Voice actor clarification...

Post » Fri Dec 16, 2011 11:20 pm

I've read in places that Claudia Christian voices more than just Legate Rikke, characters like Aela the Huntress, and also that Christopher Plummer voices more than just Arngeir. What's the truth of the matter?

Aela does sound a lot like Claudia, and I've also heard similar voices for characters of the "nord female of martial capability" archetype; one I just encountered is Brina Merelis, a retired Legion legate in Dawnstar. But like I said, the only role I've seen confirmed to be her is Rikke.

So what's the truth of the matter? Please don't just repeat the rumor as I've already posted it here, confirm or debunk it on good authority.

IMDB is user-editable.

I swore I heard that Grey DeLise was a VA for this, but she's not. Someone could just as well mistake a sound-alike for Claudia, and all I've seen from verifiable sources is that she voiced Rikke.

IMDB is not like wikipedia where anyone can edit anything at any time for any reason, it is run off of submissions which are then checked and verified. Pre-release, IMDB will accept submissions based on reported rumors (such as articles from newspapers and other websites), mark them as such, and then edit them accordingly once confirmations or denials come into play. Post-release, IMDB is the most accurate wesite as far as cast and crew information goes.

I think its dang neat that Terry Carter is getting so many high profile voice acting games. Hopefully they do a well made BSG MMO (no, the browser game doesnt qualify imo) an they all get voice acting jobs an do it right


Im sorry Im tired, its 4 am lol I dont tend to make sense this early

I'd love to know what women do the voices of Lydia, Muiri and Nocturnal.

Anyone know?

Beside the http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1814884/fullcredits#cast, there's a good way to know more: play the credits when you launch the game. :wink_smile:

Bethesda confirmed Claudia does Legate Rikke in a press release, so that's absolutely certain. I'm inclined to believe the IMDB as well. I was thinking both Aela and Arriana sounded like her from the first times I heard them speak.

I've watched the B5 series several times, so VERY familiar with Claudia's voice (her character was my favorite of the whole series).

Who cares?

I personally have not noticed anything from these over-priced voice actors, haven't really even notice any difference between them and any one else they might have used.

Voice Over work is way too overated and way too much money is spent on it to really care who voices who.
