Meh, do what you want. Personally I think it's too soon and the warning is too vague.

I respect your opinion, but at the same time respectfully disagree with it.  If it says "Spoilers", then only two games that could apply to are Lords of Shadow and Harmony of Despair, they being the latest-released titles (maaaaaaybe Castlevania Adventure Rebirth).  I think the addition of "Spoiler" to the title of the poll is more than appropriate.

It's not about what the community and what I want are, it's about what's fair.  I don't think it's fair to chastise the thread creator for 'not being concrete enough' on the spoiler.  The fact that he even put "Spoilers" is already warranting merit.  At least he was considerate enough to put that there.

Quote from: Santa Count
But..is my information incorrect? Was Douglas Rye not his voice in CoD? I'm pretty sure he was.

After reviewing the CoD credits, I don't see Douglas Rye or Steven Jay Blum being credited anywhere. In fact it shows Crispin Freeman (Mathias from LoI) possibly reprising his role. It seems there might be a discrepancy (either on the internet or Konami's behalf)?



Hmm...

Hmm...

You sure that the Actor listing isn't for Motion Capture work? Reuben Langdon does a lot of that, as the motion capture artists between the PS2 Castlevania games and the Devil May Cry games were shared, of which he participated in. As does Adam Clark (listed as Adam D Clerk), who did voice AND motion capture work for Arkham in DMC3.

I'm gonna say Norio Wakamoto, he has such a great voice for villains. The voice of M.Bison / Vega / Dictator (Street Fighter) and Vicious (Cowboy Bebop) is the also the best Dracula voice for me.

Norio Wakamoto definitely has a distinctive voice. It was awesome hearing his as Dracula after hearing him in so many animes. 8)

Reuben only did motion capture for CoD. And Crispin Freeman was the voice actor for Hector in CoD, not Dracula. Adam D Clerk voiced Saint Germain and did motion capture for Issac for proof: (Adam D Clark as Issac and St Germaine). I have no clue who voiced Dracula though.

On topic, I liked Patrick Seitz the best as Dracula.

SotN. I do however think the Japanese voice on the SS version I have sounds really cool.

Having Crispin Freeman ham it up as Mathias in Lament was just plain awesome. I mean, his final little monologue about why he became a vampire was just great.

of course, Symphony Dracula is just plain classic as well.
