Title: Awesome voices for SC2!
Post by: Dthunk on June 15, 2011, 03:15:14 pm
Greetings, Star Control lovers!

I'm an old player: in 1990, I used to play Star Control (Syreen gains full crew!  :D ), fighting in melee with my bro but regreting we could not change the teams.
In 1992, when SC2 was released, I jumped on it and enjoyed this fabulous adventure game, and then played melee over and over again!
In 2008, I discovered the Ur-Quan Masters project and rejoiced: I could play SC again! But I played on a Mac, so i didn't heard the character's voices.
Today, I installed it on a PC and tried... It's awesome! For the moment, I just heard Hayes, Ur-Quan's drone, Argarak and Fwiffo's voices, but I found them perfect! It add a whole new dimension to the game - I didn't think it was possible - and I will play the adventure game again (although I know all the plots).
Thanks again to all the passionate people that worked for this.

Friendly,
Dthunk

I personally enjoyed a lot the Kzer-za and Kohr-ah voices... The voice addition really adds a lot of depth to this game :-)

Many people don't like the voices. I only have to mute the Utwig's voice, myself

I think most of the voices are exceptional, excluding the Utwig for obvious reasons. If given the choice, I would rather kill an Utwig on sight than listen to that awful whine.

Eh, I grew up on those voices so I have no complaints at all.
Although when I first played it the Umgah creeped me out so much that I would do everything in my power to avoid them.

I don't like the Orz voice because it ruins their mysteriousness and alienness when you hear an ordinary human voice.

The Orz voice is anything but that of an ordinary human. Explain your reasoning!

I always thought they sounded like Rupaul if he was on Valium
