Dear @elindos
Finally I had a chance to read your post from A to Z.... and I decided not only to share this publication with several most active PH community members, but I also will spent few bucks and play that game myself :)
It seems that 2325 would be even worse than 2020 :P
I wonder who came up with all that story-line. Was that you @elindos?
Did you guys consider recording some youtube video, with someone reading that story in the background (with a nice manly voice)? I would love to be able to close my eyes and listen to this story ... it would probably help me trigger immagination more than reading does.
Post upvoted and resteemed.
Have a great day ahead buddy,
Yours, Piotr
I do write these things; the setting of eXode is inspiring enough! There is also a novel project.
Interesting suggestion too! And I can already think of one member of our community who has a calm and interesting voice.
Who is that person @elindos?
@SlabakBG was mentioned several times as having a good and very clean voice :D ... hello here Slabak ! (since I tagged you maybe you'll come up here!)
But personally, if I were to do a company video about the story in 2325, it would need to be an emotional voice, so it engages another field too and needs to work on it. It could also actually be a female voice. But for the subjects of corporate and political corruption, it's true a male voice can fit too. This is an odd thing to conclude but I feel like it is.
I would not say the same about tasking a captain with saving people, for which I believe a female voice has better layers of emotions for our players (I am just thinking out loud here, not really pushing this as any argument).
Some years ago I worked with a sound engineer who recorded sound actors (such as Stefan, I would gladly share his last name too but don't know his situation and don't want him bothered; he was the german voice in Gears of War).
Stefan really committed something huge and it was a great experience to me to work with such "AAA skilled creative persons" who could also work for small studios, just like that.
So yes, it is very interesting to push 2325 in creative art and sounds. Definitely planned.
Thanks for the shout-out Commander! I can try my hand at different voices, but I believe it's a job best left for the professionals. Ideally we can get behind with a wider team, a Narrator, a Male lead, Female lead and a "Robot voice" or 2 is a good cast for any audiobook novella :)
EDIT: The Narrator voice actor from Darkest Dungeon can be approached to narrate eXode as well :) Just saying
