I was inclined to agree with you, odubya23, until I watched some of the other videos posted in this thread. Compared to them, Sean Bean and Patrick Stewart were fucking brilliant.Mutie said:I though they were the only two good things about that game. The other three voice actors were terrible!!odubya23 said:I thought Sean Bean was horrible in Oblivion. Sure, he squeezed it out when Martin had to give a speech, or had to be frightened of a book, but for the money I'm sure Bethesda had to spend, the role could've been done better for less money with a less prestigeous actor.
Don't even get me started on that turd of a job Patrick Stewart phoned-in and got an award for. When I think about the sacrifices that other, less important departments at Bethesda had to make, departments such as programing, art, story, and game play, it's hard not to wonder how much better Oblivion might've been if they hadn't felt compelled to pay Hollywood actors Hollywood prices for sub-par, tired performances.

Oblivion failed more in the quantity of voice actors versus the quality.
Seconded. I'm going to laugh all day because of that.Atticus113 said:No way guys, this is the worst ever!

This, right here. I didn't think any voice acting could be worse than Mega Man 8 until I started playing the original Resident Evil. I guess good voice acting wasn't a top priority for Capcom in the PS1 days.Snork Maiden said:Original Resident Evil had some quality about it.
I'm also going to have to say this, I know laughing is hard to do loud when it's fake, but come on! They were being payed!Jaranja said:"

Makes me wanna play Grandia, and perhaps resident evil, but the controls to RE are so bad it makes me cry more than the voice acting.RaigairTheOmnipotent said:this:
