(Anonymous) 2013-07-18 01:48 pm (UTC)(link)I know what you mean. The new design, with the Diamond Dogs uniform and that hat and the sunglasses and the leather gloves... It's somehow even better IMO than the PW look. I had no idea I'd say this, but seriously. It's so... COOL. Also the voice has changed so much, but I think the guy is the same, right? Just playing it raspier because it's been 10 years. But yeah, that guy is SO great too, very good voice. :D
Re: op
So he's probably who you're thinking of; Hayter's voice definitely became a lot raspier in recent years (and games), but the official reason that Kojima hired Keifer was because he wanted a trained actor who could fully express himself through his facial expressions. (Hence the motion capture.)
So far I do like Sutherland's voice, though. It's different, but isn't too jarring. It's just that when I think of Snake or Big Boss my mind hears Hayter, so it's a change one has to get used to.

(Anonymous) 2013-07-18 09:06 pm (UTC)(link)I like KS's voice too better than Hayter. But seriously, I think it was not his fault if he went always too deep and ruined most of the dialogue (at least this is my opinion), because when he uses it well he's actually good. They should have asked him not to go deep like that and it would have been fine, I think. I mean, it's not like he talks like *that* IRL, is it? I don't think any human but Batman sounds like that IRL.
Re: op
And I love Hayter's voice acting, but in recent years there has been a decline. I'm not sure it's something he can actually help, tbh. Maybe that's just how his voice is changing as he ages and he can't do the same Snake voice. (Which I bet is another reason Hideo changed voice actors.)
Re: op
They've actually got Kiefer Sutherland as BB now! I'm really glad for the change. I love David Hayter but his time has been up for quite some time now. He'll always be Solid Snake to me, but Big Boss is getting older and going through a change. He needed someone different and Kief is PERFECT. None of my friends believed me when I told them he'd be awesome and that he'd previously done voice acting in some anime before. Now they're all shitting their pants over him and all I can say is I told them so!
