Lynda Carter

Personally, I think Lynda Carter is a pretty horrible voice actor, in Oblivion she really started to get on my nerves.
What do you guys think about her returning for skyrim?

I don't much care whether she's doing voice work in Skyrim or not.

I never had any problem with her, or with any of the female voice actors. The only voice actor I didn't like in Oblivion was http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCHreRrNZUM&feature=results_video&playnext=1&list=PLEBB95F0F212B90F5

I think her voice alongside the new voices will add some more flavour and nostalgia to the mix.

I think she's fine. But a female orc really should have a more rough voice, don't you think?

I'm not saying anything bad because she is married to the guy, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_A._Altman, that is the chairman and CEO parent company that technicly owns Bethesda studeo's, ZeniMax Media. So my fingers went numb on this topic of the being a good voice actor or not. :ermm:

Was she the stock high elf female? If so, please keep her out... not to be rude but it wasn't very enjoyable.

I think she's fine for an elderly, somewhat clueless Imperial.

Hopefully they greatly limit her involvement outside her typecasting.

Why would that matter? It's not like they're going to cancel skyrim to get back at you or something :P

But yeah just checked imdb to see what she voiced and I have to say she did the worst of all the voices. They weren't terrible, but they weren't good either.

I say that just because it's a way to be nice and also the fact that karma can be a real....*sigh*, mean mother (ment to say the b-word). Also, it's kinda clear why she is getting these voice acting jobs at bethesda and why her voice will be in skyrim. :nope:

No she did the Nords and Orcs.

The problem with Oblivion's VA's wasn't necessarily all them; It was their roles. You had Seven people reading out thousands of lines for 10 different races.

Oh, okay. They weren't particularly appealing either, then, but not as bad as the high elf.

I don't know what they were thinking. The VA was fine for the Dunmer females and Dunmer females alone.

I totally agree. I would go so far as to say that the ONLY female voice that sounded decent was the female Dunmer. It sounded more like Morrowind's to me.

The female dunmer was good but I found the imperial female to be pretty good too.

bahhh, her voice is annoying, along with all the other voiceactors in Oblivion, the only descent one was the male nord and Lucian Lachance.

I agree 110%/. And my girlfriend agrees with you 210%. We talk about it whenever the subject of Oblivion voice acting comes up. The fact that she was the voice of an entire gender of a an entire race was bad enough, but some bonehead at Bethesda said well hell, she's the boss's wife, so let's give her TWO races! (Well that wasn't really the reason. Afterall, the same lame tiddly winks fairy-boy did all the voice for all the elves, so that's three to Lynda's two). But anyway, I'm happy Bethesda plans to take their voice acting more seriously this time and hoping Lynda's part will be very small, as in just one character. If she's the voice of the female Nords and/or Orcs again it's really going to svck.
