    Does Metzen do every voice in the game now?

    Hi guys,

    Been away from WoW for a long time now and have been thinking of coming back. Unlike many others, one of the main reasons I left was because I had to hear Metzen voice act just about every character with varying degrees of pitch to his voice. This made it harder and harder for me to suspend my disbelief and finally when I heard him blabbing about pain and agony in the Cataclysm trailer I threw in the towel. Is that still the same in the Cataclysm expansion? Thanks.
    Cataclysm? The Shattering? Are we talking about the expansion or the state of the WoW playerbase?

    Yes it is. In fact, the next expansion is going to be called "Mists of Metzen" and is just going to be various mobs with his face stuck on them.

    Wouldn't be all that surprising.

    So, in researching this, I remembered Yogg-Saron's cool voice in Ulduar. I wondered who might do such awesome voice work and proceeded to Google it (obviously). Apparently... it's none other than Jelly Jiggler! From Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo!

    I will never look at that instance the same. Maybe.

    I probably chuckled a lot harder than I should. Good one.

    You know that pandas eat bamboo, there. They love the bamboo. You get, eh, you get a panda? And you got a bamboo in your backyard? It'll ruin it. Right? You got bamboo furniture? Well, uh, well, pandas go nuts.

    That's the good thing when you play a localized version of the game...learn a different language and play the localized version of the game = profit

    Yeah, because the German version of Onyxia sounds *so* much better than the original one...

    Also, I don't think Theralion was voiced by Metzen

    I totally agree. Some voices may be alright, but a lot of times, it's just him doing his Thrall-impression over and over and over...

    I'd rather have the Metzen as a playable race in the next xpac than pandas tbh

    Metzen isn't the voice of Deathwing.

    I'm going by internet speculation, and one of the 5 human senses. I would love to see that source of yours though.

    They confirmed at Blizzcon 2010 that it wasn't Metzen that voiced Deathwing.

    Must have been off the live cam. (I watched it last year) Still awaiting on that source though, it would be really great to know if he acts it or not.

    They said they hired pro voice actors. While Metzen might like his own voice, it's still not THAT many voices he do.
