Max Von Sydow was a big win right off the bat, it showed us how serious they are about this game (as I'm sure he doesn't come cheap).

Wouldn't mind more of Michael Dorn and Felicia Day - they both did very well in FNV and have a knack for game VO.

I would Really like a wide variety of VO, where in TES IV it seemed like they used the same 5 people for everything, FNV took it to a whole new level. I hope this trend continues.

David Bowie should voice some random high elf mysticism trainer living out in a shack in the wild.

yesh, most people seem put off that they constantly use famous voice overs...and its a fact that they have since Morrowind and will probably continue to do so with Max von Sydow vociing the teaser - just as Patrick Stewart voiced the teaser to Oblivion. So some of you are just going to haveto accept it cuz it looks like its already happening.

Mads Mikkelsen - he played Le Chiffe in Casino Royale and check him out in Valhalla Rising - ultra cool.

Max Von Sydow - what's to say - an absolute legend who also happens to have one incredibly silky voice.

Stellan Skarsgard - watch Insomnia (no not the Christopher Nolan remake) the original Norwegian.

Dennis Storhoi - Many (only) know him from the Antonio Banderas movie 'The 13th Warrior'. Pity too, damn fine actor.

Looks like Max Von Sydow is definitely in for the full game, not just the trailer, if Wikipedia is to be believed......

He's cool, but he's got like...1 line in Valhalla rising and a horrible accent in Casino Royale. Not a good voice actor IMO.

I's prefer Asbj?rn Riis (Danish wrestler/actor, played a viking in 13th warrior) as he has a nice deep voice and good nordic accent.

Actors other than Yuri Lowenthal would be nice. Don't get me wrong, I love the guy, but Fallout: New Vegas overused him.

I remember in the new trailer that it was a new actor. "His name is Duuba King! Dragonporm!"

Also, Samuel.L Jackson would be a great addition to the game. He can voice the redguard males

"Enough is enough. I have had it with these ******** dragons in my ********Skyrim!"

I think no famous people would be nice. It might end up like Fallout 3 where Liam Neeson's role was small, his performance forgettable, his presence gimicky, and overall probably not worth his price tag (which I assume was pretty big)

On the other hand, New Vegas had decently famous people and it went overall much better, and Sean Bean in Oblivion was pretty good too. It could really go either way.

However, I feel that you could probably get some pretty good no-name voice actors for cheaper, and then get more. I mean, Oblivion had such few voice actors, and you got kind of sick of those same voices. Instead of 1 famous person you could probably get some more smaller actors to play smaller roles, and not have two NPCs with the same voice talking to each other (or at least have it happen less often)

How about going the opposite direction and having the beggars voiced by real homeless wino's? Just don't let the unions know!

I'd lose the voice acting completely (or confine it to voice-over for the into movie). It would make modding the game easier, as you'd not be trying to match a voice when you add dialog to an existing character.

Samuel L Jackson would be sick voicing the Male Redguards but I don't see that happening.

I'm not really sure who I would tab I don't think they'll pick Patrick Stewart again so

I'm going to go out on a limb here and ask that we get the best voice in all the world:

BRIAN BLESSED!!!!!

Think of the awesome lines we'd get:

"Dovahkiin's Alive!"
"First Dragon Wing, DIIIIIIIVVEE!!!"
"IS THERE ANYONE IN SKYRIM THAT HAS NOT SLEPT WITH MY DAUGHTER?!?!?"
"Chiswick, Fresh DRAGONS!"
