Midnight Paradise Voice Acting

Well... if only few parts are voiced it would be sad. All or Nothing normally. But in this case. If there are only sex scenes voiced it would be ok... ;-P

My experience with full voice acted games is very disappointing, so I have to vote against.

JimMorrisonIsAlive1969

well, i vote for voice acting eailier. but i change my mind recently. 2 reasons for that, 1. voice acting quality does matter, sometime it will just fuck up the whole gamming experience. 2. how costly it is to you? your cgs and animations are the best among all i have played on patreon. the story itself is much better than i expected. i think for the time being , it'd be better that to keep up with the good job you have done. if you wanna try voice acting stuff, it would be better if you try it on a little piece of indiviual extra content and see the reaction of other supporters.

I think it's better without voice acting. I'm sure it adds alot of nuance to the creator and as the consumer it tends to get in the way/ sound a bit corny, even if well done

Vortex

Sound effects and moaning for sex scenes over voiced dialogue. Voice acting would be cool but worry that it would slow development. Sound effects first.

I think its better without it. You will waste time and money with it and in the end it could turn out to be horrible. I´ ve played a few games with voiceacting and it sucked.

Stormyse

DFD does it, and honestly I find it jarring. The voice actresses aren't good matches or the audio is off

I don't think that's a huge thing worth spending a lot of money on. It's a nice thing but nothing more. Do it if you can't improve anymore other sides of the game in my opinion.

MrAbusay

Imo you should focus more on quality animations

Austin Schmidt

The voice actress for ms turner did a great job, more is most welcome

Voice acting inflects emotion. When I watch anime, I prefer the original language to catch how they're feeling, and then I use subtitles.

Voice acting is always a plus.

I can't get the games to download. The compressing and then uncompressing of the files is beyond my limited computer skills.

I'd rather have more animated scenes instead.

I feel that adding voice acting to a visual novel takes away from the 'fantasy' of the story. being told. One envisions or 'hears' the characters talking in their own manner. In the past, with other games that have attempted voice acting, after a few scenes, I had to turn it off. If you decide to go ahead with voice acting, please add a feature to disable it. Thanks, Dr. Sin.

I have always turned off voice acting. Even those that have been highly recommended have sounded artificial. (I'm thinking of Daughter for Dessert here.) There's probably a reason for that. I doubt if you are going to get Meryl Streep and Robert De Niro to take the job. So, if you do go with voice acting, if I actually play the game, it will be with voice off. I probably won't be too pleased that it will take resources that could be used elsewhere, take longer to download, and take up space on my computer for something I won't be using. Perhaps you could create a download without voice acting... another drain of resources. Arrgh!

I personally feel that voice acting, when done right, can help add the right emotion that you want to convey in any game (regardless of genre) you may not be able to get across the right way just through text. One of the reasons why I'm not a huge fan of text messaging in general 🙂 So I'm all for it, and can't wait to see what you come up with if you choose to add it. But, I also think having an option for people to toggle the voice acting on/off is worth adding for those that may not feel the same way. I think in the end you should do what is right for your vision of the game.

I guess it all depends of the quality of the acting, but overall, yeah - voice acting usually helps. You guys always deliver, so I'm not worried about the quality of the acting.

Remplier

Animated scenes would be great, especially intimate scenes

well as long as you can turn it off, I don't care :D

I would love full VA. But, if the player will Be the MC then no VA for the MC since it needs to really feel like i am the MC. However, if the MC is pre-defined and only being controlled by the player, then yes, VA for the MC too.

Xegrid's point #2, above, is exceptionally insightful. If you include voice acting, 80/20 I will end up turning it off. His point #1 is also worth considering. Based upon my rig and internet pipe, you could triple the DL size and I could care less. But I would be willing to guess that a very high percentage of your patrons would have real issues with the resource size of voice files. Suggestion: if you go that way, make sure they are a separate DL, much as "extras" files are for many authors.

Thanks

unfortunatly adding voice acting almoust never goes well in a porn game, 1. it will eat A LOT MORE RESURSES 2. the players already have "given" a voice to the characters and thus you will make them go "hold on this is not the voice i imagined for this character" 3. if something happens to a voice actor ( does not want to continue work / changes his mind) than you are in an bad spot as well in short voice acting while temting, in the long run it will cause problems for both the players and the dev

I think it could make it more fun but I would not want the mc to have a voice only text for them.

I've tried this on my game spellbound potions. It was never finished. But I wanted full voice acting. We didn't have as many online tools back then 10 years ago but I can say that it is rough. If you don't already know quite a few good actors it's rough to find good actors and actresses. Also it's a huge pain to direct them. I'm not sure how much experience you have with VO, Just wanted to warn how hard it is from experience.

Nevenga Games

Oh, the MC will have a preset name:)

Lewdlab

I think it could be a Fallout 4 job and ruin the game a little. I think. Much prefer the idea that it is me in the game.

Will it affect production times? Yes. Drastically? Ideally not.

Lewdlab

I think if you do a fully voice acted game you should have the name of the mc be chosen by vote as well. Then there wouldn’t be any pauses or silence when the names arise.

Triscuit

I'll be honest as cool as it would be the question is will it slow down production time drastically
