I was just wondering...People out there have to like the main baddy of the game,i think hes great.His voice is so powerfull,and hey,in suldanessalar?he kicks my butt 3 or 4 times times in a row.3 cheers for Irenicus!

YES. I am a big Irenicus fan. He is the only one that makes his part alive. His voice act is crisp and sharp.

He`s the man.

He's a supreme choice. Apart from his great villain personality I also think it's incredible that the main boss is not some overpowered grunt, but an oncredibly powerful mage which makes the whole scenario more believable.

A bit cliched, and I figured him out pretty early in the game... They hinted at his story way too much. I mean, there's foreshadowing, and then there's giving it away. It irritates me that the PC sounds stupid and completely misses the point by the time you're interrogating Elhan.
But!
The voiceacting is superb, and his lines are written well. I'm a huge fan of the the voiceacting here. And he's much more three-dimensional than the so-called Prince of Murder... Which isn't saying much, but there you go.

Yes he rocks! Isn't there a mod that lets you get everyone's favourite mage-villain as NPC? At least I hope so! Has anyone tried him? is he good?

Is his voice someone famous cause it sounds familiar?

Irenicus, Minsc, and Edwin have the greatest voices

David Warner. Do a search at www.imdb.com on him and see what you turn up.

(He's a favorite of mine, but it's late and I'm tired. Do the work yourself. [img]tongue.gif[/img] )

The voice acting in this game is top notch. Always makes me flinch a little when there's a "which popular Hollywood actors would be cast in the BG2 movie?" thread because everyone lists off flash-in-the-pan actors and forgets how great the voice talent is in this game. (And I *heart* animated films!)

Maybe I'm missing something here, but aren't YOU the Prince/Princess of murder? Or are you talking about the way Sarevok was played?
