But Draco was a nice dragon. He wouldn't fit into Skyrim very well.

No..not really..
We don't need epic voice actors. Give me one for each gender/race and I'll be happy. I couldn't care less how much money Bethesda spent to get "insert amazing voice actor/actress here", I'd instead care about having a different voice actor for each race instead of the 4 in Oblivion for 10 races.

I think I would prefer Christopher Lee in that capacity, to be honest.

I'm pretty sure there were 13 voice actors in Oblivion, but I agree. I see no point in putting tons of money into a celebrity voice actor when the same amount of money could get several unknown voice actors increasing the variety of dialogue.

Either Sean Connery, Christopher Lee or what's his face who plays Siegfried in the newest Get Smart.

I disagree to a point. I was FAR more compelled in Fallout to continue the main quest because it was Liam Neeson. It really adds a "cool" factor to characters when you relate to them on mutliple levels rather than just some npc. On the other hand, you should not get TOO many big name voice actors because then you run out of funds for getting a variety of actors. I think a healthy mix of both is the best

who said that theres not a single dragon nice... look at akatosh ! derp. actually carefully considering it. he's perfect, he got the dragons voice in dragonheart so amazingly well. why the hell not. but since i bet mr. connery is not a gamer and he's not cheap for hiring. this won't happen =(

I would rather the funding required to hire 1 celebrity voice actor be spent on many voice actors to increase the variety.

At the same time, whenever I hear liam neeson oblivion I just think.... "Time to save Captain Picard!"

I would very much rather have a bevy of unknowns.

As much as I love Sean Connery as an actor, I wouldn't want that Bethesda spends too much funds on a single voice.

No. Save the money for MORE voice actors or other more important things that the money can be spent on.

What he said!

Its quite cinimatic having a famous voice actor... but at the same time, quite lame hearing the same person having a convosation to himself, when one of them is a dark elf and the other is a high elf....
