Who else thinks Nolan sounds terrible?!!
Dinklage was sooooo much better! People moaning that Dinklage underplayed it, but it was subtlety he was playing, as he is an ai ROBOT after all.
I know Nolan makes more sense as its his business and he's more readily available but now it sounds so cheep and over done. He sounds like he's permanently questioning himself. Ha
Peter Dinklage was awesome! If it ain't broke don't fix it!
But all the fussy childish players out there who thought "well it could be better", nagged away endlessly at Bungie, and Dinklage (which pissed me off) until we all get stuck with this shit "performance" (if that's what you wanna call it).
And now all the people who were amongst the bitchy little whine a lots that caused this mess, have realised that they should've been happy with a good thing and not chased after the mythical "perfect".
At least give us a setting to switch between the two voices for year 1 content so we have a choice!!!

Rant over.
EDIT - Wow THANKS for all the support guys!!! This post is blowing up! I had no idea that (near) EVERYONE else felt as strongly about this as me.
Thank you to all Guardians, keep the replies coming and maybe Bungie will add the voice toggle switch so we can have our little Dinklebot back for year one content.
Keep strong and I'll see you star side! =D

1 ReplyOMG.. Is that what it sounds like now? lol it's horrible. The ones that complained about DingleBot screwed up.. Now it's stupid.

I feel Bungie has made a tragic mistake using Nolan's voice, It has put me off playing Destiny. It is just so annoying and chirpy. Please Bungie give us the option to turn off the ghost voice like you can the music.

Me Sounds like a scared kid

Damn...I mean I knew some people didn't like dinklage but is it really that big of a deal? I guess I missed the memo, the forums were clogged with bitching and complaining about thorn, last word, icebreaker and ghorn so maybe that's why I didn't see this as an important issue. I mean I'm confused, does the voice of our ghost give you extra defense? Higher light level? Improved acuracy? Higher glimmer cap? Oh so the voice of the ghost doesn't do anything at all? Damn here I was this whole time thinking this was a semi important complaint or issue....now I realized that this is more of a personal issue... But I mean hey...you know what they say...if you want something done right....well I'm sure you know the rest.

4 RepliesI honestly believe that the "We've woken the hive!" line is the only line that is worse. Other than that he, in my opinion, is much better.

Edited by kellygreen45: 9/14/2015 2:00:35 PMDinklage has the better voice. But Noland is---far and away----the better voice actor. The difference is jarring at first. Both because of the difference in voice....but also because Noland embues the Ghost with a very different personality. Dinklage played the Ghost as some sort of schizo combination of C3P0's anxious fretfullness....and R2-D2's over-the-top bravado. The problem with that approach, is that you always HAVE to have the two together--in two SEPERATE PEOPLE----for that to work. It doesn't work in a single person. It doesn't make any sense that he's panicky when the Hive come pouring out of the Temple of Crota, and when we first encounter the Vex.....but then downright sardonic when we first encouter the Cabal ( Well I guess THAT must have been their failsafe). North plays the Ghost more like a "pocket Indiana Jones". A very intellectual....but consistently brave companion. But one given to moments of black humor (Snakes? Why did it have to be snakes??) . You don't hear the anxiety that you hear in Dinklage's voice when his Ghosts asks, "Can't we just stay here with the murderous robots?" Its more gallows humor. The same gallows humor you hear when playing the Garden Spire mission, and the Ghost has to open the door at the back of the Iron Line...and North Ghost says, "I best getting working on opening that door. YOU MIGHT WANT TO STAND BACK, YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WHEN i OPEN DOORS...." Give it time. My intial gut-reaction to North's performance was "I don't like it". But it was mainly that I don't care for high-pitched, nasal voices. Though once I got past that bias, I could see that he was doing a MUCH better job of bringing the Ghost to life than Dinklage did. ...and I think he's the better choice going forwards.

First anti-Noland post I've seen that wasn't rooted in homophobia. Personally I like both. I miss Dinklebot out of familiarity. Northbot doesn't bother me in the slightest.
-
The only reason I like Nolan better is because he kind of pays attention to the player and makes the game more inversive. If Dinklage did the same thing I'd like him waaay better.
-
No ghost dialog in either year one expansion. Dinklage was unreliable for this job. They had to get someone. They got a guy in the business. I think it bothers some because it's different. I bet many would feel the same if we started with Nolan and went to dinklage. It is awkward at first, but the more I play the more I like it.
-
The more i listen to Nolan the more I like him. I even made a post like yours a few days ago but now I kind have turned the other cheek

Edited by Impurity41: 9/14/2015 5:03:11 AMI like nolan's patrol text and just random comments. Diklage nailed the story and strikes. I need a more serious ghost that has that voice of concern but knows to stay calm and not freak out. I actually did the hive story mission to check out the "we've woken the hive" for myself and i gotta say. Dinklage you sound perfect. I think they should put nolan for the patrols and random stuff and dinklage for raids, story, and strikes. Or have the option to switch between at least.

Dinklage. I will miss you.

I prefer Dinklebot, seeing how North is freaking Nathan Drake I'm disappointed.

1 ReplyWhere were you guys when everyone was complaining about Dinklage? For me, I don't really care... they both are very good and although North's voice takes getting used to (high pitch and all), his rendition feels "engaging" yet holding to a sort of robotic persona. Think of him as the love-bot between C-3PO and Hal. Anyway, you can't please everyone and Dinklage had at least as many complainers as will North. Let's move on and talking about the Crux drop rate... or maybe making a super-hard mode for the existing raids.

6 RepliesI would have preferred Kevin Heart!! I wasn't ready!!!!!

He is awful. Just hope he has more to say and is more interesting with TRK.
-
I think he is awful. It's changed the whole mood of the game into a children's game. Maybe that's the way it's going. If so I am out.

I would pay for a Morgan freeman voice
