Did not realize Igeyorhm was the twins' mom! Or that Elidibus voiced so many other characters (and wasn't 80 years old with a lifelong smoking habit, LOL), or that Hythlodaeus had another character, either. Well done!
This is a neat idea to catalogue! Has there ever been any information on the people who record the emote voicelines? Like, the sounds us players can make with /yes and /cheer etc.
I'm not sure exactly who they are, but if I remember correctly they were done by Japanese VAs when 2.0 was released, so there's a chance they're some of the credited JP VAs for ARR.
Y'know, that's the second time that's happened, that a clip goes missing from the edit somehow. Except on this occasion, since it was the only one in the Shadowbringers section, I've clearly gone "oh, no ShB clips, I can delete the ShB intro" rather than wondering why it was still there 😅
Personally for a vid like this. I think it could have been better to just list the voice actor directly and then include all the roles they did, instead of listing them by a 'main character' and then show them all, often including mostly... the very character you show. It's just funny when you show Elidibus... voiced Elidibus. Vs. Matt Stokoe, the voice of Elidibus, along with Meffrid and Rasho from stormblood. Or René Zagger, who voiced Emet-Selch. You could have still done the format in this same way, voice actors of the ancients', but its just obvious that the character shown is the voice of the... character shown. rofl.
Before starting this series, I spent some time canvassing opinions on how people would most prefer it to be. They wanted me to: 1. Show the main character the actor plays. 2. Show the character pictures instead of actor pictures/faces. 3. In the case of videos featuring more than one actor, go through it by expansion rather than by voice actor. People had lots of different reasons, but these were the main points that almost everybody agreed on. I'm happy to oblige and do it their way, since it's what the vast majority of people were asking for.
@@thegamesheplays Fair enough. For me I just prefer the voice actors got proper recognition for the amazing work they did and all the roles they got to do that we may not be aware of.
He's incredibly versatile, old Elidibus! I knew him originally from probably the least-Elidibus role it's possible to find 🤣 And you'd be surprised about the unique voices - they don't generally shy away from letting them do a bunch of random NPCs just because they're easy to spot! I tend to find the main villain of an expansion doesn't have any other characters in that expansion (Yotsuyu, Zenos, Emet-Selch) but then it's a free-for-all if they fancy it and are available (suddenly Zenos is also a dockworker, a pirate, a random peasant in the street...)
I mean, wouldn't Fatebreaker be a given, since it's partially based on Thancred and talks exactly like him. 😅 I do hope to see more of these types of videos.
You'd be surprised - there's a voice from the Endwalker patches that's actually listed in the credits, that people still get wrong all the time 😅 I thought it best to be on the safe side and even mention the obvious ones.
Oh no, this is so good! I often do my research online, but it's pretty much impossible to find nameless characters... Please, please, keep this series going!
Thank you! <3 I'm already working on the next video and sorting through my lists to see what order I should do the rest in - I've got about 95% of Heavensward to Endwalker identified 😅
