Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
This is an active roll call for anyone who wants to participate in adding voice to the lines of the narration and the characters of the epic campaign! More people means more diversity of vocals! You can be involved in doing voiceover, in sound editing, reviewing and criticizing, playtesting, etc.
I've seen countless threads in the forum praising the "Descent into Darkness" mainline campaign, with some choosing it as their all-time favorite. The characters and the story always get mentioned as being great. So I know there are a lot of people here in the forums and Wesnoth community who love Descent into Darkness.

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
I was wondering do we want to have a single person do the story narrative or what do you think would be best for that?

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
The narrative dialog contains some portions where the main characters also speak. I think it would be best if those portions are voiced by the respective voice actors. As for the voiceover of the narrator I have two suggestions:
- Have one person be dedicated for doing only the narration
- It might be flavorful to make the narrator be voiced by a Spectre/Wraith/Ghost, or some character, so it sounds like a tale told by "someone who was in the story"
Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
I like that idea! The ghost plays an important role in the plot line and so I can definitely see the value in that. The only disadvantage might be the story text is less factual seeming if it comes from the point of view of a biased narrator.
I don't really see this as an issue but I thought to mention it in light of the campaign's themes and the underlying question that was recently asked on the forum about who really is responsible for the protagonist's decline into the dark world.

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
I think it's better to have two voice actors, but it will increase the time to get things done, as every project with several persons on-board.
As for the german part, I could take both roles (we never had feedback from other german voiceovers in the other projects).
For the english version I could take one of the roles, ghost or narrator, whatever max_torch wants to take. My holiday will start on the 12th of december, giving me more time for free time projects like this one. It could also be a surprise for the listeners of my radioshow as part of my advent Calendar (and no, I'm not talking about the Advent from X-Com 2 ).

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
Let's make a complete script of all the narration and dialog in a cloud-based word file so that we can more intelligently plan and allocate tasks and see all the available roles.
I'm going to assign numbers to each of us and then roll dice (http://www.roll-dice-online.com/) to see who I'll ask..
1 - Heindal
2 - The_Gnat
3 - max_torch
Result: 2
@The_Gnat, the RNG gods chose you, can you handle making the script?

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
Yes that shouldn't be a problem
While I'm doing it I will also allocate a 'name' do to each piece if dialogue. (for example Ghost-3) then when we record the sound files we can save them as that name and just shove them into the campaign.

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
Bad news, I couldn't stop myself and finished the german voice record version yesterday. It's a fast paced version, but it includes most of the dialogues as well. I've separated them into two different archives, one for the Narration and one for the dialogues for each chapter.
The dialogue contains information in the title, when the dialogue is started (death drogan, summon ghost etc.). We have lot's of these conditions, as well as several paths the hero can take (use necromancy or not), which will also end up in different chapters and dialogues. So far I've just recorded the dialogue path for using necromancy.

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
The fourth. Please note, that's it. There aren't any dialogue recordings for chapter4, chapter 7-10 and the dialogues don't included the ghost rebellion.
After all not so bad for one day of playing through Descent into Darkness.

Awesome! Thank you for that! I unfortunately have been rather busy but I will start writing the code to implement your dialogue.

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
Yeah, it's an awesome campaign, as your decisions really change the game and there are alternative ways to win some campaigns.
