[OPINION] Oak's Voice Over

First of all, no offense to the person who did Oak's voice-over, this is merely my opinion.  I have no clue if these are just temporary game assets being used in the beta or what, and if that's just a placeholder (please let it be true) then simply ignore what I'm about to say.

I think he sounds like a complete panzy.  Normally I'm fairly tolerant of this type of thing, but if I was going to be serious about playing that character, I'd have to play with the voices completely turned off, it's that far off of what I would imagine him to sound like based on his appearance.  I'm thinking something much more like the Omniknight voice (Human Arthas).

Will it be possible to replace the game sounds with custom sounds?

Add another one to the "don't like Oak Voiceover" camp. It does sound like a placeholder though, so it'll probably change.

One more for replacing the Oak's voice. His appearance is amazing, his voice too but in a wrong way. ;P

Placeholder voice. The real Oak sounds (and looks) like a superhero. We won't be adding these until January as they need alot of treatment before being added to the game. Apologies if the voices in there right now are annoying, they are all one guy here in house doing them for timing and testing purposes.

I feel sorry for the guy doing the placeholder voices... we're all so cruel to his poor voice :'(

Send my congratulations to the person doing Erebus' voice. He sounds exactly like Londo Mollari - the perfect decadent Aristocrat voice.
