"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. | ||

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!). | ||
