More Tuvok Please

edited January 2014 in Star Trek Online General Discussion
So of all the special guests who've provided voice overs, I think I like Tuvok the best. He barely edges out Nimoy for me (though it's close).

So two things:

1- Thanks for getting him into the game. Thank you very much.

2- More Tuvok please? I know I'd love more work from him.

I'm not trying to say I didn't like everyone else's work. Just that I liked Russ' the best.

Again, thanks. Tuvok rocks!

    Al Rivera already confirmed he's back for Season 9 and possibly Expansion 2 this year.

    I'm not a huge fan of the character, but Russ' performance was tops. I'd love to see more of him. Might just make me a Tuvok fan yet.

    Yes, I was never a huge fan of Tuvok during Voyager (loved the show, though), but he works well in this mission, and he's a good partner to have in the game. I'd like to see more of him.

    Its really too bad cryptic cant tie into Russ's other project called Star Trek Renegades, and feed off each other.. Having Russ in STO lent it more reality and connectedness than ive seen in a very long time..

    Tim Russ did a great job, it was just like watching (listening) to him on Voyager, loved it, it's been a long time since Voyager ended and he rebooted Tuvok without a hitch.

    He was great!

    So far in the one VO I've heard (because the server went out while I was progressing through the early stages of the FE), he felt the most natural in his role as Tuvok than others did in their roles. Perhaps it's due to that cold Vulcan exterior and the slow cold voice to match.

    It probably helps that he's been working on Renegades, where he plays Tuvok, so it's likely a lot easier for him to quickly get into character, versus someone like Michael Dorn or Denise Crosby who haven't played their respective characters in many, many years.

    Tuvok definitely has been the best VO by far. It feels like your watching an interactive Voyager episode. I felt like Tim Russ was very authentic.

    russ' did such a great job at mimicking spock's vulcan approach. it was obvious he studied nimoy's mannerisms and voice inflections because he portrayed the part spot on. it was great to hear him as the tuvok character again and i look forward to seeing him in star trek renegades this year

    I will love to hear captain Janeway lol (i guess it will be admiral Janeway) . That will be epic. Its one of the characters i liked the most. But i agree, Tim Russ performed really great, actually so far i liked Worf as well, but i really will love to see Janeway.

    I agree. Michael Dorn seemed slightly off in his portrayal of Worf in SoI. Denise Crosby was a bit closer to the mark as Yar in TA. She only had two appearances as Sela in TNG, so it's hard to judge her STO performance based on her TV performance. But Tim Russ pretty much nailed Tuvok.

    You and me both. Other than getting Shatner, Mulgrew is the one actor I'm just dying to see brought in.

    Me too. Kate Mulgrew now tops my STO VO wish list. LeVar Burton is a close second. Robert Picardo and Nana Visitor would also be good choices, as their characters figure in the Path to 2409.

    I'm not even a huge Voyager fan and I thought Tuvok did great. It was real immersive (the first run through) and the level was well designed if not a little too easy.

    Now, please bring in LeVar Burton.

    If its one thing Tim Russ knows how to do, it's how to play Tuvok.

    Even when he isn't playing Tuvok, he's still playing Tuvok.

    j/k. He is the best actor of a Vulcan character since Leonard Nimoy though.

    Personally, I'm hoping for Garrett Wang/Harry Kim. He does a lot for the Trek convention scene, especially at Dragoncon and seems to still be genuinely passionate about it. STO would probably be a great environment for him to finally expand his character to some extent and it would be neat to see Tuvok and Kim working together again in the Delta Quadrant.



    I fully agree about Tim Russ/Tuvok though. He has a fair bit of voiceover experience(ST:V Elite Force, for example) and what little I was able to experience of the Featured Episode so far was both enjoyable and immersive. I'm happy to hear there are plans to involve him more in the future.

    Hats off to Tim Russ for another great performance as Tuvok. Thanks, too, to everybody involved in making this happen. I think this definitely sets a new bar for FEs and for voice talent. Great work, everybody.

    This, so much.

    Russ really put his heart and soul into this voiceover and it really made me thrilled to hear such quality voice acting in Star Trek Online.

    Wow.

    That's great news.

    Again, I really appreciate all of the voice over work that's gone into this game.

    I just was really digging the work that came out with Tuvok. And am excited to hear more.

    Above folks mentioned getting Mulgrew involved. I'd love that too. Complete tangent, but she's my favorite character on Orange is the New Black.

    I always loved tuvoc. Loved him the character in elite force. He just... I don't know gives startrek a great atmosphere as a character. I really hope they bring him on for more, which it looks like.. but id love to him even more then what has been said. He's just so perfect in the startrek universe.

    No offense to Worf (perhaps it wasn't his fault but the content,) but Tuvok was totally rock in the new FE. His VO was well represented. We could actually feel that he was there.

    I hope Seven is next since I think she is borg and still alive, and the Voth enemy must be the borg since there isn't any delta quadrant race that can be a threat to the voth and use green (plasma) energy weapon.

    Yeah this for me too, he read the lines exactly like the annoying Tuvok of old.
