NPC needs Voice acting !


I hope i can hear some voice on the Npc's . Thank you .
This is will coming in OBT, if i understand correctly.
You may hear Oak voice in Duelist trailer and Nessa voice in witch trailer. (not sure about Nessa, maybe this is Merveil voice. But Oak is great.) :)

The audio guy.
how about doing it like the wing commander saga guys did it? let the community do the work for you:

- post some sentences that need to be spoken
- anyone can record the sentence and send them to you
- you can listen to the samples sent in and see what you do with them....

this worked pretty fine for the wing commander developers :)
We have had LOTS of offers from the community to work on voice acting for us, I love the idea of it but its not an option that we can choose at the moment!

It COULD be something that we look at doing in the future.

(Our main reasons for this is we have already spent money on studio time and auditions, we have many of the voice actors lined up already. The extra work involved for us devs when involving the community is just too much for us currently)

yea thats is really a great news . I hope the Npc voice will be so awesome like Decard Cain "Stay awhile and listen" .
Act 3 Music is Epic ! , can we have an option on the settings so we can choose our favorite music when playing POE ?
The Marauder Intro sounds really good. Tough and manly so how it should be :). The music is great i will love to hear it ingame ;).
Shake me down...not alot people left around...
I agree, this game needs voiced NPCs ... but try no to fall into the same pit, where Diablo 3 fell. Voices of the NPCs in towns are fine, go nuts there. BUT, PLS, do not personalize the game characters. Let the players create their own character "profiles" (if you will) in their heads, or give the characters just a few lines , like in Diablo 2 LoD, when Barbarian entered Blood Moor, he only said "Beware, foul demons and beast!" ... that's OK, but full voice-over like in Diablo 3, where every line of your character gives you impression that he/she is one stuck up over-confident spoiled b**ch/a**hole is really not a way to go. You went through a big trouble (I presume) creating that amazing skill tree, where we as players can go whichever path we want, thus creating and personalizing our characters. Do not spoil this. :) ... I wish you all the best, it looks like there is a hope for ARPGs after all.
