I was watching 'Romeo and Juliet' in english today...How boring...And relised that the actor who played one of the cousins AND played Luchentio in 'Taming of the shrew'(another boring film from english class) sounded like Mae'Var.I dont remeber the actors name now,but is it the same person?

cant say really, as I havent seen either film [img]tongue.gif[/img] . But theres a good chance it is, as the voice actors of BG2 are in some pretty famous movies, as well...

Was the actor in those films Dwight Schultz? He's the voice of Mae'Var and another character you might meet in Chapter 5. Schultz is better known as "Howlin' Mad" Murdock from the A-Team and as Lt. Reg Barclay from Star Trek: The Next Generation.

Not to mention voicing characters in Fallout, Arcanum and a ton of other games. No Shakespearean stints as far as I can tell, though. Probably wishful thinking on your part...

The only voice I recognize is Haer'Dalis's, which was done by Michael Bell.

HOLY SHYTE! Murdock is the voice of Mae'var, now that make me wanna go back and play arcanum again(never made it all the way through). Damn. Any other famous voices? Well the narrator(between chapters and such) from BG II sounds like some voice from Shrek. I ahd been wondering where I'd heard it before, and then my sister's like I just watch shrek last night. So I says to myself Eureka, he's from shrek. Can anyone verify that?

I was mistaken, It's Firkraag. and he's the captain of the guards in Shrek. WOO HOO. I love IMDB
http://imdb.com/title/tt0224637/fullcredits
HOLY SHYTE again the guy who did Yoshimo also was the voice of Yosemite Sam recently. It's amazing what I've learned from this website.
Sorry, one more to add. Warf from star trek is Bhaal. How crazy is that?

Yeah, he sounds like that, but he's not in the credits. But I could have sworn I hear Michael Dorn in that dream(I'm not that far into the game).

Arcanum and BG had the best voice acting IMO, the quality REALLY took a plunge with the NWN series. ehehee.. Cummings
