Returning Voices

Post » Tue Dec 01, 2015 7:52 pm

What character voices did you like in previous Fallouts and would like to make a return? Not as the same character but as a new one.

Dr. Borous-Didn't like OWB, but he had a great projecting voice.

President John Henry Eden-His can go from soothing to rousing.

Jericho-It was just cool.

Dr. Lesko-Classic egghead voice.

Biwwy-I wiked how he tawlked.

Vera Keyes-Sounded seductive even when not trying.

Kaneo Takarada-Not from Fallout, but I really liked his voice and personality. He would probably be more suited for a southern Fallout though.

I want Keith Szarabajka back. He voiced Joshua Graham and loads of Dunmer in Skyrim. That guy should've got the part of VA for the male protagonist. He's got such an awesome voice.

Or we could have someone like Lance Henriksen. Someone with a real iconic voice.

Characters are usually interesting dependent on their writing, which shows with a good VA. A boring character will still sound boring with a good voice behind them, hence why the favourite characters that are remembered are almost always the ones with prime placement in the story.

And I hated Biwwy. Kids in general tbh. They put them in the game, make them irritating, but make them immortal as well. Thanks, Bethesda.

Love love love the voice of Desmond Lockheart, so I would like for that guy to come back (given that Desmond himself said he would head for the commonwealth is a good sign we may see him again).

The female ghoul voices in F3 were really good!

Dean Domino!

Male raider voice (Jericho)

Female raider voice

Joshua Graham's voice actor (also played some of the Male Dunmer in Skyrim, I think) *edit* ok so this guy, Keith Szarabajka. Thanks to above post for providing his name.

Anyone from New Vegas.

We'll probably be getting the same generic cast from F3 again. They used Paul Eilding again but made him use his worst voice possible.

In the F4 presentation video, he used the same voice he used for ALL old male NPCs in F3.

New Vegas had just as many generic voice actors as Fallout 3, and more of them were just completely boring. I'll give NV props for picking a great cast for companions, and main quest related characters, but almost everyone else was pretty subpar.

Hopefully Laura Bailey (Christine Royce, Vera Keyes) is back on the voice cast. And since it's a Bethesda game, we'll definitely be seeing Wes Johnson (Mr. Burke) in some role.

The first time I heard Desmond's voice, I was overjoyed; it's the same voice actor (Jeff Baker) as the male Dunmer in Morrowind. Hearing that voice swearing me out as a bitter Ghoul was awesome. He almost makes me want Bethesda to choose a canon story for Fallout 3, so that they can justify having him come back despite how we could kill him in Point Lookout.

They did? That's great news. The Mr. Gutsys sounded castrated in NV.

I thought Wil Wheaton did a good job as VA for robobrains.

I would love to see him play a role in the game. Probably my all time favorite voice actor.

Besides that however, I couldn't imagine a Bethesda game these days that doesn't have Wes Johnson playing some kind of role.

The voice for Codsworth was the same fellow that did the Mr Handy's in FO3, tbh I don't know about Protectrons and the others yet.

Bring back Richard Dean Anderson as someone. The guy has a voice so distinct you can tell its him from Continents away.

Bethesda is fired if Wes Johnson isn't returning.

He was great as Joshua Graham but his dunmer voice made me cringe sometimes - they should've got an English voice actor for that one

I need Mike Rosson and Wes Johnson back or I will cry.

The Vault Tec salesguy from the demo...isn't that the same guy who voices Nathan from FO3?

Fallout 3:

Craig Sechler - Crazy Wolfgang, Harkness, Sergeant Benjamin Montgomery (Operation Anchorage)

Wes Johnson - Fawkes, Mr. Burke

Fallout New Vegas: Really just about any/all of the New Vegas voice actors/actresses.

Peter Renaday - No Bark Noonen

Keith Szarabajka - Joshua Graham (Honest Hearts)

Danny Trejo - Raul

Laura Bailey - (Female Courier) Julie Farkas, Christine Royce (Dead Money)

edit: I did not realize Will Wheaton did the robobrains. I see he also was our alter ego in Old World Blues - some very funny stuff there.

Was playing Operation Anchorage last night and forgot all about General Chase. He has a cool voice as well.
