Voice Actors in Rome I should be in sequel

[Hayro252]

So what do you think?

[The Useless Member]

I doubt if they were the same from S1 to S2.

I'd rather have better ones than the old ones.

[TheRomanRuler]

Agree with Hayro. I love that centurion (as a friend!) and faction leader.

[SonOfCrusader76]

Voice actors, and composer too.

[-Concrete-]

Obviously not.

[Julio-Claudian]

What would be great with the voices would be Latin responses etc.

[Himster]

Australians? They were good, but isn't this one being made in the UK?

[karlyp123]

Why obviously. They've (apparently) re-hired Jeff Van Dyck and if he is doing it then he will almost bring in his missus again to do the, might I say, delightful singing. I hope that Centurion voice actor gets a part again for Rome 2: Total War

[MasterBigAb]

I personally prefer the voice actors of older games....I prefer them over the ones since ETW and newer...

I found the voice actors in Empire to be really funny - the woman on the campaign map's delivery of her lines was spot on - with adlibbed sighs and gasps and things like that (yes) and the battlemap advisor was hilariously patronising.

[Himster]

Well Jeff Van Dyke (and his wife) is great.
But, given the size of the franchise, surely there's a wider selection pool now, more people must be clambering to take part in this project.......... let some new blood get a chance.

[anandus]

Oh, please no!
Nothing as immersive-breaking as Romans that speak English with a fat American accent.

I hope they'll use proper Latin-/Greek-/Celtic-/etc-sounding units!

[SonOfCrusader76]

There's one tiny problem with that - many of the languages aren't actually in use any more. And I don't think the general's speeches have anywhere near the impact if you're reading what he's saying, as opposed to hearing it.

Who says the V/As were Australians?

Ya that's the problem.
But it could be made an option for Latin and Greek speaking factions etc.

[Himster]

Who says the V/As were Australians?

1. Their accents.
2. The country in which rome total war was made.

[Cathedralsquares]

I swear to god if I have to hear the Roman battlefield announcer's voice one more time I'm going to stab Jack Lusted.

[Asuryan]

I just need the guy who did the Romans, Barbarians & Persians. I don't really care much of the rest.

But they better write epic & interesting battle speeches. I feel that battle speeches in M2 & Shogun 2 custom battles are crap compared to RTW where both custom battles & campaigns are great.

The Roman General sounded more American to me than Australian.

[Irenicus]

"THE DAY IS OUUUUUURS!"

Yeah, probably not.

[atheniandp]

How about the use of more authentic languages? I actually disliked the voices in RTW because they were too comical. I liked the voice actor from Medieval 1 Total War and Brian Blessed.
