Nah, those are Redguards who sound like Joe Blow.
So do Bosmer.
With Nords, it's either that thick Norwegian, or the voice of Jim Cummings...and every time I hear HIS voice, I imagine Pete from the Disney cartoons.

I imagine Ed from "The Lion King". Or that floating cupcake from "Cabin Boy". Don't ask.

Posted: Wed Oct 31, 2012 3:17 pmI think it was more to do with the voice actors they picked for the final take (see Arvel the Swift in the E3 demo versus the final game, and also look at all the Dunmer added by Dawnguard with one noticeable exception). They certainly have more quantity in Skyrim, but the quality is still not quite there.

it does have a certain aussie twang.
It sounds absolutely terrible though whatever it is. Why they ever even considered the Dunmer & Altmer voices for Skyrim in the first place is something I'll never be able to understand

This. I sooo wish they brought back the raspy Dunmer voice from Morrowind.

Posted: Wed Oct 31, 2012 10:01 amThe issue is that the Dunmer should have Nordic, Breton etc. accents, but still have the rough/raspy voices of the Dunmer.

Why? So they can show us gameplay of a Dunmer and change the voice afterward? That has happened twice already.

Posted: Wed Oct 31, 2012 1:50 pmSomewhat off-topic, but Jack Mercer was inspired for his Popeye voice by Tuvan throat singers. Popeye the Sailor (Dun)mer, anyone?
I was think something like the kid on the left would be hilarious to hear coming from a Dunmer (the ones from Morrowind days that is - the good 'ol days of Dunmer voices)

Posted: Wed Oct 31, 2012 9:50 amShouldn't the Dunmer have a more darker achier tone in their voice? The Dunmer women are fine it is the Dunmer males that pisses me off. Why do Dumner men have voices of other races? They don't have a specific voice for male Dunmers? Same as the Bosmer. Aren't there suppose to be around 70 voice actors?

Most Dunmer voices are made by two actors (a male and a female voice). Some - both male and female - have other VAs. For variation I guess.
