Waste of money

If the dragons are indeed Akaviri - which would imply a lot of Asian influences and accents - get Norio Wakamoto. Now.

"ALL HEIL AKAVIIIIIIR!"

Dominic West.

Lucy Lawless. :wink_smile:

She's doing voice acting for a Game Bethesda is publishing, so why not just get her for this?

But Alan Rickman would be great, too.

Mel Gibson.

You know you would love him as a drunken nord for a side quest.

A lot of voice actors don't want to get paid. I mean i wouldnt? And if for example Phil Collins was a huge Elder Scrolls fan i think he do that for free.

Damn, Phil Collins would be awesome in elder scrolls.

What, a quest where you have to recover his missing antisemitic heirloom and then watch him threaten to beat his ex-wife with it? oo:

No, if they are serious about recreating a proper Icelandic-Nordic vibe in-game they need to hire....Bjork! Imagine her voicing some end-of-dungeon boss, perhaps a frosty ice maiden who has lured some hapless Nords down into her icy cavern through her siren calls, turning them all into Thralls ....

lol, Bj?rk would be awesome for all kinds of characters.

What he said^

It is very important to not have all dunmers sound the same. And all bosmers. It creeps me out that I can tell the race of a person blind-folded. We need variation in voices, and that can be done without the expense of famous voice actors (and get less-famous talented voice actors for the same cost). After all, why do I care if Patrick Stewart voice acted Uriel Septim, if I can't tell his voice from another no-name voice actors? I am sure there are a ton of talented voice actors who can do a better and more fabulous job!

As long as he was not on drums

That barely even makes sense. Besides, BRIAN BLESSED would probably do it for a most reasonable fee. After all, TomTom agreed to acquire him as a celebrity SatNav voice after 20,000+ people petitioned for it. BRIAN BLESSED himself even helped make the ad for the campaign without any promise of compensation. He's just that awesome.

As for reasons why we need BRIAN BLESSED in particular:

Thu'um. Think about it. BRIAN BLESSED is probably the only man in real life whose voice is more powerful than certain caliber guns.

BRIAN BLESSED has made three attempts at scaling Everest. They actually have to clear the mountain for his ascent since avalanches have a tendency to occur when he's around. Who else could adequately serve as the strongest Greybeard on High Hrothgar?

BRIAN BLESSED has hiked over the Arctic Ice Cap and made it to the North Pole. If, for instance, you needed somebody that's been to Atmora, why not somebody that got there in real life. Besides, some of the Tongues use Thu'um as a form of tranport, casting a shout and appearing where it lands. BRIAN BLESSED could do this daily, but he's such an awesome guy that he walks, since sudden changes in an area's ambient awesomeness could cause global destruction.

When the last Dragonborn Son of Skyrim, Talos Stormcrown, went to High Hrothgar, the world shook when the Greybeards spoke his name. The same thing happens anytime BRIAN BLESSED says somebody's name to get their attention.

BRIAN BLESSED could probably eat a cow in one swallow. The only other thing that can do this are dragons. Based on the trailer, we could use the equalizer.

It would be awesome to see Patrick Stewart and Sean Bean voiceover in some form.

no more voice actors needed.

DOVAHKIIN'S ALIVE?!

David Wenham and Anthony Hopkins would be only "famous" actors I can think of off the top of my head that I would like to see. As for voice actors, I'd love to see (or should I say hear) people like Dee Bradly Baker, James Arnold Taylor, and Tom Kane to do some voices. They're all fairly versatile, and since they're already primarily/exclusively voice actors they'll be a bit more affordable than some big-wig Hollywood actor.

I believe Bethesda should focus less on having one or two 'ZOMG I KNOW THAT GUY' voice actors and focus more having a diverse range of actors. I've got the voices for each race from Oblivion recognized completely, which I shouldn't.
Though if Bethesda were to get a few well-known actors, I highly recommend Jeremy Irons. He was good in Kingdom of Heaven, and his voice is perfect for 'ye' olden era work.

Samuel L. Jackson is a must.

In my original recommendation for BRIAN BLESSED, I even suggested that be one of the lines.

Shame they couldn't use that in the KotN:

"THE DIVINE CRUSADER"S ALIVE?!"

Leonardo Di Caprio.

I was watching the Eleventh Hour at school, and his voice made me immediately think 'Wood Elf''

I don't want famous voice actors. I want the money you have to pay them to be spent on local talent, and more of it. More variety = better product.

No one, thank you.

Its a shame how OB lost half its budget on Sean Bean, and Patrick Stewart. *wonders the true epic potential the game could have had* I really do not want to see this happen with Skyrim. js
