Deathwings Voice

[The Ogdru Jahad]

I listened to the deathwing dialogue on front page with with my breadth held, and DAMN. BLIZZARD GOT IT RIGHT FOR ONCE! Holy mother of pearl, deathwing has the most bad ass evil villain voice ever. He sounds perfect, probably the best I've ever heard, gg blizzard, u did something great! What do you guys think of his voice?

[Kio]

It's pretty good, but I won't ever hear it in context since I don't play with the sound on. Music > Voices.

[Snorri]

It sounds good...but all I hear is Thrall with an evil voice Metzen voices too many characters to be honest.

[Elementium]

His voice sounds really familiar.. anyone figure out who it is?

[zorg]

Metzen?

[Entalpia]

Only once? For me Sylvanas also has great voice.... sad that Crowley ( mister croooooooooooooowley!!!) talks like he would have mouth full of fur

[Elementium]

Metzen?

Ah.. really? I guess that would be why it sounds familiar..

[The Ogdru Jahad]

Sylvanas is good too but I have heard her voice already. I think deathwings voice sounds ALOT like Mr. Freeze from that HORRIBLE batman staring George Clooney and Arnold shwartzcantspellhisname. He sounds more like deathwing later on in the video, not at the beginning. But deathwing's voice is alot harsher.

Voice is good, sounds like everyone else in the game. But good nonetheless

[Viertel]

Sounds absolutely horrendous. Boring, reused skin with very little alterations with a boring, lame voice ran through a VOCoder to try to sound not like the average Joe it does.

Basically, I all hear is "I AM DEATHWING AND I MUST YELL BECAUSE APPARENTLY BEING EVIL MEANS YELLING AND MY BARITONE VOICE TOTALLY MATCHES MY ASPECT SIZE!"

I don't know if I agree with it sounding horrendous. The voice sounds exactly like I thought it should/would, I mean seriously do you expect a gigantic dragon to have a high pitched voice and talk with a British accent?

My only complaint is that I am incredibly sick of Blizzard never springing for any voice acting outside of their own in house staff. I am so incredibly tired of every female boss having the same voice and nearly every male character being voiced by Metzan. It is frankly pretty shameful that all these epic bosses sound the exact same. How many billions has Blizzard raked in from Wow? You'd think they would be willing to invest a couple thousand into vastly improving the realism and quality of their biggest characters. They don't even have to sign some well known actor or something to do the voices, although having James Woods voice Deathwing would be the greatest thing ever imo. I'm sure there are thousands of non-name actors they could get on the cheap to do their voice work.

Words cannot describe the immensity of the facepalm I just did.

Thrall is Deathwing?

[mafio]

thrall is deathwing?

+1
:d

[Arcangel14]

Sounds pretty awesome imo.

[writhe666]

It sounds alright, but it really does sound too similar to other voices already in-game... I would've expected a little more for Deathwing's voice, but it's not THAT bad.

[Deleted]

Even though it sounds quite similar to Thrall (with laryngitis), i like the voice.

Let's hope he doesn't have too many monologues.

[xxf2dxx]

Ah.. really? I guess that would be why it sounds familiar..

You do know that Metzen does like... 80% of voices, right?

[Badreapr]

Thrall is Deathwing?

Yeah, Thrall and Deathwing are two sides of the same coin, like Ying and Yang, one cannot exit without the other. Thall is kinda like the sober Deathwing sorting out all the damage he did in his drunken rage, like "OMFG better clear this up before Jaina finds out", "Thrall what are you doing?", "FFFFFFFUUUUUUUU-"

chris metzen is always FTW
