well be the one voicing the character in the trailer it certainly sounds like him and hes voiced enough fantasy baddies to give ganon or some alternative villain a good shot mercer also played ganondorf in 2009s smash bros fan film there will be brawl but i cant help feeling that this standard villain monologue does tears of the kingdom a disservice almost 20 years after the release of twilight princess i still remember the squawks and cries of zant as you battle him in the twilight realm or the snorting of ganons boar form in hyrule castle and much of wind wakers charm was its expressive exclamations the hips grunts and yells of a small hero barreling around hyrules celshaded islandswhen you sidestep the explanations and exposition of formal voice acting sound design comes in a much bigger way and id argue this feeds into the surreal mystical elements of the zelda games where you face magics and monsters beyond rational comprehension ganon looms large over the series as its primary antagonist and reducing him to a guy in a recording booth feels a little small compared to his huge mythological status and overt declarations of powerhungry ambitions can sound doubly flat when voiced out loud i imagine the voice acting is still limited to core characters zelda ganon the like so were not looking at months of development time being poured into recording branching dialogue trees throughout the game though that 70 price tag could say otherwisei just hope that tears of the kingdoms dev team hasnt forgotten about how terrifying unseen monsters or unheard villains can be because it leaves a gap where our imagination has to come in either way if we end up getting a playable zelda i think i can overlook itlove getting lost in virtual worlds check out the best rpg games for doing just that
