Voice Over for Games: Speakers for computer games & games

With films, series and even advertising, it is now common practice to dub appropriately. Professional speakers are used who can accurately convey different situations or emotions. But now it's not just about setting blockbusters to music. Various video games also need an ideal soundtrack for different sequences. Above all, well-known and prominent voices are very well received by gamers and cause enthusiasm. 

This inspires fans and gamers with professional voice-over

Some film lovers may turn up their noses, but for true computer fans they are the ultimate: well-known speakers who are used for their games. The voice actors give the characters more life thanks to their voices. After all, it is also important to create a certain atmosphere and convey emotions. With a lot of sensitivity and the right speaking power, it is possible to give the game more authenticity. It is not only important to master your craft, but also to have the right amount of experience. 

After all, setting computer games to music is anything but easy, but a real challenge for many speakers. A good soundtrack usually lasts several hours. It is first necessary to summarize texts and go through them with speakers. Only then can there be a soundtrack. 

In addition to conveying credible feelings, the creation of a successful atmosphere also plays an important role. In this context, many inexperienced speakers have their difficulties. Here not only clear and distinct pronunciation, but also good articulation and high intonation are decisive. For this reason, more and more game developers are resorting to prominent voice actors. 

High-quality games rely on star casts

Fans of computer and video games, like cinema fans, have certain expectations before viewing. If this is not met, it usually rains harsh criticism. Therefore, productions should not necessarily save on speakers. Because only high-quality films and games can score with players and viewers. 

When it comes to excellent games that are advertised for several months and welcomed with joyful anticipation, the mood can go down the drain if the soundtrack is bad. The characters in the game should not only look as realistic as possible; their voices should also fit and convey feelings. The better the character is equipped, the more players can identify with the character and fully immerse themselves in the game. 

A less good speaker destroys the mood of the game. If the synchronization is wrong or if the voice doesn't match the character, the fun falls by the wayside. A familiar voice, perhaps from the cinema or an advertising voice, who knows how to deal with the game and the characters, on the other hand, triggers true storms of enthusiasm. Here, playing the game can bring a feeling like in the cinema and is even desirable for the video gamer. If such moods germinate, the game is a success across the board. 

Speakers and productions have to overcome a number of hurdles. Not every translation succeeds as desired. This is because English sentences are often shorter or more concise than in German. So sometimes the meaning can be lost, but this hardly causes resentment in the player. Rather, dubbing is treated as an art form. This creates a growing community of fans who are enthusiastic about the game. 

Last but not least, it is thanks to the voice of the narrator who has made an effort and committed himself to the game. Thanks to the credibility and the necessary empathy, he can make certain game parts appear boring, painful, dramatic, loving or funny. Often it's just one sentence, but it fits the situation and picks up the player completely. Not everyone can dub, but if you use your voice well, you can provide excellent soundtracks for both movies and games.
