Actually, he sounds upbeat cause he and his voice acting coach had a miscommunication. They didn't have a visual for him, so he thought he'd look like a classic 1920s Ferryman.
Skeletons with the out-of-expectations voices/lines are amazing to me. Like this and Death in the Castlevania anime, where he starts off like a dramatic ancient force then swears like a sailor.
Oh my god death in castlevania is so funny Spoilers (y’know, more spoilers than just death being in Netflix’s castlevania): Like you’d think the way varney acts would be some sort of act or facade but NO THAT’S JUST DEATH’S PERSONALITY (or well, he gets a little more grandiose but still)
I mean... it fits the demeanor of the portrait (he's casually holding a smartphone after all). I think the bigger issue is not putting on some sort of filter to make him sound more ethereal or not-of-this-world.
You know what, I think it works. He’s got an amusingly “normal man” vibe which clashes with his appearance in a funny way. It’s a well-worn comedic trope to have the most imperious-looking characters be like “hi i’m greg :)”
like death in 'let it die', the grim reaper, robes skull, but he's got wacky 3d glasses, a skateboard and calls you 'senpai' like some sort of a weeb. it works, its funny.
Honestly, after seeing his short, I don't see anything wrong with this Ferryman. This guy HAS A CELL PHONE and is basically immortal. Not all of his kind are going to be deep sounding. I kinda like it. Chill, relaxed and is a dude. I would of enjoyed a bit of reverb to sound more like a being not like a human.
That’s quite a surprise for me. I know Alpharad was gonna do a voice announcer for Fraymakers but seeing him voice acting in River City Girls 2 Is crazy. I honestly feel like he’s 💯 qualified to voice acting anything cartoon, video game, anime, comic dubbing - You Name It. Also his role for this character suits him perfectly!
The voice fits so perfectly! A “monster” who gives better service for a boat ride than a normal taxi, it just works! I don’t know what Alpha was on about, he did the character so well!
Here I was expecting a horrible "career ruining" performance, but instead got an adorable doggo and a chilled skelly ferryman. Both fit really well in this game. I'm guessing this Alpha guy is his own worst critic?
Thank you for uploading this, I had to know. Also, since it's not there at the moment, could you add "Ferryman" somewhere in the title or description so more people can find it?
Alpharad may have said that he thought it’s was weird for the character. But honestly I think that his voice fits so well sense the ferry man has more of a modern mannered speech
I love when dark demonic looking characters are actually upbeat and fun, even if they don't look it. For example Veldora, (dragon form) at first glance he may seem dark, scary and evil but then you see that he can be so funny even if he did destroy towns and stuff
I know he didnt realise he was voicing a monster, but personally I think it makes it better. No more crreeeeeppppyyy whissspperrryyy hisssssd voices for these guys,
"voice acting" is a strong term, dude literally just ounds like normal Alpharad. The whole point of voice acting is to allow the character to have their own voice.
I actually really like his voice for the spooky lad, if the voice director wanted him to sound generic and spooky shed probably have just hired Corpse for a few lines, that's not a jab at corpse btw, I love that man, but his deep growly voice would've been the obvious choice for a skeleton Character
Considering his ferry has water bottles and charging ports for phones, I'd say it would only make sense that he sounds so layed back and oddly uplifting
Okay, but am I the only one that feels like the RUclipsr-Voice™ is very fitting for this ferryman despite his looks? His lines just make him seem like a chill dude™ lol
Приколы
Hello everyone! I have now posted alpharad's voice acting for the dog.
The Video: ruclips.net/video/a64xGLtBYlY/видео.html
What a wild sentence out of context lol
Alpha's lines: "I don't have skin"
Alpha: "I had no idea I was playing a monster"
Ok but what kind of horror monster
Probably thought it was some kind of joke/figure of speech.
@@Mikescool444 no hate to him, but it feels like hes lying for views.
@@Doork131 yeaup
@@Doork131agreed. Honestly, he didn't do a bad job. It fit the vibe what little I got from this clip. I suspect it was the dog that did it.
Like how he didn’t pick up on the fact he’s voicing a Skeleton with the line “I don’t have skin”
Maybe he thought it was like a ghost or just a dude in a big cloak
he probably did pick up on it but thought it was funny once he found out, so he just stuck with it
Skeletons can be upbeat, like Skelly from Hades. It's more the outfit makes him look like he'd talk like Charon, just oozing death
Apparently he was not told his character was a skeleton
@@rheyn8356 or papyrus
Came here IMMEDIATELY after I saw alpharads short. Yep, that's him alright.
Haha, Same
Same
Same man
Yep
also same
We all be comin’ here once Alpharad posted his short. Monke together stronk
yep
Yeah
Idk wut ur talkin bout😅
Yus
Apee
"Don't have skin."
"Cursed vessel."
Sounds like the hallmarks of a vaudevillian Mississippi ferryman to me.
the dont have skin line could also be a way to say brave.
lmao, i just saw his short. And i came looking for the voice recording. When I heard this line, i paused and scrolled down immediately. hahaha.
@@Zack_Wester that a big stretch
thats a carny for sure
I guess he didn't expect Greek Underworld Ferryman
I mean it kinda works given the more modern dialogue the character has for him to be a bit more normal sounding. It actually makes it kinda charming
Actually, he sounds upbeat cause he and his voice acting coach had a miscommunication. They didn't have a visual for him, so he thought he'd look like a classic 1920s Ferryman.
@@OxenbeeOG honestly works oddly well on him
Yeah alpharad in his short painted it as like career ending but I kinda vibe with it cuz he's a creepy ferryman who's just kinda a chill guy
The ferryman has quite expressive artwork, so the contrast between the design and the demeanor works
Oh no I knew that! I came to this after his video on messing up due to not knowing what the character looked like!
Skeletons with the out-of-expectations voices/lines are amazing to me.
Like this and Death in the Castlevania anime, where he starts off like a dramatic ancient force then swears like a sailor.
Oh my god death in castlevania is so funny
Spoilers (y’know, more spoilers than just death being in Netflix’s castlevania):
Like you’d think the way varney acts would be some sort of act or facade but NO
THAT’S JUST DEATH’S PERSONALITY (or well, he gets a little more grandiose but still)
@@rockincradilyyyy8489 Death would no doubt say "eat shit and die" to someone with those exact words and I love it
He didnt even know 😭😭😭
They didn't show him the character he was voicing, they just gave him the lines. He thought the ferryman was just a guy
Also Papyrus
How did the line "just because I don't have skin" not give him a hint
Maybe he thought of a regular skeleton in a carnie outfit
he is not ableist, how dare you? 😂
The “charge your phones and water bottles under the seat” would lead him equally in the upbeat direction
Maybe he recorded that line last?
Idk man, smelly from Hades is a fun and dandy guy
I mean... it fits the demeanor of the portrait (he's casually holding a smartphone after all). I think the bigger issue is not putting on some sort of filter to make him sound more ethereal or not-of-this-world.
yeah i think a voice filter would have made this way better
The reverse reverberation in Hades sounded gorgeous, I'm sure it would have sounded great if they added it here
Exactly, the tone is great but the voice clip sounds too normal, too "just a dude." A filter would have been perfect
or ya know, just not putting in any effort whatsoever...
@@kookiekommenter he is just a dude, just a dude with a little boat
You know what, I think it works. He’s got an amusingly “normal man” vibe which clashes with his appearance in a funny way. It’s a well-worn comedic trope to have the most imperious-looking characters be like “hi i’m greg :)”
like death in 'let it die', the grim reaper, robes skull, but he's got wacky 3d glasses, a skateboard and calls you 'senpai' like some sort of a weeb.
it works, its funny.
The Reason he sounds like a normal man is becuase Alpharad though it was a regular human Ferry and didnt know it was a skelly
Ive noticed the trope with death or demons In particular.
My favorite is Grim from Billy and Mandy.
came here from the short and like damn they did homie dirty. voice still sorta fits but damn
wdym this is amazing
Honestly not bad, fits the whole theme of this game tbh. You guys should see jacksepticeye voicing in this game
The what now?
the who?
@@pissandballs123HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW JACKSEPTICEYE WHAT THE??
they definitely intended alpha to use his regular voice, if they want creepy or edgy they would have told him so
What's funny it's not even that unfitting, it just makes him sound like what you'd expect from basically a skeleton Uber driver
IT FITS. HOW WAS HIS CAREER RUINED
Clickbait
RUclipsr hyperbole
Clickbait
Honestly, after seeing his short, I don't see anything wrong with this Ferryman. This guy HAS A CELL PHONE and is basically immortal. Not all of his kind are going to be deep sounding. I kinda like it. Chill, relaxed and is a dude. I would of enjoyed a bit of reverb to sound more like a being not like a human.
BRO IT UNINTENTIONALLY FITS THE CHARACTER!!!
goddamn i love it he should do more voice acting
Honestly kinda fits tbh
I find it hilarious that the literal boatman of the dead just sounds like jacob alpharad speaking completely normally
The ferryman is holding a phone you’d think he would talk like a human white guy probably
@@heatheryoder2120the ferryman of the dead just scrolling through tiktok on his phone
never change alpha, never change.
That’s quite a surprise for me.
I know Alpharad was gonna do a voice announcer for Fraymakers but seeing him voice acting in River City Girls 2 Is crazy.
I honestly feel like he’s 💯 qualified to voice acting anything cartoon, video game, anime, comic dubbing - You Name It. Also his role for this character suits him perfectly!
The voice fits so perfectly! A “monster” who gives better service for a boat ride than a normal taxi, it just works! I don’t know what Alpha was on about, he did the character so well!
I absolutely love how alpharad not only makes videos but music and even voice acts. The man of many talents that never ceases to be funny.
Honestly the Ferryman sounds great
Please tell me you uploaded this because of the short that just came out
It’s true!
To be honest??? Alpharad isn't even bad at voice acting. He should do more
The guy talks about water bottles under the seat and charging phones.
The voice fits fine geeze
Here I was expecting a horrible "career ruining" performance, but instead got an adorable doggo and a chilled skelly ferryman. Both fit really well in this game.
I'm guessing this Alpha guy is his own worst critic?
He explained he actually did normal voice, Alpharad didn’t know that was the character, which is funny
Thank you for uploading this, I had to know. Also, since it's not there at the moment, could you add "Ferryman" somewhere in the title or description so more people can find it?
No Problem! I was having such a hard time finding it myself so I wanted to help anyone who was struggling out, Will do i'll put it in the description
Thank you for that
Ok it kinda fits tho
It actually fits the character surprisingly well
Mhm yes the line "I don't have any skin." Gives of energetic youtuber vibes.
With the lines he was given, I think this is a great voice for the ferryman
I love how he said "its... its reasonably priced"
Alpharad may have said that he thought it’s was weird for the character. But honestly I think that his voice fits so well sense the ferry man has more of a modern mannered speech
Honestly I feel like this voice fits a lot better than any other voice Alpha could have done
I love when dark demonic looking characters are actually upbeat and fun, even if they don't look it. For example Veldora, (dragon form) at first glance he may seem dark, scary and evil but then you see that he can be so funny even if he did destroy towns and stuff
Unironically like this more than what we couldve had if Alpha was aware of The Ferryman's design
Alpharad didn't realize what type of character he was voicing despite him literally saying the words "I don't have skin."
Love how we’re all here now
The fact that he didn’t know he was playing a skeleton made his voice funnier I think
"i dont have skin" "traverse the plane of existance"
"yea i thought it was a carnie"
The fact that jacob’s voice doesn’t fit the character at all means that by jacob standards, it fits the character perfectly
I know he didnt realise he was voicing a monster, but personally I think it makes it better. No more crreeeeeppppyyy whissspperrryyy hisssssd voices for these guys,
"Hey, what's up, I'll be your guide to the Underworld across the River Styx for today, you can call me Ted. I accept tips."
Alpharad: i thought hed be a like a funny ferryman
Also alpharad: Just because I dont have skin,...
Tbh. the voice somehow feels fitting.
Not every monster or demon needs a dark or deep voice.
“I don’t have skin” “cursed vessel” “plane of existence” yet he thought he looked like someone in a barbershop quartet lol.
The voice fits the lines and atmosphere super well.
Honestly, the ferry man having this voice is not bad, just is a regular dude who is making money
The upbeat voice acting actually makes the ferryman charming
I mean i really like how he did the voice acting. It makes it better to me
You know the crazy part? The voice DOES fit-
Bro is Ominious Mysterious Dark character when they use cough drops for their throat 💀
I love this XD. Also a big fan of the background music playing during this clip.
Now we need to see Alpharad Voicing the Dog in RCG2
I’ll try to find it tomorrow (since it’s super late in my time zone now) if someone hasn’t already clipped it yet
The voice being unexpectedly normal-sounding and upbeat gives me such Adventure Time vibes
I actually think it fits in a really unexpected way lmao
"voice acting" is a strong term, dude literally just ounds like normal Alpharad. The whole point of voice acting is to allow the character to have their own voice.
All he needed to say "I'm also wokubg on my pitches, please leave a review, I'd appreciate it a ton!"
Ngl the voice still works, he's a skeleton sure but he's just a normal guy running a ferry at heart. Plus the voice is still deep enough to fit.
I actually really like his voice for the spooky lad, if the voice director wanted him to sound generic and spooky shed probably have just hired Corpse for a few lines, that's not a jab at corpse btw, I love that man, but his deep growly voice would've been the obvious choice for a skeleton Character
Thank you for immediately going and grabbing the clip for us. You're bestest
Aw thank you!
For some reason this actually fits him kind of
Weirdly works. Like, there's a bit of a dissonance, but it makes it funnier as a result, so that's a win.
Ferryman just sounds like a chill guy giving boat rides to people.
Boi, you know I looked this up for the short. I appreciate the RUclips short energy. 🤣
Alpharad:(says very calmly) i have no skin
Alpharad later: I WAS VOICING A MONSTER?!?!?!?
Also this voice kinda fits
The most friendly sounding ferryman 😂😂😂
I'm surprised the dialogue is just straight Alpharad. No edit, no wispy echo. Just... Alpharad being Alpharad.
That just sounded like alphrad his voice is so recognizable that it's so easy to tell
Honestly? I kinda like it, even if he didn’t mean to, it’s a nice twist on the old and raspy ferryman voices. He’s just a chill guy
It sounds very good tbh and also very fitting with the other characters voices
I like this a lot more than if it was just some generic evil raspy skeleton or skeletor voice tbh. he's just a dude, a boney dude
Ngl I actually love his voice this casual nice voice for a demon sounds oddly so good to me rather an demonic voice
bro's voice somehow fits. like a wheatly-esc fit for lake of a better word
Knowing how this was likely unintentional voice delivery makes it even funnier
Ok, saw alpharads vid, saw tge character, heard the voice, and immediately said "it fits" ALL BECAUSE HE IS HOLDING A PHONE
"Cheaper than a taxi, really" is the only part of the Ferryman dialogue where I could imagine him as something other than the internet funny man
Thanks. I was searching for this.
I dont know why but this voice work out really well
Thanks for uploading this!
"Yo, is that your cat wearing a darth vader mask?"
"Why did you sign your own cat photo?"
"Please don't touch that."
Considering his ferry has water bottles and charging ports for phones, I'd say it would only make sense that he sounds so layed back and oddly uplifting
Look at that 30 mins ago, what a coincidence
"I get it, you're tired of River City Girls 2, you're tired of the snappy gameplay and amazing art. Well, I present to you: NOT River City Girls!"
Despite what he said in his short, I love how the voice still works lol
What a smooth voice for a dead guy with purple flames coming out of his mouth
He sounds so friendly I love it
He seems like the nicest ferryman of death ever I love it😂😂😂😂
Honestly this is so fun and charming!
oh my god this is better than I thought XD
The ferryman here putting in the extra effort to provide a good transportation service, and hes cheaper than a cab or uber? Sign me the hell up
Alpharad did well... even though he didn't know what role he was playing
He doesn't seem that bad he should do more of this as a hobby/side hustle every once in a while
I like how recent this is
Okay, but am I the only one that feels like the RUclipsr-Voice™ is very fitting for this ferryman despite his looks?
His lines just make him seem like a chill dude™ lol
"Look, we get it. You're tired of River City Girls 2."
