA - his Justicar Hablion was suitably imposing/menacing. Which is more than can be said for *coughdanikacough* Ahem. don't worry, as far as I can tell, she dies in Raisu Palace anyway (She doesn't appear in the divine path, none of the allies for that mission do. ^_^ )
