The New, Sinister?, Death Knight Voice

Kenzi August 29 2008 10:56 pm 36 Comments

Build 8885 brought the much anticipated “evil” Death Knight voices. I wouldnt go so far as to say it sounds “evil”…more echoey would be the word I would use. Either way, it marks us as different and I like it. I uploaded a few small clips to YouTube, its from a Human Female, I’ll try and get some other samples when I’m not so tired.

Apparently my videos got nuked by YouTube…luckily Sicaro posted an even better one!

Maybe Blizz is cracking down on Beta content being posted…

Though I really didn’t think they’d care.

I like all the voices… except the undead male one. It sounds like they made them… lighter. Higher. How come the dead dudes get squeeky when everyone else (even the blood elf guys) get deeper?

Anyone else here think the Dranei sound a lot like Darth Vader… if he were Russian. The UD sound the best IMO with Taurens in a close second.

Cool.

does this effect occure at the voice chat, too?
i remember, when the voice chat was released, blizz said, that they will in future try to let the voice sound a bit class/race orientated.
this could be the first step to it.

The female dwarf gives herself a “dutch oven pedicure” every night? So she farts (on herself?) under the covers in bed? You’re supposed to dutch oven your SO.

Woho!Finally!

Blood elf, troll and orc has the coolest so far. The undead guys sound like they had their jewels cut off, eventhough I doubt it would effect them. *snicker

I’m amazed nobody has commented on the BE Male voice.

Damn that’s a huge change. They must’ve modulated his voice twice as deep as the others.

I planned to go Blood Elf Male Death Knight anyway, but this makes it ten times better. They sound so different, and evil. Amazing!

they mostly sound like garbage. Although the undead/blood elf male voices were decent.

The male Blood Elf voice sounds like “V” from the movie: V for Vendetta!

Wow, male Blood Elf laugh is just…wow. They really sound like they had more work put into them sounding menacing.

Holy Crap…. the male BElf laugh…. it sounds…evil. I couldn’t choose between Orc or BElf DK before, but now I sure as hell know what I’m choosing.

Damn! Blood Elves got the big slice here! Draenei not too bad either. Darth Vader anyone?

Tauren gave me a chill down my spine as well /shiver

Yes, I meant the Males only lol. Damn Tauren… evil cows!

Wow, that was awesome. I liked the Female Undead alot, but mainly the Male Undead. He has a very “sinister” effect to his voice. And I like that Voice Chat Idea someone, very smart and would make WoW live again. Not saying that it isnt now, but you know what I mean.
