Destiny - Peter Dinklage Voice Comparison

P-Dinky's vocals in the Destiny Alpha got a lot of stick, so Bungie have had a tinker under the hood and altered them for the Beta. In this video we present the new and old, side by side, so you can decide which one you liked the best! R.I.P "That wizard came from the Moon" :'(

Based on the comparison he didn't sound all that bad in either IMO. His voice kind of made me think of Ron Perlman's narrations for the Fallout series.

Sam Fisher3563d ago

Thats bad, anything ron pearlman is bad except soa

Mr Pumblechook3563d ago

I'm actually one of those who liked the voice in the Alpha - it sounded real and personable. Although a couple of lines sound overacted!

But the voice in the beta just sounds like it has been through a 1970s voice synthesiser. It's too gimmicky for such an expensive to make game. If there has to be a voice effect I'd like it a bit more real and subtle.

Cool video comparison though - thanks dude.

IndoAssassin3563d ago

Lol when will people realize that Alpha means not all the features have been implemented?

McScroggz3563d ago

The reason Alphas and Betas exist is for fan feedback.

McScroggz3563d ago

Better, but it still feels lacking. I know it's not a fair comparison at all, but after Borderlands and Claptrap you have to inject some sort of personality into your robot/AI characters. I admit I wish he would have read the lines as Tyrion Lannister. That would have been super entertaining.

Si-Fly3563d ago

Claptrap? Are you taking the piss?!!! One of THE most annoyingly voiced character in recent times lol

Chapter113563d ago

Doesn't sound any better if you ask me. Sounds like he's just phoning it in, waiting for his paycheck.

-Foxtrot3563d ago (Edited 3563d ago )

As I was saying on another article which I don't think got approved (We'll see)...it seems like the voice effect is just covering the problem up, not fixing it

Didn't they say he was coming in to redo lines? For the guys who created someone like Cortana this is pretty disappointing, with their tec in that universe why would an AI sound more robotic.

McScroggz3563d ago

I have no idea whether or not that rumor was true or if it's feasible, but I honestly hope he does. Dinklage is such a good actor, I want it to show in his performance.

gamegenieny3563d ago

This. It isn't different. Just sounds different cause they ran the VO through a sound changer ....

That's extremely low for microtransactions, especially for a game that's essentially designed around it

LucasRuinedChildhood326d ago (Edited 326d ago )

This was back when the game wasn't free to play.

The figures are from November 2017 to February 2019 (1 year and 4 months).

Based on that projection, the MTX revenue for Destiny 2 likely would have been closer to ~$240m for 2 years.

Not sure if premium expansions are included in that figure either although ... I'd hope that they are though and that most of the revenue was for actual content like Forsaken.

People spend way too much money on cosmetics.

Rude-ro326d ago (Edited 326d ago )

Seasons($10 and just got bumped to $12) and dungeon keys($10 each, two a year) are through the eververse(micro transaction) store.
So for those two years, in order to play a season, you would pay through micro transactions.

Sonic1881326d ago (Edited 326d ago )

Bungie Marathon will be worse since it's designed around it as well

Kurt Russell325d ago

It makes me sad to agree... but at the same time I am looking forward to giving it a go. Destiny 2 is so far in, I find it difficult to figure out what I am meant to do first.

buffig326d ago

I think FIFA alone makes over $1bn a year from mtx

anast326d ago

FIFA promotes a worldwide sport. It should make more money than destiny.

CantThinkOfAUsername326d ago (Edited 326d ago )

Let's compare something similar. Apex Legends and its ridiculous $18/$40 skins make EA a billion each year.

z2g326d ago

For as much as ppl complain how much they hate microtransactions, they sure don’t act like it. No wonder they aren’t going anywhere.

spicelicka326d ago

By "people" you're referring to millions and millions of people. Obviously the ones complaining aren't necessarily the same as the ones spending all that money.

There's millions that purchase MTX and there's nothing we can do about it

I've been thinking about playing through D1 again before it goes away...

CobraKai477d ago

That’s the sad reality of a game like this. I bought it, invested lots of money, and it can go away at anytime. I still think this was more fun than 2.

jeromeface476d ago

prob because 2 is a grindfest slog

spoonard474d ago

That's the bummer of 'games as a service'.
