I just finished the game with the voice-pack installed as well. As one of the voice actors, I wanted to applaud the great performance of the other VA´s in the game <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /happy.gif ALT=":D"> Good job on the directing! My favorite VA was probably Anastasia´s. Sooo sexy <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... s/wink.gif ALT=";)"> °TamTu ''The Father'' Bui° lol.

I feel like such a nerd. This could quite possibly be one of the most exciting moments in my life. I hope that my own release of one of my more recent games will be equally fulfilling to others. <img src="http://www.nancycarterdesign.com/bryce/pimpbot.gif" style="border:0;"/> ---------- <a href="http://www.nancycarterdesign.com/spongefactory/" target="top">Sponge Factory</a>

It takes a while to get used to the voices, at first I didn't think Graham's voice fit, but you get used to it after a while, I just never thought of him with an American accent. I'm about half way through so I haven't heard them all yet, but I think hagatha's voice is quite good, and the underwater voices were good. I'm pleased that there is a good use of different accents, makes it more friendly to people around the world. I didn't think adding voices was necessary to this paerticular game, but it doesn't take anything away from it. Good work

The voice actor who played Graham also voiced him in Sierra's KQ5 and KQ6, so we thought he was the best one to do Graham again. And yep, the voices will take some getting used to. That's always the case with voice-overs coming out after the actual game. (QFG4 for example) <img src="http://members.chello.nl/c.vanempel/Nas ...

I finished it again, I got used to the voices, I Haven't played the voice versions of 5 or 6 so I didn't recognise it. I know Kings Quest is American seeing as it is made by Sierra, but I always imagine Kings etc having a posh English accent, That's just the stereotype. But the acting was done quite well, Hagatha was my favourite.

YES! This is so exciting, Erpy was telling the truth all along, I was sooooo surprised, If I hadn't ran 5 laps in cross country then I proberly would of jumped in the air. Congratulations Tierra, as soon as KQ2 Voice Pack finished downloading I will download KQ2VGA V2.0. <img src="http://users.domaindlx.com/broomie/graham_talking.GIF" style="border:0;"/> <div style="text-align:center">TIERRA!

Personally, I don't see what the great festivity is all about. <img src="http://navynuke.netfirms.com/ezboard/vildern.jpg" style="border:0;"/>

I'd also like to applause the voice actors. I would have much rather it been released with the game, just because it takes some getting used to. I actually started to like connor. But with this voice... shudder. Not poorly acted, just different than I imagined. <img src="http://www.nancycarterdesign.com/bryce/pimpbot.gif" style="border:0;"/> ---------- <a href="http://www.nancycarterdesign.com/spongefactory/" target="top">Sponge Factory</a>

Possum's voice was so cute!!

Troller420 · #11 Post by **Troller420** » Fri Apr 04, 2003 7:51 am

The only criticism I have about the voice acting (sorry to anyone who may be involved in this) is that IMHO the Sharkee king could have sounded a bit more menacing. Without the voice, I always visioned him shouting the whole time and sounding a lot more mad, but that's just my interpretation. Good job on a surprise release, it was unexpected but makes the game a whole lot better.

Why doesn't Hagatha's voice change when she's transformed into the beautiful girl?

The youth potion only works skin deep, as the death message says if you don't take action against her soon enough. "Lose yourself in the music, the moment You own it, you better never let it go You only get one shot; do not miss your chance to blow This opportunity comes once in a lifetime"

How did everyone like the "preview" to the ending song? I think it would have been more of a surprise if left out <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /smile.gif ALT=":)"> <img src="http://www.nancycarterdesign.com/bryce/pimpbot.gif" style="border:0;"/> ---------- <a href="http://www.nancycarterdesign.com/spongefactory/" target="top">Sponge Factory</a>

Yeah, but would you really want Valanice to just say or whisper the words in that scene? That might clash with the music. <img src="http://httpd.chello.nl/c.vanempel/Nashh ...

MusicallyInspired · #16 Post by **MusicallyInspired** » Fri Apr 04, 2003 10:48 am

Actually, I think whispering would have worked.....But I like the singing better anyway so I don't care too much! <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /smile.gif ALT=":)"> <hr /> "Requires MCGA, CGA, VGA, PGA, or TA-RA-RA-BOOMGA!!" -Gary Owens, SQ4 Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub57.ezboard.com/broyalquestfor ... nspired</A> at: 4/4/03 4:48:49 am

I did a few of the voices for the game, and I am loving this voice pack. The Devs did a fantastic job of assembling voices from (literally) around the world, despite some of the problems involved. I'm just glad everyone is enjoying it! Thanks again #1 <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... s/wink.gif ALT=";)">

Haha, seeing that the actual names are in the game credits, seeing you labelling yourself anonymous is a bit ironic. <img src="http://members.chello.nl/c.vanempel/Nas ...

Anonymous Voice Actor 1 · #19 Post by **Anonymous Voice Actor 1** » Sat Apr 05, 2003 12:36 am

You put my name in the credits?! Well thanks, but that ruins the entire joke! oh well, I guess now I can add it to my resume!

Anonymous Voice Actor #1! No...you must keep up with the whole anonymous persona--just change your name to Anonymous Game Actor (fill in any other number) and don't tell them which voices you did, and you can regain your anonyminity... Thanks for your fantastic contributions...and yep, you can put them on your resume<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /smile.gif ALT=":)"> Can't wait to hear you on TV and the radio someday in the near future, I'm sure... I'll write you an email soon...gotta get back to work for the moment though<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /smile.gif ALT=":)"> Anonymous game Developer #1 PS. Did you think that any of the characters I did sounded like me?? Like, could you recognize the voice??

Vildern · #21 Post by **Vildern** » Sat Apr 05, 2003 1:33 pm

He already said what voices he had done in my thread, and his name is shown in the credits. So there's no secret. <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... s/wink.gif ALT=";)"> <img src="http://navynuke.netfirms.com/ezboard/vildern.jpg" style="border:0;"/>

Oh YES! I was a bit frustrated when I discovered the voice pack and all since I was out in the country and couldn't take down two huge files with a modem but then I went home and replayed the whole thing with the pack installed! It was outstanding all the way through.. Graham, merchant, Valanice, Hagatha, pumpkins, cloud spirit were my favorite voices.. Without the voice pack the game was so professional that you couldn't tell it was a fan production, with the voice pack you could fool just anybody that this is an official Sierra release. I fooled my friends with that which was very funny. <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /happy.gif ALT=":D"> You Tierra guys just don't know when to quit. I hope you never learn <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /laugh.gif ALT=":lol">

I think its better than anything that Sierra has produced! I sincerely mean that, and Sierra has made some of the best adventuregames ever, in my mind anyway. We are all very lucky to be able to play these remakes, but when will you make your on game? /Mason Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub57.ezboard.com/broyalquestfor ... gmason>the sniggering mason</A> at: 4/6/03 3:07:31 pm

Some ideas are being passed around for our own game, but it would still take a long time for such a project to get out of the planning-stage. <img src="http://httpd.chello.nl/c.vanempel/Nashs ...

I found the libarian's voice to be a little...young for an old person...nevertheless, the voice pack is a great addition! <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /smile.gif ALT=":)"> <img src="http://www.southwest.com.au/~jackie/signature.JPG" style="border:0;"/>
