    Want to play Outer Wilds but don't like reading? Want a new reason to get back into your favourite game?
    This mod adds voice acting to all 2,100+ lines of dialogue in the game with professional mixing and effects, all implemented into a single mod!
    Experience your friends, the Nomai and the [SPOILER] brought to life... and experience pain when Mica starts talking like Toad. Thanks, John.
    This trailer was a joy to make, and I'm so excited to potentially make more! Huge thank you to the whole team for giving me this lovely opportunity.

    Fun fact: This was originally going to be a personal fan trailer made for fun. I tried adding some voice lines to the small section I'd made and it was so good that JohnCorby asked if I wanted to turn it into the real thing!
    Also, the mixing and effects added to some lines really bring it all together.. all the subtle stuff - voices sounding like they're inside helmets, ambience.. top tier, top tier. These effects are, understandably, not in the trailer, though.

    If Feldspar doesn't sound like a grizzled Southern biker, I will be momentarily disappointed. What an incredible project, if only I had a PC.

      @@quantumblur_3145 anime has a very distinct style of expressive voice acting which is not really fit for general low action circumstances. Also, the energy in that voice acting is consistently high energy, high expression, not a mix between low and high in a single sentence
      In any case, voice acting in a lot of cases is supposed to sound natural, or at least come across as natural. Some expression is exaggarated, but the intonation in some of the clips for this mod is way off and it just doesn't flow.
      Again, I get this is free so this is not criticism or saying it "should" be better, but to say this is a style on its own and not a hobby project made by amateur voice actors is dense af

  • @ReverendTed
    @ReverendTed 2 месяца назад +2

    Quite a monumental undertaking, especially for a fan project! A labor of love, I'm sure.
    My only apprehension is that it would more concretely "gender" the Hearthians in a way that the game explicitly doesn't, but that's a minor quibble considering it's our natural tendency to do that in our heads anyway.

    • @Paulo_Schnaufer
      @Paulo_Schnaufer День назад

      Yeah! I personally think the Hearthians are a one-gender species... Like some (guess) fishes, lizards, and the gecko! The Nomai have 2 genders, as we can see multiple times in our exploration, they even have some dating between a established male and a established female, as well as the words "brother" and "sister". You can see, from Esker's annotations, if I remember it correctly, that two Hearthians were flirting with each other... so it can be that they're actually hermaphrodite, which is a lot more common among fishes... And they say "they" all the time just because they could be both male or female at the time (or male and female at the same time, some fishes are _really_ weird).

    ...Marshmallow on a stick, this might be *_exactly_* what I've been looking for. Are there any restrictions or guidelines for using the mod in a playthrough? For a while now I've pondered the idea of _Hatchling's Mind,_ giving the _Freeman's Mind_ treatment to Outer Wilds, but the dialogue being exclusively text-based was an obstacle I couldn't think of a workaround for... _this could potentially work ::)_
    -(...of course, this also makes me wonder if The Hatchling is -_-also-_- voiced in this mod, and how to silence -_-only-_- their lines if so... since it'd be hella weird for their "scripted" lines, and my live commentary, to have clearly different voices... kinda what i had to do years ago in my SimCopter playthrough, to replace the in-game copter loudspeaker announcements with my own... ah, i see there's a template for modding this mod, that makes things easier i suppose!)- _waaaaiiiit a minute, i think i know what it means by "You" being voice acted ;;)_
