That sounds pretty awful. Not to mention very unlikely.

A world the scope of Skyrim AND a traditional Zelda quest with ten retardedly convoluted dungeons? And four player coop in a 3D game? Nintendo is not known for giant budgets.

Oh and recording voicework for every character in the game... in a gibberish language? Stupidest idea ever.

Banjo Kazooie did it.


No, banjo Kazooie just had sound effects that played when characters talked.   That's a bit different than what the post suggested.  If I read what the post suggested correctly, they want to make a Tolkein-like elvish language and do all the voice recording in that.

Even IF they're doing the Banjo method though, it's still retarded.  It was annoying in Banjo, but tolerable cause it was a platformer with little dialogue and low emotional stakes.  In a game like Zelda, it wouldn't work.

well It might work out. I play a lot of games that have japeneese voice acting only, and the text is english. I actually don't mind it, and I find it kinda entertaining at times, cause their language is kinda pretty lol having an elvish like language would be somewhat similar imo

as long as it doesn't sound to goofy, I think it would work out ok.

who knows, maybe they're just doing this just so they don't have to dub it for other languages. its def less costly.
