Everyone needs to watch the latest E3 trailer which has his voice digitized, I hope this is representative of the final game

His voice work is absolutely fine with the appropriate filters/processing on top of it. I'm sure he was instructed to speak in this manner. It sounds awkward only because they haven't done anything to alter his voice for the Alpha to sound more like a robot rather than some bored guy.
Does anyone know who the other male voice actor was from the Destiny Beta? His voice is SUPER familiar. I know he spoke each time at the end of the Strike and at the beginning of a few of the Beacon missions. It's like I can almost picture who it is, but can't put a name to it.

Doesn't he also do the Titan trainer? Is the Titan trainer the guy narrating all of that stuff in universe?Does anyone know who the other male voice actor was from the Destiny Beta?

No, you're right. He does the intro to the strike. The Crucible quartermaster is also the announcer for PVP, too.Doesn't he also do the Titan trainer? Is the Titan trainer the guy narrating all of that stuff in universe?
Or maybe, I'm just losing my mind?
Ahh, I gotcha.No, you're right. He does the intro to the strike. The Crucible quartermaster is also the announcer for PVP, too.
I wouldn't get your hopes up...Please someone tell me he won't stay with you the entire game.
He's the Ghost, your personal robot companion.
He either had bad directing or phoned it in. BAD but bearable.
Even worse (I would call it catastrophic) is the MP/PvP/Crucible announcer. Oh my what an absolute trainwreck...
Limited edition run as well. It is specifically labeled for the Alpha on the back, and I really like that profits go to charity. It reminds me of their "kick the flood" charity shirt back in the day. I still have that one, and I plan to get this one too.Gotta love Bungie for doing stuff like this.
Here's the shirt in full glory:

His performance clearly stood out as the worst thing from the alpha.
He is great in game of thrones so I hardly think it's lack of skill. Mabye whoever is directiong the voice acting sticked with the "AI" idea and just told him to read the lines as if it was the first time he saw the script?
I remember thinking about this when I saw Her, and that movie made me realize that any AI worth a damn in the future would be able to replicate human emotion. I think the emotionless AI concept only belongs to our era, being a flat voice with no emotion just because we couldn't pull it off yet.It's not even clear to me that an AI should emote at all. A relatively flat delivery may be unexciting, but it may also be the reality of talking to a disembodied intelligence. It's also possible that the flat delivery becomes contextually humorous in situations that would warrant high emotion.
Is this their version of "owning" it? It doesn't exactly change their terrible writing.
Q. Hey, the Ghost dialog in the Alpha was totally final, right?
Hey, we read the same forums, my fictional, question formulating friend! In fact, the Ghost dialog has already been updated for Beta. It will be updated again for launch on September 9th, as well.
Funny thing about Alpha builds theyre not done. Please pardon our Moon dust!
I quite liked the PvP announcer, was fresh and not so clichéd.hes alright... the pvp announcer on the other hand is soft spoken and sounds bored.
So they had peter dinklage record new lines?From the weekly bungie update.

Reckon they should get a Yorkshireman to narrate instead, "wizard came from t'moon like."Now they need to fix The being in front of every noun in the game.
Accidentally picked the wrong region am I screwed?
