I can only read that as Morgan Freeman.  Who would give the best voiceover for the maiden voyage for my peckership.
Would love to have that man do the voice acting..... Morgan freeman is one of the best actor IMHO

Well... if you call that "Voice acting"

He is a great narrator but voice actor? I don't think I've heard him voice act ever.

And of course the numerous films he's acted in provide no indication whatsoever of his potential as a voice actor. After all, playing a character in person and playing a character with an animated body are entirely different things when it comes to the voice work. 103 films and five Oscar nominations for Best Actor and Best Performance mean nothing when it comes to his ability to portray a character's voice.

I don't think Gordon Freeman would be that good of a narrator.

It really doesn't. There are plenty of really great actors who cannot voice act (Commonly this is because of the different format, it throws quite a few of them off).

I don't say Gordan Freeman is automatically a good voice actor just because I liked him in Halflife.

He's an excellent actor and an excellent narrator. The simplest and most likely possibility is that he would also be a good VA. If someone is a good editorial writer and a good fiction editor, chances are they'd be a good editorial editor as well, other examples, etc. I think this is one of those times where you're being pointlessly cynical.

. . . Personally, Mr. M-Freeman leaves a. . . bitter taste in my mouth.

In other news, I sadly won't be blowing part of my entertainment budget on this game. To be quite frank, I'll. . . not finish this sentence for my own health.

I am rather impressed at the level of procedural generation for creatures, though. Props to the team, I say.

That's not very frank at all ;_;

C'mon, things are a little slow. Throw some discussion onto the fire. Or something. S'not like the on/off toggles in your computer we're communicating through can actually do anything to your health.

Well... barring some sort of harmful radiation. Or convincing your computer to ignite and/or explode. Or... well, the list goes on. Suffice to say they probably can do things to your health, but being frank isn't likely going to be the trigger for it.

... 'course, "isn't likely" doesn't necessarily entail "isn't", hum. Maybe it might be safer to just run for the hillsslowly back away from the computer.

Hey man, everyone has someone out there with a hate-on for 'em. It's like soulmates, just... antagonistic, universal, and not quite so terrible a concept.
