Thanks for the kind words. Just a quick note that I won't be attempting to do the Mandalorian role so there's no competition between me and anyone else. However, if anyone else would like to try the Hijata role, please do! I sincerely hope that someone better comes along to bring Hijata to life. (And not just because it saves me the work! LOL)

Not bad, @Salk. Better than I expected, honestly I don't think your accent is a problem at all, as there are plenty of characters with different accents throughout the game. Mic quality is really the only obstacle. But @Sith Holocron is also a serious contender, and I think the hired VA did a great job too. Here's my edit, with carefully edited bass/treble, fade in/out and silence: nm35aavict23000_Salk_km_edit_v2.wav

@Salk I preferred your version! Your accent is great, and the professional seemed lifeless. Did he view the scene in-game to see what was happening? @Sith Holocron Nice job!

I must say you did an impressive job editing that file, KnifeMaster. Thank you. I still feel like it's best to go for the VA though. SithHolocron 's take is fine by me but I think his voice is still being affected by his cold a little. Nice presentation though. 👌

@AmanoJyakuTruth to be told, he didn't get to see the scene itself. He just recorded on script inputs from me but I did mention we were talking of a tortured, tired and angry person. I'm not sure it would have made much of a difference. But when I tested the actor's VO in the game I thought it did fit in quite nicely. Granted, it is not the best possible version but I think it's the best solution. My own take wasn't bad in my own opinion but I tend to dislike my voice and I'd honestly hear someone else's, especially if we are talking of a trained VA.

I wound up trying out for Hijata. This is really more of a test of my recording space as I'm getting over a cold but why not share the results? But if Salk wants the files, I sent them to him to do what he wishes. The outtake line at the end has an uninvited guest.

I got the VO from the actor and I must say it's quite good although I believe I have done a decent job myself so I'm not at the moment sure which one I should go for. Perhaps you can help me make a decision. I will upload one line delivered by myself and one by the actor so you all get to chime in and tell me about your preference. UPDATE: Here it is. I do have a cold and don't have a good mic or anything remotely professional so the audio quality's difference is noticeable. But it's just an initial test. I think the actor did a very good job. My only concern was that I didn't hear much pain in his voice as you'd expect from a tortured prisoner. nm35aavict23000_[Actor].wav nm35aavict23000_[Salk].wav
