[h2]Hi there.[/h2] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/34901413/8a3f8c1c86ea595b8d32fcbd803c59334026c70a.png[/img] I want to tell you one more interesting fact. We tried to make sure that the game did not have a voice-over, well, because, you know, costs. Our grumbling was simple: it needs to be recorded in English, it needs to be recorded in Polish, and it may need to be recorded in other languages... And if later we make some changes in the script, well, then we have another problem. Voice over is out. Unfortunately. It didn't fall out. The more work we put into bringing the world to life, the more we added sounds, animations, and other nitpicks, and the more the feeling that the experience was incomplete nagged at us. Intuition told us that a narrator to guide the player through this dark and depressing world was the missing piece. Well, we trusted our intuition. We gave it a try, and what was heard, will not be heard again. In the Polish version, we made a voiceover with our efforts and the result allows us to smile with self-satisfaction. For the English version, we will look for a suitable person. [previewyoutube=n-ND8K6XSt8;full][/previewyoutube] What impact has the addition of a voiceover had on the work so far? Contrary to appearances, quite a lot. Well, the script of Mercyful Flames was written in the second person, a style known from paragraph games or RPG sessions. In the case of our game, we decided that a first-person narrative, which allows us to report on events in a somewhat storytelling style, would best suit the proposed dynamics. Besides, the inquisitor's story is very personal, and the presented course of events comes out most credibly when the author of the reflections is the main character. Sooo... We have already added a voiceover to the first scenario and it works.
