And that coughing, for the most part, sounded kinda forced....
Eh. Was pretty good, I guess.
Had no idea they were making a new farcry.
If you need someone to cough, then have a smoke. Voice actors need to be willing to go above and beyond to hit the mark.
The voice coach for Pixar's The Incredibles made the actor for Dash do laps of the studio to get him to actually be out of breath for scenes where Dash was running. You can't fake being out of breath.
Just like this, faking coughing will sound just like that, fake.
Maybe I'm spoiled these days, having grown up with games like Resident Evil you'd think I'd have more tolerance for bad voice acting... But I don't. It kills the immersion. In cases where the VA is bad, I'd rather them just use text to be honest.
Also, I thought it was nice of Ubisoft to think of the needs of the hearing impaired. If the protagonist hadn't dictated everything he was doing aloud, the blind would have had no idea what was going on.
Joking aside, I'm sure this is just a hype-block in the Game Advertisement Playset, but I just find it hard to get excited about anything with this kind of focus anymore. The market is so saturated with it that it oozes into novel, comic book, and animated feature territory as well. I heard Far Cry 2 was good, but I can't play it on consoles because of that fucking accelerating cross hair (goddamn it, is it too hard to ask for the option to have my reticle go exactly where I want it at the speed I want it to without it shooting around the screen like grandma in her Buick?). I should pick it up on PC now, but it'd probably fade into the ether that is my backlog.
"Drake! Drake? DRAAAAAKE!"
And the typical damsel in distress? I guess we were warned of the tropes!
Oh well, not utterly awful by any means and I might pick it up in a bargain bin at some point, lord knows it looks like that type of game that will be 'on offer' forever.
I feel like somewhere between the two extremes would be more enjoyable..
baader-meinhof i wonder?
