Does Champions Online use a single voice actress?

soundsrisky

I came across a voice actress, Lani Minella, that actually listed Champions Online in their resume. After listening to her voice samples I'm fairly convinced that she's voiced most, if not every, female character in the game.

Listen for yourself.

Wouldn't surprise me if she did. I also noticed that Ironclad and Duratok's voice actor is one person.

If IMDb is to be believed, Lani voices 5 characters, Beth (who?), Lapis Lazuli, Alamagordo (sceptical about this one), Talisman and Zoe Loft. It's not a complete list, but it's here if you're interested: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1392980/fullcredits/

The one that surprised me the most I think is Marc Biagi covering Psimon, Hi Pan & the Guardbots.

Don't think she's single.
And Duratok is voiced by the player who created him. Or atlest the sidekick one is.​​

Who voices Green Dragon? u.u

It's not uncommon for a single person to voice multiple characters, especially in a video game or animation. Was just commenting to myself and a friend the other day while playing Arkham Origins, that all of Bane's thugs are using the same voice actor so listening to them hold a conversation with themselves is hilarious. Also not uncommon for women to take on the role of male children or teenage characters either. Bart Simpson, Young Goku, for instance, are voiced by female actors. Hell, in Japan, the entire male line of Goku's family is voiced by a single female actor.

Some other characters all voiced by a single person: Homer Simpson, Grampa Simpson, Barney Gumble, Krusty the Clown, Sideshow Mel, Rabbi Krustofski, Groundskeeper Willie, Mayor Quimby, Hans Moleman, and Kodos.

Doctor Destroyer and Shadow Destroyer are also quite obviously voiced by the same person (who does an excellent job)

Actually they aren't. Defender/Shadow Destroyer is voiced by Chris Wilcox, Doctor Destroyer is voiced by Eric Newsome. What you might be thinking of is the early incarnation of Shadow Destroyer (up until the end of the Apocalypse) where they were running with the idea that Shadow Destroyer was a new Doctor Destroyer. But that was sidelined in favor of bringing back the real Doctor Destroyer and since Resistance the voices have been very distinct. One can just say voice modulation so Shadow Destroyer could more accurately take control of Doctor Destroyer's tech.

Naruto is also a female voice actor I believe.

The good one, or the god-awful one?

The one that makes me cringe

Bill Roper if I recalled voiced Green Dragon in the Nemesis stuff. No idea who voiced Green Dragon in the Alert.

When Spinny and I agree, you know he's bad.

hmmm... I'm not sure this info is accurate. At least one entry seems to be from STO...

Really? becuase Shadow D sounds just like Dr. D with a voice mod on.

You are very good at skimming and not reading obviously. Especially when iMDB even tells you who the voice actors are (since I was quoting it from that page).

a lot of the voice acting was done by the Devs at the time​​

Every time I hear him in that alert it reminds me of Cleveland from Family Guy.

I'd really like to know who does the Socrates voice in the Cybermind alert. I think I have a crush on her.

markhawkman

Really? I personally kinda hate Socrates.... I guess the voice is nicer than the rest of Socrates.
