I hope the original returns.

That new voice was of the generic grumpy maverick type.

I agree that I feel Raynor looks out of place. Heck, his second-in-command looks way too spiffy next to him. I get Jimmy is down in the dumps, but at least grab a clean shirt once in a while and LOOK like a leader.

I like Raynor's gruffy and scruffy look... he's always been like that

and the 2nd in command dude is appropriate as well... that's how younger and more inexperienced recruits are like anyway... gotta play the disciplined part before you can start drinkin' in the middle of the day =P


Yeah, imo he looks alright, although it would be awesome to have the original voice actors.

From LordofAscension's Lore Article...

"As for Raynor, while Robert Clotworthy (the original voice of Raynor) has said he’d love to do Raynor’s voice again, Metzen loves a new guy that has come in to the studio and read for Raynor. He says from his, a creative, perspective he wants to get the character right and that this new guy is much closer to what he had originally envisioned for the character. But he does realize that we, as fans, have an emotional attachment to the original voice and they haven’t quite decided what to do on that one."

So, there's still hope for the die-hard original Jimmy voice fans!!


Eh...

Raynor's voice has already been established for those who play StarCraft. It's like that South Park episode, Free Hat. You don't go back and change your sculpture after you made it. The people who have played and enjoyed StarCraft seem to like Clotworthy quite a bit. Since it can't really be argued he did a bad job, I think that's all that matters.

Of cource they must use the old ones.. exepct for new units etc. I hate when they put on new voices in sequels. Its like you see a sequel for a movie and they put on a new actor to play the same role.. sux ><

Well, the point of starcraft really is not the campaign mode and the storyline, its the multiplayer... so I really couldn't care less. I would spend the first day or 2 beating the campaign, and from then on i would never look back.

We don't know how the finished product will turn out. We don't know what the campaigns and storyline have in store for us. For me, what it comes down to is how much better suited would the new intended voice actor be for the role? If it's just "a little bit," then it's really not worth changing; if the difference is substantial, a consequence of needing Raynor to be a new and different person, then changing may be the right idea.

Ultimately, without seeing the script and without knowing what Blizzard's intended image of the game is I cannot in good conscience make that call on my own.

If Blizzard is listening...

If you haven't already, you should post some voice acted dialogue of Raynor (along with some cinematic or a mission briefing or something) and then listen for feedback. Ideally, it should be something meaningful (though of course we don't want a huge spoiler), so that we get the best sense of where this is going.

If such a thing exists, then I'd appreciate being pointed in that direction. I "quit" SC almost 9 months ago now, but I may come back and play SC 2 online, so for someone like me who is watching and listening carefully to see how this project will turn up before making a decision, the more that can be provided the better (and I realize that a lot is being provided already, especially given how early in development this game is, but it's a fact of life that I will need to be hooked just like how I got hooked to Starcraft in the first place -- and despite the fact that it was a really good game, Warcraft 3 just didn't hook me the same way!).
Even though this Proleague bullshit has been completely bogus, I really, really, really do not see how Khan can lose this. I swear I will kill myself if they do. - nesix before KHAN lost to eNature
