Narrator

You're right Jeysie, a narrator adds a lot, but it does depend on the voice actor. The KQ5 guy was a little bland and the GK1 actress slowed down the game with her tone.
Gary Owens was so perfect for the Space Quest games. That wit fit right in.
I suppose it would be too much to have a narrator of that type for KQ9...
That would be a lot of talking.

I would love to have a narrated game, and it seems very possible, as long as they can find someone good enough.

Yonkey should be narrator or Alex

, cos Jeysie said that you have a good voice

koko_99_2001 · May 24, 2004, 05:29:35 AM

No offense Alex, b/c I am in love with your accent...but it also makes it a little difficult for us Americans to understand...so from the voices I've heard...I think it should be Neil. Let us girls swoon through the whole game!

Hee. As much as I'd love to hear Yonkey's secsay voice throughout the game... the narrator's already been cast. But it's OK, you'll love his voice too.

Peace & Luv, Liz

A SPOILER, thats very nice of you Jeysie

B'rrr · May 24, 2004, 11:05:10 AM

not really a spoiler, cuz it is already been told before (by Jeysie) it would be a spoiler if she would send some recorded voice of the narrator ; )

KatieHal · May 24, 2004, 12:52:42 PM

Haha, that's no big spoiler.

And the narrator we cast is a very good choice, too!

"Alexander orders the Texas-sized margarita..." heehee

koko_99_2001 · May 24, 2004, 01:07:46 PM

Am I supposed to have any clue what that meant? No? I didn't think so!

Don't forget "Alexander eats the dry cornbread..."!

You guys like torture, don't you?

"Alexander drives his new Mini Cooper"

I obviously don't know the lines

Jeysie · May 24, 2004, 02:31:42 PM

(chuckle) We're not quoting the script... just kooky in-jokes.

Peace & Luv, Liz

Hopefully

But the KQ6 narration is very similar! does this means KQ9 would have the same style of narration?

Jeysie · May 24, 2004, 04:29:56 PM

I'd say it's somewhat similar, from what I've seen.

In fact, the guy they cast has a somewhat similar voice quality to the KQ6 narrator, IMHO.

And apologies to Koko... usually I'm the *last* person to find out *everything*, so I gotta get my kicks where I can.

Peace & Luv, Liz

Yonkey · May 24, 2004, 10:53:43 PM

Hahaha, sorry Koko but I would never want to be a narrator! I'm so sick of my own voice; I'd hate to have millions of others be as well.

And like Jeysie said, the Narrator for kq9's already been cast, but unfortunately I haven't heard any of his stuff yet. $:-\$ *wonders when that Live NYC Auditions video will be made*

koko_99_2001 · May 25, 2004, 05:23:35 AM

Oh well. FYI, Neil, I had already been informed that the narrator was cast, just wasn't told who he was...just thought I'd go along with the post about either you or Alex being the narrator!

Cat

Yonkey · May 25, 2004, 10:06:49 PM

That might be too cruel of a joke to the real narrator.

koko_99_2001 · May 26, 2004, 05:14:21 AM

Ok, ok...fine...*pouts*

Cat

Jeysie · June 22, 2004, 12:37:22 AM

Well, now that this is a separate thread and all...

No joke could possibly be worse than Harrison's bad jokes. Ever.

Fortunately he doesn't get to ad-lib.

Peace & Luv, Liz
