As much as I love the game, it's true. The accents in that part of the game, ar every, very obviously faked, and very poorly at that. The rest of the game's voice-acting is awesome, though.Starnerf said:
The voice-acting isn't that bad (well, some of it is), but it's mostly because they had one actor per gender of each race (actually, I think all the different elves had the same two actors), and pretty much no unique NPC voices except for the two Septim characters. It was probably a combination of a limited budget and limited time. Before Oblivion came out, Bethesda were not very well known and were not a big development studio (they're still tiny by today's standards), and when you're paying your actors per session or per hour, sometimes you have to take a bad performance or two, because you just can't afford to re-record literally tens of thousands of lines over and over.The_Deleted said:
Was waiting for someone to do this. Two Worlds was billed as being an Oblivion killer by... well, just the developers and nobody else. Due to budget constraints, and perhaps a misconception of their own talents, they decided to voice the game themselves... bad move. Every single character interaction in the game as a result is downright hilarious.Ionami said:

Resi 1 voice acting - Oh my God.

Emotions. As an actor you should have them.
honourable mention
Psychic Detective for the 3DO. The whole thing was a live action path selection adventure (which I never completed) but it played like a bad David Lynch film where your character always got arrested at a party.
However, the acting in Oblivion is actually pretty well done. Come on man, Patrick Stewart and Sean Bean! And that guy who plays Mankor Camoran. He's famous too. Although I don't remember his name. (Ironically)The_Deleted said:
And as for the regular NPC actors, they're not winning any Oscars, but they are still decent voice actors. I mean, could YOU do any better? (I'm just waiting for you to say yes, by the way.)
Grandia II's was absolute shite. Most of the game just had subtitles with no voices, then they'd randomly stick some in in some cut-scenes.
Also, "Its me! Mario!" from the N64 made me want to smash his big nose in.

sheogorath.
it's a testament to how bad the comic acting is when the lines are funnier when you have the volume down and read the subtitles.
I mean come on, the guy who did the voice for that character should never be allowed near a recording booth again. completely ruined the shivering isles for me with his piss poor attempt at some kind of scottish/irish 'humourous' accent

I think that is actually good voice acting as the point was to make those beggers annoying .. and they were!! after two meetings i would do anything to avoid those beggers or failing that scare them off.Dkozza said:
