JiPInSane Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 Its to... Oh i dunno the word... but It just sounds.. very strange. too techy sounding... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenogear Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 I think the taunt would be very annoying after hearing it more then once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tap[RR] Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 To be blunt. It sounds like a retarded pit droid talking about his wrench. Its just that bad, skip that, and plo koon DOESNT speak telepathicly, the official starwars site says he talks. Maybe in the comics they say that, but we all know how those damn comics change and screw everything up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oobedoob Benobi Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 Yes I agree with both Tap and Xeno. I would much prefer Plo Koon to have a non-irritating taunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradFu Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 As promised, some home-made taunts that sound like I've always imagined he might sound like. http://windu.cjb.net/plokoon/plokoon1.mp3 http://windu.cjb.net/plokoon/plokoon2.mp3 http://windu.cjb.net/plokoon/plokoon3.mp3 Opinions? If you like the voice, but think you have a better idea for a line, let me know, I can do it, since those taunts above are just me, my laptop, and some software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philemon Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 Bradfu: your taunts are pretty good for Plo Koon Im just wondering if everyone else thinks the same as you Philemon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oobedoob Benobi Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 Nice BradFu! I like plokoon3 the most out of the taunts you have done so far. Just and idea for a taunt is "Your demise is inevitable." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BradFu Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 Originally posted by philemon Im just wondering if everyone else thinks the same as you Yep, exactly. This is how I picture his voice, others may picture it much different. If anyone can describe how they think he should sound, I can give that a try too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oobedoob Benobi Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 I think BradFu has the sound right. It souds like the voice for the Protos from Starcraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pud1 Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 since he uses that oxygen mask to breath maybe he should have a breathy sound. Not like vader, but maybe just a suggestion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradFu Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 Well, Plo Koon doesn't actually speak, he communicates telepathically, which is what I was going for with the sureallness of my recordings That's why the Clone Campaigns sounds don't really work, they're too metallic because one of the creators of that expansion pack apparently thought Plo speaks through his mask.

Klorel Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 well the protoss are telepathic too, if it sounds distorted, it will be like they are hearing his telepathic messages, its not like they are animating his mouth (does he even have one!?) so it could be telepathy in the form of sounds you think you hear. protoss-like sounds would be great.

inbredyokel Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 To me, the voice still sounds a bit too....robotic. I like the depth that it has(maybe a bit too deep, though), but I always imagined telepathy as sounding more echoey and calming, like in a dream. Kind of how it sounds when Ben says "Luke, use the force" during the first death star run, but with more distortion and echo. The current effect kind of makes me wonder if plo koon is possessed . It just seems a little angry and demonic, and thats not what I think of when the term jedi comes to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klorel Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 I think the reverb sounds fine. maybe do a little bit of an accent though, he sounds too old ben kenobi-ish. Maybe a mix between Boba Fett, an Irishman, and the reverb you got going on. I guess it would be a deep raspier version of the lucky charms guy. Its worth a try. Heck, why can't telepathic aliens have accents? but your definitelly on the right track with the protoss thing. thats what i think of when i think telepathy (for males). for females, it would be more like inbredyokel described, but i believe plo koon is male... then again, how would we know. most of you think mon mothma is female! lol.

Oobedoob Benobi Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 heheheh mon mothma is female http://www.starwars.com/databank/character/monmothma/eu.html Anyways I think the problem with the customization of the voice is that almost everyone is going to have a separate opinion. Maybe we are going to have to make another poll about the voice sound and then another one on what he says lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inbredyokel Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 I do have to agree with Klorel that no matter what effect you go for, it needs to have a bit of an accent and a little more expression in the voice. More of a calm warning of "Your demise is inevitable..." than a robotic "YOUR DEMISE IS INEVITABLE." Personally, I like "To oppose me is to oppose the Force" as a taunt.

Nanodagiardino Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 I don't remember who posted that it sounded like the protos, but now that I think about it, that's just how I imagined Plo Koon's voice!!! Something soft but powerfull, like the dark templars maybe. And since the protoss speak telepathicaly, it all makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinja Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 Well everybody who was interested the Robes or unrobed issue, the final poll results were 37 to 34 for UNROBED!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
