Manfred Lehmann?
It would be nice when the german voiceover with Manfred Lehmann.
He sleeps 2 decades but for Cutter Slade is only five minutes.
Have you allready asked him?

For the english guys:
Manfred Lehmann is the voice from Bruce Willis and he sounds better as a original ;)

You mean to say he sounds better than the original? That's really your opinion and not a fact. I've heard both, but I think because you grew up with him as Bruce Willis it makes it sound right. I grew up in a country that doesn't dub the actors, and I'm firmly of the opinion that any dub and HDR always stands out. It always feels disconnected from the scene, so to me it can never sound as good as the original.

There are many examples where the German synchronization is better than the original. Of course, it also depends on the point of view. For German players, the German voice of Herr Lehmann would be great.

Manfred Lehmann wäre genial!

Lehmann ist 76 Jahre alt. Er könnte durchaus noch für den Ulukai sprechen. Würde es feiern. Frage ist immer wie teuer er ist. :8bithaa::Ulukai:
@Glemt just because the US grew up with english VO anime does not mean that it sounds good... it has its moments but Japanese IS supperior.

I heard both Bruce VA's and have to say, the OG bruce is better fit for it than our german one, althou he makes him sound badass 24/7, wich bruce realy isnt 24/7 in some movies.

Especiel in emotional scenes its lacking sadly. The infamous "We win Grace" was better done in english (Wich is rare) than in the German Dub. On the other hand "Your just a bunch of Cowboy's" was better in german realy. Stargate's Jack O'neil (wich slater is based on OBVIOUSLY (because badass, Jaffa slayer etc. (Yes i still refer to our advesaries in the first game as Goaul'd after all these years) thou its vice versa. He was waaaaay better in the german dub (Just compare the Baal scene in the gateroom where he blames it all on Tuna rather than him being lazy and having a plant problem, in german he sounds like he just ate exactly what he said)

while this won´t influence my decision to buy the game, i would love to get the old voice actor back.

Slater..? Slade. I was put off for a second there. Haven't played this title in years basically.

Half or maybe entirely off-topic and unrealistic (for now, even tho possible so not really unrealistic) rambling:

There's so much happening with AI's now (DALL-E 2, Deepmind, OpenAI, MidJourney.. it's a plethora of them!), synthesizing amazing images most notably (look up "Two Minute Papers" on youtube for example). Possible with audio as well.

Probably a licensing / copyright issue if using a person's voice, plus ofc the cost-benefit thing. I guess it's not a very mainstream thing yet either (for all we know... I mean, deepfakes exists). Point is it's possible to syntesize it, and not sound robotic (ofc quality depends on so many factors).

(Heck, we may soon get the (VR) equivalent of Star Trek Holodeck, where all we say is "yeah I want a cool game with stargates, aliens and spaceships and a lone hero story thing going on" and it'll make a game on the fly. Maybe present a few alternatives and fine tune it a few iterations, and then "Enter when ready"! :) )

Wer das spricht ist mir ziemlich egal. Es muss nicht Manfred Lehmann sein. Immerhin gibt es deutsches Audio und das ist schon einiges wert in der heutigen Zeit. Die meisten Firmen sparen das Geld ja mittlerweile und das THQ das weithin finanziert rechne ich ihnen sehr hoch an.

Die deutsche Sychronstimme von Cutter Slade wurde mittlerweile bereits offiziell bestätigt:

Es ist Torsten Münchow

Ich finde eine sehr gute Wahl (siehe Beispiel): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRzKOPZuljQ&t=6s
