Cipherthe3vil Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Farengar has to be one of the worst voice-overs ever, is he? Can anyone think of anyone worse? I'm sure out of Skyrim there is bound to be a worse one somewhere, but I mean whithin Skyrim. And maybe out as a side-venture. I ask because I just realized just how incredibly dull and off key it is. He sounds like whoever voiced it did it on the first time without ever reading the script before and they decided to use that first go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MightyZ0G Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I know what you mean, but the voice that gets me is Belethor (and all the other characters voiced by the same actor).you have a couple of conversations with Farengar and never hear him talk again.half the population of Skyrim seem to be voiced by Belethor and they talk to you if you just walk past them.

Bhanqwa Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Huh, I like both voices and I like Belethor.Farengar, not so much.Not a fan of Esbern, too many fluids in his mouth. :yucky: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scot Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I noticed too, farengar voice over just seems like a guy reading a script for the fist time, plus the whole conversation is stupid, "so the Jarl says you have use to me, ah yes he must be refering to the dragon research" -.- all this after the jarl tell him that he found somebody that could help with his dragon project.

Cynster Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I thought that was his accent.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrettM Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Does Farengar even have a voice actor? To me he sounds like something out of a text-to-speech program. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TripleSixes Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Bethesda just has very few voice actors that they want to use for some reason, same for oblivion. Kinda sad... I mean, they are all good at doing it, but it gets old when every other male is belethor and every other female is gurdur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seviraph Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Off the top of my head, Tulius, his voice changed drastically at one point while talking which didn't sound so nice to me (like it went all high pitch and stuff which sounded way out of place) And maybe even Ulfric, or maybe that's just my personal opinion(didn't like how he sounded) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevkiev Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Farengar is actually done by the same guy who does Festus Krex, who's voice acting I thought was pretty good. Never really had an opionion either way on Farengar, maybe 'cuz I talk to him so little. I was surprised to learn that the guy who does Belathor (and so many others) also does Barbas the dog. (And that Lynda Carter, wonder woman from TV days gone by, does Azura and others.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
